Its a nice list,but personally I'd add a few more people & take out another few from the list.By the way,since when is Nas considered a lyricist???& what about 2Pac & Caz.I give those last 2 props for writing their own shit but they're in no way lyrical.

What on earth are you talking about?  Are you asking if Nas writes his own lyrics?

Nas cant be considered a lyricist if he doesnt write his own lyrics.Plain & simple.
