but the thing is, both those artists are intelligent, and can rap, even if they aren't great in your opinion, they're still superior to most current rap artists.

you didnt include kanye west.

so thats what i choose.

not all rappers need to be intelligent to be greatness.....everyone seems to think so but it's not true. not all rap needs to be social conscious rap.

That type of rap appeals to the same people who like Bad Religion and Against Me!. Whatever, like it, listen to it, just know that it's sh*t.

what about lil wayne
thats where my vote is
most of the rappers on that poll cud never dream of WRITING lyrics as good as the ones that he just FREESTYLES

haha what?

have you heard the lyrics of most of the rappers on that list?

Prez
Tech
Wu
Jay Z
Pun
Nas
Em

All write better than Wayne freestyles man. Wayne just has a cool voice, his rap is kinda wack

I'm pretty sure that any of the rappers on the poll could write better lyrics in their sleep.


look out for dat new album called "THA SHEETS IS TALKIN' BOI! VOLUME 1." any day now.

Muph out of Muph & Plutonic

But if I have to pick an American rapper... The fellas from Cypress Hill.
Zach De La Rocha out of RATM should be in there, I think he is more intelligent then most of those guys on the intelligence argument.

Documentary
 

Very recently for school I edited a documentary that was about an Underground rapper known as the Truth. One of the questions that the director asked him was who were some of the most influential rappers in his life and the two that he named was Nas and Jay-Z. Seems to be everyones favorite rappers, that must say alot about their music.
