Lupe is the shit! For me it'd have to go

1) Nas
2) Macklemore
3) Hopsin
4) Lupe
5) B.o.b

These are just what I'm really into right now. My GOAT list (minus Em) is:

1) Nas
2) Andre
3) Pac
4) Jay
5) Macklemore (give it time, and listen to his 2005 shit. dude's as much an emcee to the core as Em)

i'm in the same boat, biggie has incredible cadence but other than that none of those artists can hold a candle to today's top artists. which isn't to say i'm not appreciative for what they did for hiphop, but they would literally get stomped out (jay included) by todays lyrical heavyweights.

i really like this thread and that one about posting your hiphop story/timeline, gives you some perspective on many of these members :laughing:

some of you are so cookie cutter that it's almost sad

Hopsin had major potential right around the time Ill Mind 4 came out. That was his best shit ever imho. If he had kept that up and didn't quit for 10 years, he could have been a GOAT. Ill mind 5 was dope but it all went down hill from there. Knock Madness is a decent album, but a major disappointment compared to where his trajectory was headed.
