yeah Xzibit no doubt. Nobody can touch him as jake says nopt even the east coast and please somebody don't even say Jay-Z cause his shit is aight but not near as good as Xzibit's. When is X to tha Z dropping his next album? Any planz yet?

Crooked I or Rass Kass in my opinion, Xzibit is easily up there...

Ok Technicaly he's not from the west coast (he's Mid-West) but damn it he lived in cali (from what i've read) for a few years now.

So i say BIzzy Bone.

But yeh Mr X to the Z is probably the best in the west or Tash.

i was listening to restless lp and stuff and he rhyme alot like "never heard before/kick in the door"

and "whats up/what the fuck"  stuff like that

Rass kass and crooked i, definetly would have better KEYSTYLES, though xzibit flow is easily better than both

I ain't kiddin but you are....Jigga was one of the best but the shit he puts out 2day is just plain weak man......and people diss him cause he says he's the best but loadsa people know he ain't....jigga uses rhyming simplivity like "say/bay"......."hello/fellow" just plain rhyming and occasionally decides to use some big words to try and impress....Jigga was one of the best but is now far behind in the no.1 spot pecking order........Jigga claiming he is the one and shit is the only reason people diss him......not because they think he great jsut because he try to claim he the best.........also even Puffy would be able to rip Jigga a new arsehole if he wanted to diss him.

KURUPT. hes the shit. Kurupt gets deep with his words. you need to listen to his shit carefully to just begin to comprehend it. also i see alot of guys in here saying Ras Kass(i like Kass too) and i read this interview with Kass and they asked him who is the one mc that fucks him up everytime? he said Kurupt and then said "that motherfucker never shuts up". he aint my favorite mc but i think he is the best Westcoast mc......unless you want to count Shady. i think Eminem is the lyrical sugeon. i dont care what anybody says, he can spit out the most twisted rhymes and the speed of an m-16. his style just cant be touched. thats my view. peace.

It's all about Crooked
These bitches shout Crooked
I'll make you say the West Coast aint shit without Crooked
I own a vicious label, niggas'll get disabled
When I'm spittin' rhymes written on project kitchen tables
I load this 4-5 and let slugs dive at ya
Now that's for Crooked I, the scrap happy, mic snatcha

Crooked I "Step up"

WELL SAID! Now, to go back to the best in the WEST, it has to be XZIBIT, hands down. Ain't no West Coast rapper touchin' XZIBIT. Next up? Kurupt. Crooked I really comes out blazin' but Ras Kass (despite THE WHOLE WORLD TELLIN ME HOW RIDICULOUS HE IS) hasn't convinced me so far (I have to admit, I'm yet to really sit down and peep his shit).

Post by: Nosak on August 02, 2001, 05:06:43 PM
i would go with mc ren or kurupt BUT with the new album out i think snoop retake the place he's been stole b4,, great lyricist  , now i know some hater will talk bout ain't no fuckin way, with his izzy shizzle etc,, don't give a fuck, listen to eastside ridaz or gang bang fo real, crip hop,break a bitch til i die even in connected, the flow is aight , i know some people just listen to the flow then the lyrics but me , i listen the overall, just the beat , the flow, n the lyrics at the same time,, then u know that snoop is back in this motherfucka,, the top of the game, like this ya'll

LOL at Snoop being a great lyricist...When he was on top of his game Snoop was never a great lyricist...He had a great flow and delivery...As far as pure lyrics I'd have to say Rass Kass is the best on the West...Flow wise I'd have to say Xzibit although Kurupt and Tash also have great flows...

^^^ why do peeps always shit on the Restless album?

i thought the beats on this album shit on his previous efforts. i play the album the whole way through. the only song i don't really like is #12. obviously the lyrical skill has decreased cause he wanted to sell more records and it worked. almost 2Xplatinum...4.5/5 IMO it still gets bumped daily...i can't wait for Man Vs. Machine and Music Speaks Louder Than Words...both albums by X and Young Gotti sound dope!

In my opinion the best lyricist would be 2pac. He had the best lyrics when he was around. As for now...i'd say xzibit...hes a classy lyricist n an awsome rapper...
