Top 10 Favourite Rappers of all time?
1 - Big Pun
2 - Ice Cube 3 - Wu Tang (excpet Cappadonna obv) 4 - Biggie Smalls 5 - KRS One 6 - Nas 7 - Gangstarr 8 - Ras Kass 9 - Rakim 10 - Sage Francis |
1- Biggie
2- Tupac 3- Wu Tang 4- Slick Rick (no slick on your list !?!) 5- Ice Cube 6- Brand Nubian (Sadatx) 7- Run D.M.C. 8- L.L. Cool J 9- Eric B. and Rakim 10- Public Enemy Also: Jungle Brothers and De La Soul and Beastie Boys And I'm deffinitely not set in stone on the order although Biggie and Tupac would always be at the top (I know it's the popular thinking that calls Biggie and Tupac the best rappers of all time, but I tend to agree with that notion). |
10. Ice T
9. Chuck D 8. Beastie Boys 7. Snoop Dogg 6. Bizzy Bone 5. N.E.R.D. 4. Dr. Dre 3. Mack 10 2. Ice Cube 1. WC |
10-B Real
9-LL Cool J 8-Ice Cube 7-Q-Tip 6-Dr Dre 5-Tupac 4-Busta Rhymes 3-Ludacris 2-Eminem 1-Chuck D |
1) Eminem
2) Ludacris 3) DMX 4) Nelly 5) Jay-Z 5) Nas 7) Dr. Dre 8) Talib Kweli 9) 50 Cent 10) Outkast Honorable Mention: Fat Joe Having both Jay-Z and Nas at #5 was no mistake, by the way. Plus I like Tupac and Biggie, don't get me wrong, but they're already labeled as the greatest ever and they're going to be on most everyone else's list. |
In no particular Order..
Ludacris Lil Jon Tupac Notorious BIG Paul Wall Chamillionaire Lil Flip Ying Yang Twins Pastor Troy Dirty Methodman/Redman Snoop Dog Youngbloodz TI |
1 Run DMC
2 Beasties 3 Tribe Called Quest 4 KRS-1 5 Outkast 6 Dr. Dre 7 Public Enemy 8 LL Cool J 9 Geto Boys 10 Ja Rule |
I'll save some space, since everybody else I would have named has already been mentioned, save one- My All-Time Favorite,
Big Daddy Kane! |

In general, I tend to agree with lions20, however, there are some exceptions. I don't know if I can make a credible top ten out of it, but I'll give it a shot.
1 - Neal Peart (Raps in "Roll the Bones") 2 - Weird Al Yankovic - (It's All About the Pentiums) 3 - Tom Waits - (I think "Fillipina Box Spring Hog" counts as rap) 4 - Will Smith (Does more to end racism just by being than Al Sharptoon and Jessie Jackson combined - clever rapper too) 5 - Eminem - ("Lose Yourself" actually gave him some credibility) 6 - Jam Master Jay - (It would be unkind, untrue, and moderately amusing to say, "because he's dead," so I'll say that it is because he demonstrated the way a rapper could live without being a dirtbag.) 7 - Mix-a-Lot (Funny) 8 - Ice-T (has a hardcore band. Handled the whole Cop Killer incident well) 9 - Digital Underground (Funny) 10 - Tupac (Dead. Still putting out albums. Years later.) Edit: I was thinking about this after I posted, and there are a couple more rappers to who I believe props must be issured. 3½ - Kid Rock 6½ - The Beastie Boys (License to Ill is the album that made Rap music to White America) 9¼ - Ton Loc (Made the same song a hit twice, changing almost nothing but the name.) 9½ - Colin Quinn (Goin' Back to Brooklyn. 'Scuze me. I don't tink so.) 9¾ - LL Cool J (Good name, and, as an actor, a poor man's Ving Rhames. Also, allowed Colin Quinn his one moment of true humor.) There's more, including a number of rappers I think the world would be better of (or is better off) without, but this is a thread for those who like rap. Take the above as my admiration of the form and continue with your bad selves. Edit again: Couple more I missed in no particular order: Falco - German Rap. Gotta love it. The Bloodhound Gang. |
This is my current top ten the people on this list move up and down according to how I'm feeling on any given day.
[list=1][*]Tupac Shakur[*]Outkast[*]Notorious B.I.G.[*]A Tribe Called Quest[*]The Roots[*]Ludacris[*]L.L. Cool J[*]Public Enemy[*]Jay-Z[*]Busta Rhymes[/list=1] Honorable mention goes to the following: Mos Def, The Jurassic-5, Naughty By Nature, Snoop Dogg, Wyclef Jean, Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz, and Run DMC. Most of the people in my honorable mention list (excluding Snoop) I haven't heard enough of their music to figure out where I would place them in my favorites of all time list. |
1. bone thugs
2. 2 pac 3. eminem 4. outkast 5. dre 6. biggie 7. snoop dogg 8. 50 cent 9. nas 10.bustah rhymes |
[list=1][*]Tupac[*]Snoop Dogg[*]B.I.G.[*]Eminem[*]Dr. Dre[*]Outkast[*]Jadakiss[*]Ludacris[*]Shyne (fuck Puff for making him take the fall)[*]Jay-Z[/list=1]
Jay-Z is so low because I after The Dynasty his records just seem, different. And not in a good way. Honorable mentions to Black Eyed Peas and Nate Dogg, I consider both more R & B though excluding them from competition. |
Hell yeah, jimmy4, Shyne was one of my favorite young guns too. Anybody know when he's due to get out?

Can't pick a favorite, so in no particular order...
The Beatnuts Big Daddy Kane Digital Underground (spawned Tupac & Saafir) Das EFX Cypress Hill Volume 10 (please make another album) The Roots Geto Boys Kool Keith Outkast |
Can't believe no one has mentioned anyone from DE LA SOUL?!?!?!
Anyways, here is my bastardized list: (This represents consistency thru a career, not necessarily one good album i.e. Wu-tang) Black Thought from The Roots The Pharcyde crew De La Soul crew Tribe Outkast Chuck D from PE Nas B.I.G |
no particular order - acts instead of specific people
Aesop Rock Talib Kweli Mos Def Roots Outkast Illogic anti-pop consortium slick rick Tribe Called Quest the bubble - a fight between common Blueprint Sage Francis |
The sooner Shyne gets out the sooner he can kill Puffy :)
|
heh...looking this thread over, I'm the only Streets fan here :p
|
I like The Streets, but I would classify it more as Garage than rap, along with Dizzee Rascal. The thing the Streets have is he really does speak for a whole generation - "Weak Become Heroes" feels like it really could have been written about my life

Nas destroyed Jigga's legacy in hip hop IMO.
It was silly of him, cos Nas was whack, finished, until Jigga called him out and made him mad - so Nas came back and proved he could record a track that Jigga couldnt touch. The difference between them? Think "I know I can" vs "Hard Knock Life"; thik "New York State of Mind" vs riiping off some Pac track or being all over MTV cos you is fucking one of Destiny's Child. Nas destroyed Jay Z and left him with nothing but MTV and billboard |
