This collab (Rakim x Kurupt x Masta Killa) is something very special. There ARE levels.

Rakim might have the most legitimate claim for greatest rapper alive. Basically birthed the style the whole culture ran with and never, ever lost a step over the years. There has been no drop in quality in four decades. If that aint GOAT material, or at least greatest alive, I dont know what is.
