Top 10 hip hop artists of all time - Submit your list

Keyser Soze · 08-10-2002, 07:59 PM

Gonzo and I were discussing how despite his skin tone, Eminem has possibly the best flow and lyrical creativity in the short history of hip hop. Which led me to the idea to have a top 10 hip hop artist thread. No need to PM me, just post your list here and i'll tabulate later. I'll give you until the end of the week. Post away.

1. The Notorious B.I.G.
2. Rakim
3. KRS-1
4. 2-Pac
5. Outkast (I'd say Big Boi is the obvious standout among the 2)
6. Nas
7. Beastie Boys
8. Eminem
9. Jay-Z
10. Raekwon / GZA / Method Man / Ghostface Killa

Fuck I had to redo my list. After all that, I forgot Em.

GonzoStyle · 08-10-2002, 09:51 PM

Keyser I will be expecting an apology, with mad ill lyrics in it begging for some boot knockin and pussy pounding.

Galt · 08-10-2002, 10:18 PM

They got a wacky wack record and a wacky wack crew.
"Yo, what about their beats?"
Yo, they're wacky wack too!

GonzoStyle · 08-10-2002, 10:57 PM

You should be beaten about the face and genital area for that quote.

Kid Afrika · 08-10-2002, 11:33 PM

"Damn!"

"Oh shit!"

"That is whack!"

This concludes the oratory by the "token negro" character for this thread. :-D

GonzoStyle · 08-10-2002, 11:35 PM

Galt · 08-11-2002, 06:21 AM

By the by, the correct ranking is...

1. Tupac
2. Ice Cube
3. Biggie
4. Eminem
5. Jay Z
6. Dre
7. Outkast
8. Snoop

#1 is Rakim, definitely. 2 - 10 I'm not too sure of yet, but 2-Pac, Em, KRS-1, Too Short, and Slick Rick are likely in there. I'll come up with a list. Lists rule!

2) Q-Tip
3) Outkast
