The best rapper of alltime?

[rwill25]

My Favorite All-time(short list):

1. Nas
2. Common
3. Outkast
4. Biggie(wish he had more material)
5. Tupac

Current rappers:

1. Common
2. T.I.
3. Jay-Z
4. Kanye West
5. T-Pain(Not really a rapper, but I like his stuff, very creative.)

 

[Afficial_Nastee]

Big Punisher is the best rapper I know....

Followed by:
Slim Shady (his Slim Shady period not that bullshit encore crap that he did in 2004)
Kool G Rap
Sticky Fingaz

Thats like asking what your best broken bone of all time is. They are all horrible.

 

[kuruption]

Tupac and nobody is even close. Pac is still selling CD's even though he has been dead for about 12 years.

That must be why hip-hop is so unsuccessful.

O, WAIT....

Bazooka Chewing Gum

[Blackjack69]

In my opinion the best rapper of alltime is 2pac.

 

[METAL HEAD]

[Spleen]

I see your logic.

 

[Marlo Manson]

1) RAKIM
2) TUPAC
3) Many rappers should get top 20 of all-time consideration, but IMO the 2 listed are by far the GREATEST EVER!!!!! :2 cents::hatsoff:

Tupac is one of the most overrated,imo,and so is Biggie.Don't get me wrong,they were both really good,but there are waaaaay better lyricist out there.

Buckshot from Black Moon had mad skills and was probably a better rapper than both of them.Drez from Black Sheep was really good back in the day also.
Shit,Busta Rhymes,Skoob and Books from Das EFX,Red Man,and I could pretty much go all day naming rappers better than Tupac and Biggie.

Like I said before,album sale don't make you a great rapper.Seem to me like most of the people here only started listening to rap when MTV started playing more rap music besides just on Yo! MTV Raps.

Method Man is perhaps the only MC that could freestyle and entire album(and maybe Emenim),that's why he's the best in my book.

Raekwon is better, so is Ghost, and maybe even RZA. Come on man, they ALL have classic albums, and Meth doesn't

Dude,with all due respect,you're out of your fucking mind if you think that any of them are better than Meth.Why do you think that he was the only one on Wu's first album to get his own song to showcase? Sorry,but your credibility just went out the window if you even think the The RZA is anywhere near the same level as Meth.

Cuban Linx is the shit,but Tical isn't classic?:wtf:

This thread is called "the best rapper of all time" not the best rap album.
Here's some of Method Man's skills.

But criteria, at least in my mind, should be that a rapper at least put forth a classic effort somewhere in their reportoire. Tical was shoddy. Although I loved bring the pain.

Gosh...I don't like rap most of the time but after hearing Get Up by 50 Cent and Eminem's new song...can't remember what it's called...I'd say 50 and Em.

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree,because Tical is a tight album.

I'd have to listen to it again. It's been years. I just thought the beats didn't stack up to other albums like OBFCL and Supreme and Birth of a Prince

You are still missing the point.Best RAPPER,not best beats or best album.
This means who has the best rhyming skills,and that would be Method Man,end of discussion.
