Jay-Z has to be the most overrated rapper in history.

hell yeah

and no way is Nas number 5. thats fuckin ridiculous. Nas is either 1 or 2, its a toss up between him & Cube

[evan the dude]

Im a big ghost fan be he isnt top 10, i dont even know if hes top 20.  Snoop isnt even close to top 30.  D.O.C. didnt have much impact on the game and has one true album, even tho its a classic he aint top 10

DOC didn't have much impact on the game?!? You're kidding right? DOC was pretty much the father of Dre and Snoop. If that's not having much impact then i dunno what you're smokin.

One album.... and dre was the one that got DOC in the game so how is doc his father.

[Fressh_Deini]

The D.O.C. ain't the father of Dr. Dre haha. But it were Dr. Dre, The D.O.C. and Suge Knight who brought up Deathrow Records. Without The D.O.C., Dr. Dre wouldn't have done business with Suge Knight from what I have heard.
