And as for using Oscars, awards, popularity etc. as evidence then I think this lyric is quite fitting

"If you go platinum it's got nothin' to do with luck / it just means that a million people are stupid as ****"
Immortal Technique - Industrial Revolution

Just lol at the others too, get a grip

Don't talk here if you don't understand his music. Aesop Rock is probably one of the best rappers in hip hop.

Artists: Nas, 2Pac, Notorious B.I.G., Big L, Big Pun, and much more.

Groups: WU-TANG CLAN!, N.W.A, Eric B & Rakim, Tha Dogg Pound, G-Unit, and more.

I would never consider guys like Eminem, Jay-Z, Dr. Dre because they are all no good sellouts. Maybe if i answered this question in 2003 things would have been different.

Eminem, Jay-Z and Dr. Dre are no good sellouts, but you listed G-Unit. Lol.

Hi-tek is good but not THAT good that he can make up for Ninja's delivery.

Greatest hip hop group ever: Wu Tang. No contest.

How can you compete with, not two or three, but nine of the some of the greatest names in hip hop, who've made some of the most favored albums in the genre, both together and independently? Not to mention they're STILL out touring for fans, RZA is making a freaking kung fu movie with Russell Crowe, and they have their own video game. WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT.

I don't think I've ever met anyone who didn't like Wu Tang.
