Ok, I'd like to pose the question of who you think is (or was) the best artist in the hip hop world. I have listed some below:

AZ
B.I.G.
Gangstarr
Big L
'Mega
Jadakiss

 

No Nas or Jay? or anyone from Wu Tang? UGK?

I'm going to say Gucci Manne and Plies then.

 

Haystak, Eminem, Tupac, Wu Tang Clan, Do or Die, Outkast, and Nas

 

In before the move/lock!

 

2pac, biggie, jayz, dr.dre

 

2Pac

 

 

K-Fed

 

There are so many names not on that list.

Not a single mention of Mos Def...

Hey, Atmosphere is worth mentioning while we're at it. How about J5? Slick Rick? Humpty Hump? Hieroglyphics?

This is like asking which beer is the best. Or which car is the best. Or which book is the best

I will always love the Tupac/B.I.G. duo. Tupac had a definite message, an agenda if you will, that I think went beyond just his music. If you watch some of his interviews I think you'd see just how his ideas mirrored his rapping. BIG will always be my choice #1 for rhyme and flow. Very methodical, precise, always on the beat like a robot.

 

Everyone knows that JayZ is a swager jacker.....Dipeset bird game!

 

Free Max B!

 

 

 

Gangstarr $ Atmosphere

 

 

 

 

ooo...you had to break out weird al. I didn't he'd come out til later.

I see your weird al and raise you this:

 

Ok I agree, I did fail to mention Jay....

a huge mistake.

Credit and definite honorable mentions to:
Mos def
Nas
Big Noyd
2Pac

REally, I cant believe we had Dipset on there people
