atm:

Deicide

i'm in anti religious mode right now...

fav emcees:
1. Rakim - best rapper of all time, created the concept of flow, everyone uses his lines in their rhymes, the rapper everyone is compared to, aka. The GOD MC
2. Mos Def - most depth
3. Tupac - many meaningful songs, creative contrast between album names and tracklist
4. Big Daddy Kane - gave credibility to freestyling, crazy lyricist
5. KRS-ONE - lyricist, deadliest battle rapper and concious emcee
6. Jadakiss - smoothest flow
7. Nas - third best lyricist of all time, created off beat flow that everyone uses now
8. Big L - died too young, crazy rhymes tho
9. Canibus - one of the best lyricists of all time, biggest vocabulary
10. MC Juice - underground legend

Honourable Mentions:
- MC Shan (juice crew)
- Melle Mel (a legend)
- Grandmaster Caz (a legend)
- Kool G Rap (lyrical fitness)
- Slick Rick (no better storyteller)
- Pharoah Monch (lyricism)
- Ghostface Killah (crazy rhymes)
- Ras Kass (Pure lyricism)
- Method Man (one of the best flows)
- Lauryn Hill (emcee with no flaws...except she's bipolar)
- LL Cool J (very few have matched his longevity...only a handful come to mind)
- MC Lyte (one of the best female rapper ever)
- Scarface (the godfather)
- Ice Cube (took on NWA by himself and dropped many classics)
- Talib Kweli (Black Star is legendary but Kweli's flow is not the best)

New Blood, probably forgot someone in here but...:
- Lupe Fiasco
- Joell Ortiz
- Saigon
- Papoose
- Cassidy
- Fabolous
- Termanology

Categories:
