prediction. some dude will come in here and post pics from rappers fromn the 80s and early 90s and ****ting on how current rappers suck.
I have to speak out in this thread because IMF putting the wackest rapper of all time (with the possible exception of Ja-Rule) Cam'ron on his top 5 is a laugh riot times 100000. Double-rhyming nonsense does not make you a good rapper. Neither does wearing pink shirts. Worst. Rapper. Ever. "I got a list, heres the order of the list thats its in... It goes Reggie, Jay-z, Tupac and Biggie, Andre from Outkast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas and then me" - Marshall Mathers 1.) Lesane Parish Crooks aka Tupac Amaru Shakur 2.) Nasir "Nas" Jones. ( Illmatic > * ) 3.) Christopher Wallace / Shawn Carter (Basically the sound of NYC) 4.) Eminem 5.) Del the Funkee Homosapien (for you mother****ers who didn't know... Hieroglyphics and formerly Gorillaz)
No particular order: Nas, Pac, Hova, Talib, BIG, Em, Dre, Andre3000 And if somebody tries to put some fool like 50 Cent in this list, oh my damn, I will get irritated.
No **** dude. that was way out of left field. Cam'ron? PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT.
I like Cam and Juelz, but they are nowhere near my top 5. My top 5 changes on how I feel at the time but here it is 1.2pac 2.Biggie 3.Jay-z 4.Nas 5.Jada(even though his albums let me down)
Tupac is alone in a whole different stratosphere.. so basically: 1) TUPAC . . . . . 2)Biggie 3)Snoop Dogg 4)Ice Cube (or NWA as a whole) 5)3-way tie between GZA*, Mos Def, and DMX *insanely underrated, please google "on the eve of war" and listen to his verse, possibly one of the best of all time.. I like Nas, but he's way too overrated.. I'm a big eminem fan, but you pretty much don't know anything about "rap" if you put him in your top 5.. don't get me wrong, he's awesome, but a guy who raps about Michael Jackson and little kids isn't in the same class as the ones mentioned above .. Vinnie Paz (AKA-Ikon the Hologram) has the best rapping voice of all.. I also freaking love DMX, but I couldn't put him on top of any of the ones I mentioned.. Dre is the greatest beat-producer of all time, and the Chronic is the best album of all time..
