I agree with the list, although i think everyones list should be different since we all have different tastes.

I agree wiv some things in the list but (for my opinion) i think 2pac shd be at least b4 biggie. Maybe soem of u guys don't agree wiv dat but as someone said b4 evryone has different tastes.
And to tell u the truth of all the time i've liked rap i've never heard nearly nuthin about rakim so i don't rly kno him.
Cause i've ahven't been a long time liking rap(about 3-4 years ago)most of those rappers i don't even kno.
By the way i thought em wud be at least at the top 10.

well people aint glorifying those rappers for nothing. Stop listning to MTV and check out the real hip hop (coz MTV or TV for the matter has no intrest in bringing up history, they just promote people for money)


Rakim originated inteligent flow in hip hop. before him, people were rhyming elimentary lyrics and rigit flows like the DMC had.

Daddy Kane has a well deserved spot there too, and if u really enjoy hip hop u sort of owe it to urself to check that shit.



And the top 10 aint gone be taken by a rapper from this era... those rappers on there are the favourite rappers of your favourite rappers. lol.

Well i don't watch MTV cause i don't have it and the only way i get news from all these rappers and stuff is by looking on internet like thsi site :smoking:
in Spain ppl don't give much about american rappers only the main known ones which r Eminem and 50Cent (maybe some others aswell)
i sometiems kno some news which happened maybe a year l8er
about the G-Unot crap i realsied about a year l8er cause in Spain they don't show all that
they're only intersted in Spanish rap which i like but American rap is betta :worship:
