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.

hey i havent see you around before... nice.. avatar!

: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.

I can see what you're saying about Ras, but from some of the stuff he's done lately i think he's improved his flow and he does now switch styles to fit different beats now as well. I'm not saying he's now got a great flow or delivery but it has been improving. And his voice ain't as bad as Guru's.

sorry man i gotta disagree i think Ras is rightly hailed as one of the best. He switches up his flow all the time, and he delivers amazingly. The only 2 rappers i like as much as Ras are Paris & Rakim
