best bay area rapper of all time?

[Hack Wilson - real]

who's the best of the Yay area?

[BIGWORM]

THE BEST RAPPER EVER IS SPICE-1 not just bay area...

[WestWestYA]

40 water

[Remedy360]

Spice

[doggfather]

40 water

[Dogg Ly Dogg]

E-40 & Too Short for their longevity

[S.J]

I'd probably say Mac Dre

[bouli77]

lol @ Assassin being in the list.

"best" is a pretty vague term, what do you mean by best ? The most skilful ? The best lyricist ? The most well rounded ? The best discography ? The most consistent ? The one who had the biggest impact in the rap game ?


I think 2pac is the most well-rounded artist. If we are to leave 2pac of the top, I'd say E-40 based on his skills and lyricism. Impact wise I'd say both E-40 and Too $hort (of course if we don't count 2pac)

followed by 90's era richie rich.

[HighEyeCue]

went with 40 over Too Short even though Short had like 6 or so consecutive plat albums going back to the 80's I think...obvious choice would have been Pac

the Bay Area is criminally slept on though

[escowino]

E-40 in my opinion.

[Blunt Tyme Da Gawd]

im offended Lil B, the Based God isnt on this bullshit list. He'll always be hands down the greatest bay area rapper of all time. dont bullshit yourself saying hes not cuz hes probably fucking yo bitch while you typing shit up.

2pac was not a bay area rapper. He  a LA rapper. His las song was to live & die in LA. not to live & die in the bay. PAc reppeed LA

[papa-smurf]

e 40 & too short is the bets bay area rappers. They have the most longevity & sold the most records & always make relevant music. They never fell off.
