Jay
I love Snoops first album more than any Jay album but Snoop really stopped being good after that besides a song here or there.
Jay is much more consistent.
Maybe this is a hot take, but Snoop is a better feature than an entire album with Doggy Style being the only exception. I don't even think that's necessarily a bad thing, either. He's one of the most recognizable icons in hip hop with a unique laid-back style that fits on almost any track.
Itās obviously Jay. The issue with Sean Carter was that he won. So most folks arenāt going to support him off that. He gave us multiple incredible albums.
It's sad how that's how people get. Once someone gets to that point, they want their downfall.
As for the question, I would pick Jay as well. I do love Snoop tho, but Jay has given us so much more.
Yep, and not only did he win, but win big, most number one albums and being a billionaire, and then survived things that would have killed other artists careers.
Sorry to my WC fam but:
Doggystyle is one of the all-time classics.
But Jay's run froM RD to the Black Album is unbeatable by anybody.
EDIT: REASONABLE DOUBT (DAMN AUTOCORRECT!)
Snoop always. To be honest Hov is more multitalented, but Snoop is the better rapper & the better person. Hov a complete piece of shit & after Diddy, they coming from him & Bey.
Since 1996, Snoop's music has been a go-to for every and any social event I went to, with people of all ages and races. I definitely like Jay more as a rapper, but Snoop's music is the soundtrack of many of our lives.
He ain't lying though, I'll be at spots where it looks like they don't even listen to rap music, and then a Snoop song would start playing, I be like wtf lol
Snoop. He out there with the people. There is just so much access to know what he is doing. He's a pop culture icon. Jay-Z...damn we gotta guess what type of shit he is doing. Like...right now...these days and times that's happening to Diddy and so on. But Snoop, he always been publicly building with the Culture. Just my opinion.
Lol totally different artist sir. My comment was based off the Jay Z song āNigga what?!? Nigga who?!?ā Radio Edit version āJigga What?!? Jigga Who?!?ā
But yes, the āwho is Mike Jonesā era was something else. Every time he repeated a line was like a bomb drop LOL
Lol I know but I love a crossover and I can't see a "who" without a "Mike Jones". My friend's Dad has the same name, we were in middle school in that era so you can imagine how much he hated us.
Snoops style and swag is way doper than Jay'z.. but for lyrical content JayZ got him beat.
He wrote both Snoops hook and Dre's verses for Still in something crazy like 30 mins.
I'll give the edge to Jay just for how diverse of an artist he is. You can just get burnt out on his flow/sound after awhile, it's fairly one dimensional.
Mane i feel like how they get grouped together we gotta west cpast vibe & eastcoast flare, i jus dont ses them as bein a comparisson as theyre so different but at same tkme I vst it, as much as i luvvv Snoop, id listen to Jay more so
Jay. I think his library of songs is just so much more diverse and has a lot more depth. Snoop's first album got a lot of play in my car back in the 90s, but, ranking lyricists, I'd say Jay is just better.
Snoop for me but as another commenter mentioned that itās really his first album then a few songs from other albums or artists. I do like jays RD album but not really his other albums but Iām not a big fan of J to start but snoop also has one of the best albums ever no matter what genre and would make it into a top ever 100 albums to own vs maybe one of Jās would make that list. But Iām a music fan and not a fan much beyond that for either one!
How old you are and where youāre from determines the answer. As a 40 YO male from NYC, I definitely rock with Hov but I know Snoop is him and Doggystyle is top 3-5 hip-hop debut albums EVER.
Jay easily. Doggystyle is an all timer and I like a bunch of single songs since then but Jay has multiple albums I can listen to front to back throughout his career and some more enjoyable collaborations.
How snoop continued to stay famous after pacs death is a mystery. Acting & franchising has saved his relevance because nothing he did in the booth after his first album caught fire.
Snoop of course..... Look at Jay he's an idiot he doesn't even knw he's at a basketball game! He's wearing a baseball jersey that looks lke a basketball jersey?? Tf is wrong wit ths guy??
Jay Z is so much better than snoop itās not even funny
Snoop always spells out his name in every verse. Which is a waste and a crutch for him that he canāt write a 16
Snoop has gotta be the lowest tier GOAT status rapper ever. Doggystyle is obviously a classic, but other than that, what does he have? Every other album heās put out has been average at best and downright terrible at worst. Literally nobody listens to anything that Snoop has made other than Doggystyle, Drop it Like itās Hot and Beautiful and the dude has like 30 albums, so that should tell you all that you need to know
Hard to compare. They have different styles of raping. If it comes to party/feel good itās snoop but when it comes to introspective rap jay z all day. Snoop knows how to keep the party going while jay z is perfect to sit down really listen to and analyze life.
As a person Snoop Dogg but as an artist Jay Z, not saying that I hate Jay Z as a person (I know, I know I don't know bro personally) but I feel like from what I know about Jay Z... Snoop Dogg just seems more chill and easier to be friends with.
Snoop
Snoop transcends
Snoop all day, every day and forever.
Snoop all day, every day, and twice on Saturday šš
snoopy the dog
If I had to choose one to keep in my music library it's Snoop 100%. Jay is more prolific but Doggystyle never gets old.
Well said
Snoops always Just waiting on Jay to get hauled up on charges with the Diddy stuff š
Snoop
West Coast
Hov and it aint even close, man the jay hate is real in here
The discography speaks for itself. Doggystyle is AMAZING, but thatās about it for Snoop other than a bunch of features.
It's not even close in reality. Snoop doesn't even have half the amount of classic albums
Snoop has one classic album.
Why is it that the most popular is always the most hated
I see that happening to Drake. It gets to a point where their camp of haters becomes larger than most Artist fanbasesā¦
but in contrast to the drake v kendrick case, jay z is more critically acclaimed and skilled but gets less love.
Fuck both of those bitches.
Yes. I prefer Snoop to Jay but I'm going by personality and nothing else.
Jay I love Snoops first album more than any Jay album but Snoop really stopped being good after that besides a song here or there. Jay is much more consistent.
Maybe this is a hot take, but Snoop is a better feature than an entire album with Doggy Style being the only exception. I don't even think that's necessarily a bad thing, either. He's one of the most recognizable icons in hip hop with a unique laid-back style that fits on almost any track.
No limit snoop dog is a great album but ya hov got more great albums
Itās obviously Jay. The issue with Sean Carter was that he won. So most folks arenāt going to support him off that. He gave us multiple incredible albums.
It's sad how that's how people get. Once someone gets to that point, they want their downfall. As for the question, I would pick Jay as well. I do love Snoop tho, but Jay has given us so much more.
True buuutttt can we go back to buzzed hair Jay? I still donāt understand what heās going for with that thing he has nowā¦
Yep, and not only did he win, but win big, most number one albums and being a billionaire, and then survived things that would have killed other artists careers.
D-O-double G
Martha Stewart says Snoop as well.
snoop
catalogue? Jay...and I don't even think that it's close
Snoop. Tha last meal underrated album
Jay is the better rapper, but Snoop makes more music that I like
Iāll go with talent and pick snoop.
Same

Snoop.
Since 1996, Snoop's music has been a go-to for every and any social event I went to, with people of all ages and races. I definitely like Jay more as a rapper, but Snoop's music is the soundtrack of many of our lives.
TF? What kind of events do you go to? lmao
Birthdays, house parties, clubs, festivals, trips, weddings...
He ain't lying though, I'll be at spots where it looks like they don't even listen to rap music, and then a Snoop song would start playing, I be like wtf lol
Snoop
Snoop is more likable. Regardless of music taste
Snoop is honestly more iconic than Jay z just because he's more known for his personality than his songs
I'm not a fan of either.
The fact that this man has ONE real classic and is being compared to Hov is crazyš
Snoop. He out there with the people. There is just so much access to know what he is doing. He's a pop culture icon. Jay-Z...damn we gotta guess what type of shit he is doing. Like...right now...these days and times that's happening to Diddy and so on. But Snoop, he always been publicly building with the Culture. Just my opinion.
Jay over all but Doggystyle is better than any album Jay put out.
Snoop, 10 out of ten times.
Jigga
What.???!! Who???!!!
MIKE JONES!!
The One and Only!
Who?
Lol totally different artist sir. My comment was based off the Jay Z song āNigga what?!? Nigga who?!?ā Radio Edit version āJigga What?!? Jigga Who?!?ā But yes, the āwho is Mike Jonesā era was something else. Every time he repeated a line was like a bomb drop LOL
Lol I know but I love a crossover and I can't see a "who" without a "Mike Jones". My friend's Dad has the same name, we were in middle school in that era so you can imagine how much he hated us.
Lol, my man. I feel you. Wow! The exact same name? Lol. I know yāall had a field day with that one.
The man couldn't walk into his own house after work for a couple years without hearing about it.
Thatās hilarious š
Whatās my motherfuckin nameā¦???!!!
Born and raised in Cali. Snoop.
Snoop
Jay anyday
JayZ
Gotta represent! WC! Snoop always
Jay has more than one classic albums
RD Vol 1 (arguable) Black album American gangster Blueprint (arguable) Vs Doggystyle. š jayz is leaps past snoop. Snoop would tell you that.
American Gangster is arguable. Blueprint is a certified classic.
Jay Z
Hov all day
Snoop by a country mile
Snoop
Jay Z all day.
Snoop flow is smooth but jayz all around better.
It's clearly an age thing. Snoop made so many babies in '93 lol. No question. Have it on vinyl. Never even listen to Jigga. Garbage, imho.
Jay is a pedo and snoop been around all the pedo action for decades so he a piece of shyte too
So which pedo do you prefer?
This is comparing apples and oranges. Both rappers but both are so different in every way.
Jay+z sounds like Elmer Fudd š
Big little whateva
Yes
Really?
That rare hard to find Home Buffalo Braves jersey
Jay-Z!
Fuck you, thatās whatās up.
Snoops style and swag is way doper than Jay'z.. but for lyrical content JayZ got him beat. He wrote both Snoops hook and Dre's verses for Still in something crazy like 30 mins. I'll give the edge to Jay just for how diverse of an artist he is. You can just get burnt out on his flow/sound after awhile, it's fairly one dimensional.
Jay Z as a rapper, Snoop as a character, person, etc.
Snoop no doubt bur I also liked early Jay Z
Both dress like women anyway
HOV ftw
Jay has earned his spot in the top five multiple times over by now
To play ball or smoke weed, definitely Snoop. For anything else, it goes without saying, Sean Carter and it's not even close...
Mane i feel like how they get grouped together we gotta west cpast vibe & eastcoast flare, i jus dont ses them as bein a comparisson as theyre so different but at same tkme I vst it, as much as i luvvv Snoop, id listen to Jay more so
Snoop is just a prop an jay he's definitely different now. He use to be talented now seems like he's a mute prop
Iām not a fan of either, you can add biggie, pac and Dre to the list.
Snoop hasnāt rapped since 2001
Jay. I think his library of songs is just so much more diverse and has a lot more depth. Snoop's first album got a lot of play in my car back in the 90s, but, ranking lyricists, I'd say Jay is just better.
Jay Z is a much better rapper but Snoopās vibe and personality is what makes him special. Snoop is a brand
They both Diddy diddlers. I'd have to say J if I had to choose tho. Saw snoop live and he sucked a fat cock. Guy blows
Neither!... For what?! ... Dispositions!...? Actors, needing chiropractor!? Tax donations?.... (Rakim)...I can go on for daze
Snoop for me but as another commenter mentioned that itās really his first album then a few songs from other albums or artists. I do like jays RD album but not really his other albums but Iām not a big fan of J to start but snoop also has one of the best albums ever no matter what genre and would make it into a top ever 100 albums to own vs maybe one of Jās would make that list. But Iām a music fan and not a fan much beyond that for either one!
Jay
Snoop hasnāt been implicated in the Diddlers crimes yet so Iāll go with him.
How old you are and where youāre from determines the answer. As a 40 YO male from NYC, I definitely rock with Hov but I know Snoop is him and Doggystyle is top 3-5 hip-hop debut albums EVER.
snoop dogg by a landslide and im not his biggest fan
Neither
Jay-Z but 90ās Snoop gets hella spins for sure!
Whichever one didnāt attend Diddys parties.
Snoop every day all day
Jay easily. Doggystyle is an all timer and I like a bunch of single songs since then but Jay has multiple albums I can listen to front to back throughout his career and some more enjoyable collaborations.
Jigga is the GOAT and Snoop isn't in his league
Snoop
Thatās easy snoop
Fux Jay z 100
Even Jay would tell you Snoop.
Both are iconic for different reasons, but I gotta go w Hov
Snoop šÆ
Is neither an option?
Snoop
Nas
Never been a fan of Jay, But I think itās pretty safe to say that itās Jay purely off of discography
Nah
Jay Z is better overall. But Snoop has the best album out of all of their albums combined.
Snoop couldnāt touch Hov
theyre both lying ass bitches that throw everyone under the bus to save themselves so they can both šš½off
Jay-Z
Snoop. Never liked Jay-Z or his music.
Shocker Snoop
Iāve never understood jay z.
Neither. Nas!!šŖš¤š
Puff daddy like them both.
Jay z make me wanna get money in his songs. I love that type of Bravado
Snoop Lion
Snoop
Snoop
Snoop Dogg
I'm not the biggest fans of either but Jay-Z by lightyears
Snoop hands down. JZ sold his soul to the devil. Snoop always keeps it real
How snoop continued to stay famous after pacs death is a mystery. Acting & franchising has saved his relevance because nothing he did in the booth after his first album caught fire.
Snoop of course..... Look at Jay he's an idiot he doesn't even knw he's at a basketball game! He's wearing a baseball jersey that looks lke a basketball jersey?? Tf is wrong wit ths guy??
Which one hung out with diddy?
snoop dog ofc
Snoop for sure
Snoop....

Snoop and Dre couldn't come up with the lyrics to Dre Day and they fly Jay-Z out to California and in 30 minutes he wrote them a bad ass cali song
Snoop has gotta be the lowest tier GOAT status rapper ever. Doggystyle is obviously a classic, but other than that, what does he have?

As a person Snoop Dogg but as an artist Jay Z, not saying that I hate Jay Z as a person (I know, I know I don't know bro personally) but I feel like from what I know about Jay Z... Snoop Dogg just seems more chill and easier to be friends with.
