Best Rapper (lyric, rock, albums, fan, Eminem)

Raine · 05-25-2006, 03:30 PM

I'm getting a little tired of the other threads about the worst rapper.
So I'm making a new thread.
Like the title implies, who do you think is the best rapper.
(anybody that says 50 cent should lay of the drugs or start doing some)

My favorite rappers are Dead Prez, Cypress Hill, Nas, Ghostface Killer, Mos Def, Eminem, Mobb Deep, Big Pun, DMX (before he became blah), Jada Kiss, and the Wu Tang Clan and all the solo albums except those made by Red Man and Method Man who are jokes without the rest of the clan.
I am also a big fan of Ms. Jade and Missy Elliot's earlier work. that stuff rocks. Ms. Jackie O is kinda good but some of her songs just make me wanna throw up.

PS: It feels like I screwed up the poll cause I'm definitely forgetting somebody.
Peace

Why yes. You forgot Pac and Biggie, silly.

Pac and Nas are tied for me. They are lyrically different and similar in many aspects. I think Pac had a very good delivery, not to mention SO MANY classic songs. Nas is like a poet, that has so much versatility and savvy.

I ended up voted for Wu Tang though, only b/c they are my favorite hip hop group of all time. Raekwon is a professional...and listening to Gza and Ghostface...sometimes I just have no idea what they are talking about...those crazy shaolin ninjas....

Tech. Hands down.

Special shout outs go to Mystic, Esinchill, and the dopest female MC ever... Jean Grae.

maybe people need to stop making these polls cause no ones ever gonna get it right even if i made one it wouldnt be right. no one can agree on peoples list of best or worst. some agree but most dont. Ms Jackie O shouldnt be on there shes far from being the best. Should make polls of whos the best underground and the best mainstream rapper. One rapper i never hear get props is AZ. AZ is very underrated. Ive listened to all those people on the list but some people dont know a few of those names.

Nas

Dead Prez
Wu Tang
