Name 3 Wack/Bad/Average/Good/Great Rappers

Postby Satire » Mar 18th, '11, 01:27

I made this topic a while back when I first joined, but for Eminem songs. I figured it could work under this basis too. Maybe it'll even help expand somebody's taste in good/bad music.

My example

Wack (Grade F): Gucci Mane, Bizarre, Mahmoud 48
Bad (Grade D): Tyga, Sam Adams, Stat Quo
Average (Grade C): Mac Miller, Cashis, Drake (Mad?)
Good (Grade B): J. Cole, Shad, Freeway
Great (Grade A): Eminem, Big Pun, Tech N9ne

Kay, now your turn.

You keep mentioning Giggs quite frequently, I think you have a secret addiction to him tbh.

People abuse the word classic SO MUCH, it's damn annoying. The majority of Eminem's songs aren't classic, and he's my favorite rapper. A song being sick does not make it classic...

Eminem, to me, is the rapper with the most classics.

IMO he has around 4-8 classic songs.

Those are personal classics, you'll notice I wrote "I consider them between great and classic" I really don't give a shit about the overall views of what's classic and what isn't at this point I rank everything by personal opinion only. What I consider classic could be considered average by someone else, that won't change my view on it.
