lol... r u serious... top 100 maybe.  


*just as an example*


Bizzy Bone >>>>> Guru  
Kurupt >>>>>> Guru
DMX >>>> Guru
Guru >>>>>> Masta Killah
Guru >>>>>> Shyhiem
Guru >>>>>> Mack 10


and that's how it should be looked at.  But Pimp C is up there tho, ain't too many that can fuck with Sweet James Jones even after his death.  and that's tha bizness


*and truthfully imo, i'm being Generous towards G.  he never really made me wanna just go in depth and listen to his music  :sign_werd:.  he just didn't attract my attention/curiosity like that.  but now he's dead i'ma have 2 hit up amazon.com and go thru some samples lol

Taste is relative, so top ten lists labeled as anything other than "personal top ten" are useless.

No, but I'm sure people will start saying that now that he's dead.

I remember people putting Pimp C in that category when he passed lol

I'm a great fan of Gang Starr so yeah he has always been in my top 10, it has nothing to do with his death.

Gurus definitely got classics under his belt with Gangstarr, but as a stand alone emcee, nah bro, monotone lyrics and standard flow, didnt really go out of the box. He's dope, and definitely left a huge impression on hip hop with his Gangstarr work, but thats about it. R.I.P. to the man though

yeh bro u got me. this is straight from preemo himself:

MOSTLY, I WILL CHERISH EVERYTHING WE CREATED TOGETHER AS GANG STARR, FOREVER. I’M GONNA MISS HEARING HIS SIGNATURE MONOTONE VOICE WHEN HE WALKS IN THE ROOM, BUT THE SONGS WILL ALWAYS BRING IT BACK TO ME….

no disrespect to the man but lol he got it right on

Hes undisputedly a top 100 emcee of all time,his ranking in that list is a personal choice and therefore no answer is right or wrong.
