Rappers' singing ability

[LMShady]

Which rappers in your eyes have the best singing ability? "Stronger Than I Was" got me thinking of when rappers have sung on records and who can pull it off. Specifically with with Eminem I don't think he can sing very well but despite this he still sounds quite melodic in my opinion. A few that sprung to mind are the likes of:

Kanye West - 808's & Heartbreaks was practically an all sung album by him. However over uses the auto-tune a little bit too much for my liking.

Kid Cudi - I really like Cudi's singing, similar to Em I don't think he's that talented at singing but still sounds good for some reason.

B.o.B - He sings a fair bit too, he doesn't have a bad singing voice. Is definitely adaptable to singing on a few records. Perhaps "Don't Let Me Fall" is a good example from his records.

There's probably a lot more that I can't think of, any more good examples?

B.o.B out of that list. Kanye needs autotune, that's not real singing.

Also forgetting Drizzy tha nizzy

Krizz Kaliko - I prefer Krizz's singing over his rapping, but he's gifted either way. He has strictly singing songs, rap songs and a mix of both. Check out "Love You 2 Death" and "Why Me?" (which showcases both of his skills)

Tonedeff - Not only does he have one of the best flows, rapid fire rap speed and great rhyming capabilities, he also does a great bit of singing. He has an all singing EP called The Projectionist under his moniker Peter Anthony Red, but he does sing on his other albums. Check out "Gathered" and "Sunrise" (which showcases both of his skills.)

Wax - I believe Wax used to be in a band back in the day, but aside from rapping, he does some singing. He does have more of a rockish style using acoustic or heavy guitars. Check out "She Used To Be Mine" and "Limousine". (which showcases both of his skills). He's also quite funny and has clever rhymes.

Krizz Kaliko and Yelawolf are the best singing rappers

[dbeauluvswomen]

I agree. Wax is very talented when he puts together music. There aren't many songs from him I dislike and I occasionally listen to his older stuff in his Youtube videos. I wish he'd record some. I want "Five Days" in CD quality.

Fail on my part forgetting Drake But damn, Yelawolf can actually sing pretty well too.

I get back up and UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Baby please don't leave

ETC.

Yela, B.o.B, Hopsin are good singers, imo. Kanye + autotune = , though.

[Sea triscuit]

I like J cole's singing

[Notalius]

Ya'll are forgetting the best one tbh

[Kill You]

I luv Objects In The Mirror.

[eXceL]

How could you guys forget lauryn hill and mos def, they can sing their asses off

[Trilla]

B.o.B out of that list. Kanye needs autotune, that's not real singing.

As if Eminem doesn't use autotune. You think that's his real voice on Stronger Than I Was? No way that was him singing in a pitch that high.
