I'm gonna have to go with Biggie too, cuz everyone says he's so amazing...and idk..he might have good lyrics or w/e, but i can't stand listening to him, he just isn't appealing to me at all, same with Jay-Z.

Did you change the topic tittle?

Hands down:

Biggie - Easily one of the most overrated rappers of all time. He doesn't warrant to be in any discussion about the Great Emcee's of all time. Generic Rapper. Big's content was really reptitive (same applies to Big L). Lyrically he's in the same category as wayne, good word play but... If this offend's any of you oh well. You've been brainwashed to believe he's greater than he really is.
Nas - Monotone voice. Undeniable talent but... I can't help but just skim through his tracks. He's not the GOAT and never will be. Outside off Illmatic and It Was Written he's gone flat.
Big L - A glorified gangster rapper. No diversity at all.

Big L overrated? He has some of the greatest punch lines I've ever heard.

before I buck lead, and make a lot of blood shed
Turn your tux red, I'm far from broke, got enough bread
And mad hoes, ask Beavis I get nuttin Butt-head

One of my fave lines.. the butt head line is crazy .. wordplay at its best.

You just don't know who he is. Lifestylez Ov Da Poor & Dangerous is one of my faves album. Big Ls not overrated - hes underrated.

I agree his newer stuff isn't on the College Dropout level but calling him the worst rapper ever is a little extreme.

Vakill's punchlines > Big L's punchlines.

Anway, he pretty much revolutionized the game, I'll give him that. Lifestylez Ov Da Poor & Dangerous was a classic, I've heard all of L's work no need to link. I have nothing against the dude, but when every bar is about knocking my head off or having fly jewels... shit gets annoying to listen to. I would def. say he should be ranked higher than Pun.

Every Sunday, a nun lay from my gun spray
Fuck Carlito, we doin' shit the Devil Son's way
Every minute, my style switches up
They said a real man won't hit a girl, well I ain't real cause I beat bitches up

Real shit loool.

He just plain sucks. He should quit rapping instantly, and stick to producing.

Do I need to say more? I just hate his music, he has no flow in my opinion, no lyrics to speak of and one fucking annoying voice. :n:
