Complex Magazine "The 25 Best Rap Verses of the Last 5 Years

Although I don't agree with it being #1, if Nicki Minaj rapped like she did in Monster all of the time I would probably actually listen to her. It's fire.

But what's with all this hate on Tech all of a sudden? Sure I can understand some of it but come on ya'll, you know what N9ne can do.

Yeah, he consistently forms incoherent sentences.

Sentences? He's a rapper, not a fucking poet. I understand that he forces rhymes, but I find it kind of interesting as a style. His rhyming is weird, and he uses strange words. It's unique and interesting. And you're one to talk. Nicki Minaj has some of the most god-awful shitty verses known to man.

I'm not defending Nicki Minaj, I'm defending her verse on Monster.

Rappers don't use sentences? lol... Well, some actually do but you're right that Tech N9ne doesn't and you were spot on when you said he's no poet.

"Sick caca", what's that mean, man?

Her verse on Monster, while fantastic for Nicki Minaj, was nothing near the realm of great, or even GOOD. It was okay.

Cause that's what a motherfucking monster do
Hair dresser from Milan that's the monster do
Monster Giuseppe heel, that's the monster shoe
Young Money is the roster and a monster crew

Em's fucking Throw It Up verse was 5x better than this one.

Never said rappers don't use sentences, I'm just saying that they don't HAVE TO.
