Talib Kweli beats the hell outta all them motherfuckers from Common to Louis Farrakhan. His weapon is not only conscoiusness but pure SKILL. Im sure he could stand up against KRS in a battle for some time.

I be one of those tall skinny cats with the four-nine
Three-eleven that rips through Power-U's and breaks spines
I culture power-tuggin' boys who be drunk, buggin'
Lovin' loud noise from toys, club thuggin'
Sweet chocolate deluxe, rugged, sexy buttercup
That don't give a fuck about the cop in the club
RZA in DO U

2pac embodied all the characteristics of a rapper from thug to conscious, so in a way your right.

It's either Common and Talib Kweli. I guess I'll go with T.K.

I ain't little but vicious, guns no misses You feel me, kisses or wishes, fore I break you up like dishes Fuck your bosses, my forces, endorses To kill all your sources y'all niggas best be cautious No losses, my fortress, is Jaguars and Porsche's Ride the OTB to check my money on the horses My horrors is flawless, my block one of the broadest Off the main attraction for them whitey ass tourists That I tosses, it scorches, with out no remorses Leave they bloody body to be found in Mount Morris
