Default The Largest Vocabulary in Hip Hop

I could easily just post the results of this study that was done but I thought it would be interesting to see who other people thought would be at the top or even in the top five.

Which rappers do you think are the most lyrical and use the most combination of unique words in their lyrics?

I have seen this and no surprise at all to see who tops the list. Quite a few surprises in there though.

Yeah, I forgot to mention that. If you already know it doesn't make sense to spoil it for the others until I do the reveal later on.

Few surprises in how low or how high on the scale they were?

Gift of Gab maybe? I think I've heard him mentioned as supposedly having the largest vocabulary in hip hop and I could definitely see that being the case.

Yeah, rappers I expected to be higher placed than others, but weren't.

EL-P not being included is quite annoying. Unless I just missed him.

yeah it's kind of funny that ICP was included but not El-P.

There were only 85 artists used in this and only counted up til 2012.
