You can not really say who is the best. The genre is too broad. NAS or Eminem lyrically, DMX for pure passion and grit etc the list can go on.
Best rapper of all time: 2 Pac Best Rapper Alive: NaS My Favorite rapper: Chamillionaire (This dude is a great lyricist, and the best from the south) Albums that prove they are the best 2 Pac - All Eyez On Me NaS - Illmatic Chamillionaire - Ultimate Victory
I still haven't heard you. I can't decide who my favorite rapper is, though. If the question was "group", then it'd be Company Flow. And Eminem is horribly overrated, if you ask me. He used to be good, until he started making songs for 12 year old girls.
I totally agree with you, but who knows, if tupac was still alive, he might had the upper hand..(or he would have become a junky)..
hmm for the american rapper i like eminem but this my own country here in philippines i lke francis M..
Eminem is overrated; so are Tupac's later recordings. Me Against The World is his only album I like. And, just wait a few months more for my album. I'll have the $30k to finish my production. I'm going to try and see if I can get some big names on a collab; the budget is the restrictive part. Think I'll contact some AOTP members or something....
a Ween avatar AND a fan of Kool Keith?!?! Good taste! I don't have a favourite emcee but some other favourite hip hop El-P Aceyalone Jeru the Damaja Juggaknots Black Moon
