[jod0565]

Rakim, Doug E. Fresh and of course Roger, who pioneered the "electronic" voice so many of today's artists think is so "them."

 

[Lonilover]

you forget ' a tribe called quest ' ' public enemy ' ' run dmc' and more..

 

[316sherm]

2pac no question!

 

[mrtrebus]

Don't really see how some of these rappers on the list can be called old school! :dunno:

 

[Toyfriend]

Ghostface is the best there is, was or ever will be. Still to this day he is the TRUE definition of an emcee.

[dooney]

If we talking about rappers from the 80's then I like Run DMC,NWA,ll cool J,Kool Moe Dee,Whodini, Erik B & Rakim, Doug E Fresh

 

[beauregard]

Rakim slaughters all this list save for KRS-1. Tupac is third.

Considering pretty much all on this list give props to Rakim as their influence, I think that speaks for his rapping.

 

[eNtR0Py]

Technically this list isn't really old school, but all great MCs anyway. I'm rolling with Biggie on this one; superficial compared to the rest yes, but raw lyrical talent unmatched in his era.
