Canibus

i dont know...maybe pac or biggie...or............. 8)
-
Biggy and Pac are overrated
-
Biggy and Pac are overrated
thats true but so is Canibus & 80% of the rappers who are even semi-popular
-
Pac and Ra are the only 2 i can accept someone saying ....and maybe big, pending on who is saying it
-
LL Cool J
-
haha c'mon kids, hands down The God MC, Rakim.
-
LL Cool J
as far as live performances are concerned, i agree. nevertheless, rakim is the best
-
Canibus
-
sage francis...yeah, i said it.
OMG, that's cute.
*hopes he's joking*
-
while i wouldnt say hes the greatest i will agree with mousehowl to a point...sage has a hell of a lot of talent...anyone ever hear the freestyle he did over the super mario bro's beat? that was dope...as far as the greatest rapper in my opinion...my top 5 are:
1.Nas
2.Guru
3.2pac
4.Biggie
5.Jay-Z
-
LL Cool J

i don't agree with those live performances actually. layzie bone only for example is much better already :P but i'm not saying he's the best, i don't think there is a rapper that has had more success in his carreer than ll cool j.

why? :P
he perfected multis which basically every mc uses nowadays but none of them are fucking with g rap..pun was the only one close and well hes dead...
he came up with the thug/mafioso style and it influenced many rappers like mobb deep.
i believe he was the only mc from the 80's to make it onto the billboard top 10. its even more suprising since he didn't have to switch up his style.
he was one of the first rappers to have production from another coast.
easily top 3 in lyricism(just peep how advanced poison was for its time) and storytelling(on the run, thugs love story)
he has outshined other rappers who are proclaimed the greatest by others(nas, canibus, freddie foxxx etc) fuck it just listen to the symphony where he goes through the rest juice crew.
"shitting on niggas like kool g rap did all the cats in the first symphony"
hes versatile with tracks like erase racism, talk like sex, ill street blues, road to the riches etc
good enough? 8)

I honestly dont care whut peeps got to say...
but um Pac is my favorite rapper of all time...
The topics he covered,the way he put his lines together and delivered them...
R.I.P. :'(
-
I know pac has been overhyped and eveyone seem to jump on his dick after he passed but there is no doubt in my mind that he was the best..........Now I cannot believe yall not givin Big Snoop Dogg his due. He helped start all this shit without him muh fuckers would still be runnin around in hammer pants.
Alot of the mcs listed i can agree with......but i know alot of you young bucks wanna be "original" and go against the grain and wanna put up some underground shit and act like anything mainstream is wack...Canibus,Chino XL?
Give me a break with all that dog...I can name at least five off the top of my head that can spit better than them cats. But it all comes down to a matter of opinion so im not hatin or no bullshit like that i just dont agree.
