if youre talking exclusively about hip hop then yeah
MC Ride at his most cryptic can go toe-to-toe with Aes

Used to really like him a lot
I went to one of his shows recently, it was horrible.
Instead of showing off his lyricism he tried showing off some "energy". You could barely hear what he qas saying and DJ abilities just took over when he realized the show was going to shit.
Idk what's gotten into him, I thought he was humble but I guess not

It depends what you mean by "complex lyricist". His vocabulary and a-dumptruck's-worth-of metaphors are probably the most complex I'm aware of, but I don't think that neccessarily means his lyrics offer the most complex themes or dialogue
Sure he's one of my favourites, but at the most complex without depending on a thesaurus so much, I'd put Eyedea up there.
that's not eminem

He is one of the most complex lyricists of all time.
That's not Lil Jon
