Best Rapper Right NOw. (alive)

Started by gotta get rich16 pages

im a go with Mobb Deep, Canibus, Chino XL, Mos Def and Aesop Rock.

🙂 ^

Mobb Deep- Shook Ones classic song, classic rappers
Canibus- not a fan but he's good
Chino XL- one of my favs
Mos Def- sometimes known as "savior" of hip hop
Aesop Rock- I like his stuff. Daylight was nice.

Ice-T

I ain't been on the forums in awhile, but I'm feelin Jae Hood as a phat a** freestyler. Ya'll gotta hear some of his s*** man. And just to clear up the thing about Jae bein new that I'm hearin from alot of people (in my hood, not these forums), he's been rappin since he was like 16, 17.

he's alright but i like other freestylers better. Juice, Supernatural, etc etc.

If any of you Knew rap you could tell that JAY-Z is the best rapper alive

1. Nas
2. Canibus
3. maybe Eminem.

LOL OH MY GOD SOME ONE THAT THINKS THAT NAS IS BETTER THAN JAY-Z , DMX , CAMRON, AND EMINEM IF IT WAS NOT FOR JAY-Z BRINGING NAS BACK FROM THE DEAD NAS WOULD WOULD BE A " WHERE IS HE NOW" ON ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT OR SOME SHOW LIKE THAT. i CANT STAND WHEN SOME TALKS LIKE THEY KNOW ABOUT RAP WHEN THEY HAVE NO CLUE . OH YEA LISTEN TO SOME RAP BEFORE TO TALK ABOUT IT

😐 this was only for mainstream 😐

i can already see you dont know real hip hop.

Cam'Ron= rapper that makes up words
Jay-z= not impressed
Nas= better than Jay-z and i cant see how someone can disagree
DMX= stop barking dumbass
Eminem= lyrics get repetitive

eminem is ok in small doses

In my limited experience and lack of real hip-hop intrest, Zach de la Rocha is top o my list.

Zack is great. Everything he touches is pure genius.

IKnoRapBitch>Has it ever occured to you to even THINK about hip hop lyrics? Or even, for that matter, to LISTEN to your music rather than just sitting there nodding your head and leaning back and thinking you and Jay-Z are the coolest guys in the universe? I mean come on... "99 Problems" is honestly one of the worst songs I've ever heard. Just as bad if not worse than "In Da Club". Even the ****in' beat is lame. Not only is it absurdly simplistic, it just SOUNDS stupid. Go listen to some underground dude, not only are the lyrics better, but that kickass beat sounds even cooler on your woofers than that mainstream crap you've been listening to! 😱

Hey i dont think that every song that Jay-Z makes is a great song 99 problems I dont think is his best work eather. But it is better than 75% of the shit thats out there and its better Than 99% of the undergound. Go listen to some of Jay-Z older stuff like Reasonable Doubt or the Blue Print those are classic cds. And I also think that you need to go listen to the hole Black Album and Get rich or die tryin because it sounds like you are judding a hole cd on one song. You prob dont get what rappers are talking about, " you dont get the slang" but most average people dont get the slang eather. It s ok to be average

But i will listen to more underground tho.

...and average people don't understand what Trent Reznor is talking about in the song "Closer" 😐

And I have listened to enough of both the Black Album and Get Rich or Die Tryin' to know that I don't want to hear any more 😐

Oh, and btw--this is from the Cam'Ron song "Get 'Em Girl":

"Y'all faking the fizzle, I'm caking for shizzle
**** a Sizzler steak, my steak stay sizzled"

A made up word. Wasn't that clever of him, making up a word that sort of sounds like "Sizzler" and "sizzled" so that he could put it in the previous line? 😱

It's not Jay-Z's work at all, Ice T wrote it 😐

that's because they're two different mc's

jay-z doesnt represent hip-hop

rakim does if anything

there are no sub genre's in hip-hop aside from the other elements

Jay-Z dosent rep hip hop? 😆 Just shut off the computer now! Because u have 2 many drinks today 😆

jay z sucks half the time you can barely understand what he is saying.i am glad he isnt making anymore albums.
