Personally i think it's ruggedman. I want your opinion. You're free to bif.

i feel MODENINE gatz the lyrics. his style is just too tite. 1!

rugged man i kind'a more entertaining than nine but all d' same nine is lyricly impressive.

9 is a lyrical thug.,

Although i think mode nine or dr ninestine is very good i think ruggedman is better in not only lyrics but also in videos and deliveries mode nine is perhaps the second best in nigeria after ruggedman.

That is a freaking, fxcking, lie if ever i've heard any

Dunno who to pick. I think Modenine is coming up.

Dunno who to pick. I think Modenine is coming up.

mode is a lyricist an he deserves a lyrical crown.forget about the entertainment rugged man give but view who`s the best from what they speak.   GO EN CHEEK MODES LYRICAL CONTENT!!!  HE IS THE BEST

modenine all d way!
that 'cry' is off the hizzle.
he's a great lyricist.

bee22 u can lie o,who says 9 is hot
i dont think u've heard ruggedie's latest
its da bomb

@babonboard:u must have a problem with identifying great lyrical content.
Any1 that thinks Rugged is better lyrically does not know how to appreciate music.

Rugged's ok but 9 off the hizzy.NO CONTEST!!!!!!!!!!!

haba my dear dont take it personal now,
u should know that ruggidie is tite aite

This is not meant to be a topic @ alllllll, ruggedman is nowhere to be found when u talk bout modenine, even sixfootplus got mo lyrics dan rugged man nd ya'll shudn't foget bout eldee d don.

Too many niggas got a sof' head for the kind of hard metaphors nine kicks.
That's why folks be sayin rugged over nine.
Modenine got five mics in the sauce!


Most of y'all couldn't analyse sh*t with pupils up your butts.

yo tianshie u sound like u iz a metaphorian, wat's gud

rugged has got tight lyrical delivery that makes u move ur body.no doubt even the haters know this, but nine's kinda music is not for evry1 more for the hardcore heads,

@hoodboi
You bet I'm a metaphor matador.

Moe9 still remains the man with the real and natural flows but ruggedman is trying but likes to criticize other that is why i dont like him.

can someone send or upload one of mode9's tracks cuzz i havent heard any. dont give me a site cuzz those sites dont play well on my pc.

i have only heard ruggedman so i will go with him.

Modenine's Pentium IX(a fresh mixtape) with 21 tracks is out and hot. The production is basically done by Jonah the Monarch with songs like 'Pentium IX', 'Gentle Wind' and 'Pains' featuring Amaka of the Thoroughbred, Pissing me off, King of the Jungle, Blimey, Underground King feat. Cashino, Spazmodic feat. Terry the Rapman etc.

Mode in spazmodic promise that his next album soon to be out later this year will be 'commercial'. who know if it got some club bangers going by the calibre of producer his is working with presently (Cobhams, Jonal the Monarch and Paul Play) on the much anticipated album titled “E pluribus unum”, (one amongst many)

i will not lie but i dont feel that guy modenine but feel ruggedman listen to is lyrics baraje u feel him but modenine is dead for me

lady kool i think u iz like a lil more of the type dat likes dancehall nd stuff dat's why u don't feel modenine, modenine spit hardcore lyrical stuff, ruggedman is a entertainer modenine is a emcee.

i sincerely do not believe that ruggedman has enuff lyrical capabilities to eat up mode 9, thats jus my personal opinion but then again when someone can sit down and come up with a track like ehen to kill eedris then thats a sensible talented person who used his comedic ability to help give him fame,

mode 9 is known for his word play and all, but he has never really been in the spotlight of a real challenge, no one ever really challenged him bcoz he brainwashed the people with so much of those word play and punchlines that he almost scared everyone away. therefore until someone had the courage, he was in a league of his own, now shit done changed, ghetto p don tear the guy yansh and ruggedman comin thru to eat him up, even 2 shotz got eef with dude, so yeah, far as ruggedman Vs mode 9, hmmmm lets c, let em put out diss records aimed at eachother not no subliminals, feel me?

see, RUGEEDMAN, got the lyrics,MODENINE,got the fast rapping stuff,so when both of them meets, its going to be the clash of titans,IT'S GONNA BE THE BOMB

I like this. Now to educate you folks.
Let's take a look at two things here, Style and culture. While i belive Mode is the tightest lyricist in naija i still thing he doesn.t have the identification of a true Nigerian rapper. Man however relates to the people with his music. Take 4 example Ruggeddie Baba. The Yoruba chorus would appeal to any, while still maintaining it's hip hop alure. Mode only recently though released a track called " Lagos state of mind " Which trys to give thesame feeling. Cry wasn't so bad either! As far as Style is concerned, I give it to Mode. But $ the African ID. Def" The Rug'Master!.

Don't compare these two on thesame grounds. Both are Hot. Nigerias Finest in the rap game.
As far as radio and acceptability goes, Rugged would rate higher. But Lyricaly and Underground? Mode!

"Radio? Said I'd never make it, Psyhce! I gat chemistry with the mic and got Kemistry on the mic giving me hype" >MODE9

His words !

Modenine in a recent radio interview said, 'even your grand mum will go for modenine's next album'- that is to show he really wants to go commercial as he promised in Spazmodic, and that he has being misunderstood by many who think he's against pidgin raps which he's not- only wackness.

Another interesting thing is that, Ruggedman's next album will be out before Mode's so, incase of any diss from Rugged as it's speculated, mode will definately reply. After all, in the same radio interview, he said 'I'm being silent because my name has not been mentioned yet'.

mode the best

Ruggedman definately gets the naija dance floor moving and, Modenine with the bravest lyrics for now still gets ya head bobbing.

Aint nuthing mo to say about this.Nine is the illest mc to grace naija airspace.Comparing him wit Rugged is an insult to his skillz!!

Mos def Mode 9.Why compare them? Ruggedman ain't shit when u compare him with Mode 9.

Can't remember but i heard this nursery rhymes from Ruggedman

It was an insult
i took with a pinch of salt
and a bottle of malt

What da f**k? I ain't a hater but Mode 9's got his game tight and far ahead.
Compare "Mode 9 and freestyle"
