Yeah, rightly said imho

If you've got contrary opinions, let's discuss..

I quite agree with you. But don't know why his music is not widely marketed and circulated...

It seems u haven't heard of rappers like vector, erigga, m. I, phyno, olamide, phenom, etc. What i have learnt about rap is that we shud nt call a single rapper the best cos all of his songs cannot be said to be outstanding, some songs must definitely fall below standard

If Modenine is the best rapper dead or alive, M I then is god

FirstCounsel:

I think his music isn't generally accepted here because,

Firstly, man is super intelligent, easily above average, his word play is superb, and you gotta be really smart to decipher his lyrics, which means that his music is above average mind understanding. No offense meant!

Secondly, we aren't used with that hardcore raps here, his music is better suited for the westerners, that's why dude relocated back to UK and stopped making music here, if people can't dance to it, it won't sell here, the main reason that CDQ would sell more than Vector any day and anytime.

And even more worse, the show promoters and the media give less importance to anything that isn't afro pop, no media coverage to them at all. Terry tha Rapman is 20x better than Zlatan in quality, but where is dude today in the industry?

MI is overated bro, I've listened to both of em, Polymaf is way above him, in Africa rap industry, Modo is the One Above All.

Go the two bros out on YouTube, and compare and contrast their works, the difference is clear like a day. Don't even compare MI to Ruggedman bro, that one would murdered him lyrically, pair him with Vector or Terry.

Wrt to your last lines, you're absolutely right! Quality of works of course won't be always the same, it's the same with everyone (all artistes), however, book a date with his discography, it easily dwarfs other rapper's own, including the ones you listed.

Besides Vector and M-I, AQ isn't match with all those guys quality wise.

Brother, M I has been and would remain the best rap act ever from Nigeria. In fact, Choc boiz would come 123 before any other person.

The only rapper to feature M I and was “noticeable” is Yung6ix and the track was Export... M I murdered that track, just that Yung6ix came above expectations.

M I is not just the best but has been the standard.
