you guys are confusing.. gangster rap and pop rap..

Ja Rule.. is pop rap, songs like I'm Real is consider pop rap... You can't compare two different types of music, thats like me saying 50cent is better then a country singer.. two different types of music..

Name a gangster rapper that is better then 50cent?

I don't like Gangster rap, but...

Past or present?

Mach 10, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, NWA, Easy E, etc.

Gangsta rap as a whole is a played out genre

But MOP, Cube, Big Pun etc are all lightyears ahead of 50

Dude you should listen to Necro and Ill Bill if you want hardcore Gangster rhymes. Fifty isn't gangster or an MC. He's a product just like a big mac. He's only out their to sell records.

Top Five of Time for me is

Rakim
Nas
KRS One
Guru
Kool Keith
