lol im glad, i hate that bastard
50 Cent was good before the fame and fortune....is underground stuff was great!
JayZ.....have his albums....wouldn't say is the one of the greatest...he "steals" a lot of lines from fellow rappers/MCs.
Big and Tupac......on the list but not the top. Only reason people classify them as "The Greatest" is because they both died. Neither got a chance to "mellow out."
Eminem is on the list. His early stuff was great, recently a little weaker. Now his lyrics seem to be more for "shock value" than anything. His early stuff was raw.
Early Wutang, Outkast, Nas, and Bone are also on the list. The original MCs from Rawkus....on the list.
Gotta add Twista (being from Chicago).....the early stuff. Making more "love" songs as of late.
Don't let me forget some of the OGs....Rakim, KRS-one, Guru, LL, Ice-T, and Big Daddy Kane
Right now the "best" are all underground. That is the most real and uncut you can get.....seems like money and fame have "tamed" most rappers/MCs.
