1. LL Cool J (The GOAT....Def Jam's FRANCHISE...3 generations of fans)
2. Big Daddy Kane (any style, anytime...Mr. C called BIGGIE the SECOND
COMING of KANE)
3. Rakim (changed rap from nursery rhymes to the infinite styles we have
today)
4. Kool G. Rap (Simply awesome....FEARED on the MIC....greatest verse in
rap HISTORY was his verse on the SYMPHONY)
5. KRS-1 (beats anyone.....ANYONE in a rap battle, period.)
6. Tupac (even BEFORE Death Row, this dude had the passion, knowledge
and HEART to get out there and do his thing.)
7. Biggie (he was EVERY rapper rolled into one. NOBODY spit it live like he did)
8. Snoop Dogg (SLEPT on MC...."Pimp Slapped" - greatest diss track
EVER - NO ONE has the courage to diss Suge Knight)
9. Eminem (very few RESPECTS the rap game like he does. His natural ability
is amazing)
10. Lil' Wayne (THIS guy has talent and is the hardest worker EVER in rap -
and being in this current rap era makes it that much more
evident)

Nas and Yukmouth aren't even in my top ten. Lol.

thread title says rate YOUR top 10..in other words who is MY personal top 10

first off, yukmouth is my all time favourite rapper...i have all his albums/dvds...i even have a signed picture from him cause im a fan of his music..a REAL fan and his early albums when he first went solo are classics, godzilla, thugged out and new testament

secondly, im well aware he might not be the most lyrically gifted or even make it to the top 50 rappers of all time but seriously i made the list for who i listen to and not to impress my rap knowledge

otherwise i would have said..

tupac
biggie
rakim
big l
eazy e
eminem
jay z
big pun
KRS one

get it?

I love Grand Puba, man.

Listening to 2000 right now. I remember when that came out I could not put it down.

I also love that Sean Price made your list. I love anything to do witht he Bootcamp Click.

I feel kind of strange looking back at my list and seeing Buckshot Shorty isn't in my list..
