Damian Marley has quietly been the best rap artist over last 5 years!

[TraceOneInfinite]

Seriously, over the last 5 years name me any rapper that has been iller than Damian Marley?

Welcome To Jamrock in 2005 and now Distant Relatives in 2010 have solidified him as the best rapper out right now!  It's time dude started getting his props!  I would like to say that people consider him a reggae artist and that that is why he is not regarded as a top rap artist, but unfortunately that is not true.  Listen to a track like "The Master Has Come Back" and his skills as a rap artist are undeniable...

No, I'd argue it's because people are asleep and they can't recognize good shit when they hear it!  That is the reason he's not gettin his props!

These bangers stand up to anything that's came in hip-hop over the last 5 years...

2005 Solo Album BANGERS...

"Welcome To Jamrock" 10 out of 10
"The Master Has Come Back" 10 out of 10
"All Night"  9.5 out of 10"
"Road To Zion" feat. Nas 9.5 out of 10
"Hey Girl" 9 out of 10
"In Too Deep" 9.5 out of 10

2010 Distant Relatives Album BANGERS...

"Strong Will Continue"  10 out of 10
"Promise Land"  10 out of 10
"Nah Mean" 9.5 out of 10
"Tribes At War" 9 out of 10
"Friends" 9 out of 10
"In His Own Words" 9 out of 10

...and even aside from the bangers his albums contain no filler!

This isn't Nas gets punched in the face by a Jamaican, wtf?

I'm sure I read that his brother Stephen Marley writes most of his lyrics for him, their both good artists though

I seriously doubt that

[wardy]

I don't know how much of material he has wrote for him but the writing credits on his albums have a lot to do with his brother. I don't think it makes any difference though as Damian Marley and his brother Stephen are very underated imho.

[.:Hercy Buggz:.]

rap artist?! lol wow

[TraceOneInfinite]

rap artist?! lol wow

Come on now, his specialty is a style called "toasting" which is basically the style of Reggae that gave birth to rap!  Listen to his last two albums and you could easily classify them as rap as much as reggae.

yeh you could easily classify them as rap if you are some retarded teen with no understanding of rap music.

just because a dude does something with his voice that is similar to rap does not make it rap, ESPECIALLY when the music is not hip-hop at all. jeez this is the most retarded thread in a while. like ok lets say we agree he is a rap artist, hes still not in the top 100 rap artists of the last 5 years. lol, just lol.
