Can anyone argue against Chuck D being...
Twentytwofifty:
My top five MCs ever:
1. Rakim
2. KRS-One
3. Nas
4. Big Daddy Kane
5. Notorious B.I.G.
IMO, all of them have better voices and a better flow. Biggie and Nas are better storytellers. Rakim & Kane are better lyricists. The top three have better albums. Chuck D does have the influence and impact but so does Rakim, KRS-One and Kane, and Nas and Biggie are just better all-around MCs than him.
But then againg I never liked P.E., or Chuck D for the most part.

Yeah i didn't mean that wordplay is a gimmick. I meant that Chuck D doesnt have any need to be complex or anything its straight up reality rap.

Chuck is in my top 5 for sure.
It ain't all about skills or techniques: hip hop ain't about subtracting and adding up. This shit is about feeling and I been feeling Chuckie D since the days of Yo! Bum Rush the Show.
Besides Paris, I don't think anyone can match Chuck's wisdom and maturity. Most of his rhymes or ideas are so on point it makes me wonder if he'll ever be the new leader the black community in the United Snakes of America needs.
