yea,
i wanted to add Yukmouth, but dude comes off as more thuggish to me. hes got great punchlines, but he didnt make the cut. (but then again, i did add Jayo Felony)

not too familair wit Jacka and Mob Figaz like that tho
- its my list, not meant to be oppositionaly definitive (even tho i think its a pretty good list), so dont be surprised if u cant find everyone on there.
but some dudes were left off, which i regret now. like --> Causal, Del, Saafir, Planet Asia, Phil Tha Agony, Sick Jacken, Sly Boogy and maybe San Quinn

Ice Cube? hes an og, but not lyrical enuff on the hiphop-tip to me

oh, and the thing wit RBX - if u listen to his solo-shit, then he really shines wit the rhymes, specially these days (hes on some other shit when hes rappin wit Dogg Pound)

i dont take overall rappin style and/or song-writing into consideration --> only rhymes, punchlines and lyrics, but subject-matter always has to be on some mc-shit, (wit exceptions like Kurupt, the game, crooked and jayo etc)

no Cube=no dice
in his prime possibly the best lyricist ever on the Coast.
No Saafir, Casual, Del? Yuk is a top knotch spitter as well
But RBX? hell Im  a fan but he is one of the biggest recyclers of phrases in the game.

 :)
all due respect to Mr. Cube, but
hes a political slash gangsta rapper,
Snoop is a better lyricist than him.
link me one song wit some really nice rhymes, when hes on some off-the-wall mc type of shit..

please, ill wait ("no vaseline" doesnt count)
The D.O.C. is the only guy from N.W.A. who knew how to really rap n write rhymes IMO



yes, The Game is still a lyricist to me



still?!?!
he never was.

 ???
of course he is,
why is he not a lyricist to u?
