When the conversation about the greatest MCs or lyricists in rap history is broached, this smooth ladies’ man’s name, Big Daddy Kane’s, name almost always floats to the surface — and not just by rap fans but by other hip hop legends themselves.
“To me, Big Daddy Kane is still today one of the best rappers,” Ice T testified not too long ago. “I would put Big Daddy Kane against any rapper in a battle. Jay-Z, Nas, Eminem, any of them. I could take ‘Raw’ right now and put it up against any record [from today]. Kane is one of the most incredible lyricists… and he will devour you on the mic. I don’t want to try to out-rap Big Daddy Kane. Big Daddy Kane can rap circles around cats.”
Ice T rests his case. Your honor, the witness may step down.
