Depends on what you define as underrated as Ras Kass is considered to be one of the top 5 MC's of all time by alot of peeps in the rap music industry and knowledgable fans, yet by the majority of rap fans he is a nobody. So i'mma have to disagree and say Ras Kass, because Treach was quite popular back in the day.

I dunno who the most underrated is, but Treach is a monster, he's been tight on everything I've ever heard of him, Naughty By Nature was tight stuff, Treach can flow.

Don't know about ever but...

Treach is underrated
Ras Kass is overrated
Gza/Genius, Inspectah Deck are rated reasonably
Slug you can't really say
And Guru I can't really tell, maybe a little overrated

Now an underrated MC is someone like Posdnuos.

gift of gab is underrated too but my point is that no one is an as well rounded mc as treach that never gets mentioned in a top mc discussion or list.
as for guru i've always thought he was overrated..and yes i own all of the gangstarr albums and even his jazzmatazz projects..

:o :o you're joking right?

He might be reasonably rated as a complex lyricist but he's overrated as an MC.  His voice, flow, delivery are all average and he doesn't really switch up rhymes patterns too much and play around with that like an Eminem or Rakim does.  Plus he's only released 2 albums, one is dope, one is okay, no classics and it looks like he'll never make one.
