Is Big Sean one of today's top five MCs? It's a question that Joe Budden and DJ Akademiks discussed on the latest episode of Everyday Struggle.
"Sean is exactly where I think he should be," said Akademiks. "Top five currently. In the current crop of MCs he's top five. Name me five guys you got over Sean?" "I haven't thought of this list, but me and Nadeska will agree on Cole," answered Budden. "Number two, Drake, Kendrick ... So those are the three de factos."
Then the hosts debated about the other two rappers who belong on the list.
"Don't put Chance [The Rapper] in there yet," said Ak. "You ain't putting Chance over my man Big Sean."
Afterwards, Akademiks said it's possible that Meek Mill deserves to be on that list. Ultimately, Budden agrees with Big Sean as top 5, and throws a shot at Quavo out of nowhere.
