I was grew up with Hip-Hop. So I bring all the elements to bear in my top ten emcees list of all time. I hae been bumping Hip Hop formerly known as rap music for over 20 years, so i think my list nears perfection. Even though some of you might disagree.

10. Ice Cube- brought the fire into rap

9. Snoop Dogg-brought the West Coast back to life

8. KRS- One-too many styles

7. Rakim-lyrically ahead of his time

6. L.L.cool J-consistency 12 albums ( i think)

5. Eminem- originality

4. JAY-Z- took the rap from the minority to the majority

3. NAS- street poet

2. Biggie - Micheal Jordan of flow

1. Tupac-Charismatic


You ain't finding a Nelly, Ja-Rule or 50 Cent in my list!

i aint even gon mess witcha list cos that's exactly how it shd be bwoy!!!

damn right!!!

the most accurate list ever

10. LL Cool J

9. Eminem

8. Ice Cube

7. Big Daddy Kane

6. KRS-One

5. Nas

4. Rakim

3. Notorious B.I.G.

2. Tupac

1. Jay-Z

here's my list, love ur list too tolu, i know peep ar prolly thinking jay z no1 instead of tupac, but could u imagine if God forbid jay z were to die today, the kind of love and publicity he would get.

@blue

dat is my list exactly except that ll cool j aint there, i put diddy instead(cuzz we are namesakes)

i will go wit Tolu's list but i will put Eminem for number 3 and then put Nas for 5

Your list is WRONG.

10 Tupac
9 Eminem
8 Jean Grae
7 Talib Kweli/ Big Bot of Outkast Can't decide
6 Michael Franti of Disposable heroes of hiphoprisy/Spearhead
5 Mos Def
4 Chuck D of Public Enemy
3 KRSOne
2 Afrika Bambaataa
1 Grandmaster Flash

If you don't know- now you know.

I am not saying my list is perfect. But I think you need to step your rap game up and look beyond sentiments.

A Jean Grae on a Hip Hop list of all time be serious!!!!! When people like Redman, Big Daddy Kane, Big Pun, Kool G Rap, Latifah and Salt N' Pepa did not cut the list.

How the hell did a Jean Grae make it? What are your indices? You just had to chuck a woman in there huh?

A Big Boi from OUTKAST, lol, you trying to be funny right. Even in the group Andre 3000 gets more shine, so how did he make it into rap's elite.

Maybe you should put Eedris Abdul Kareem whilst you at it.

thats funny man, eedris. hahahahhahahaa.

diz iz my list

10 - mos def
9 - nas
8 - ice cube
7 - jay z

i dont know man. im like seeing tupac,biggie, nas and jayz on first 4 and im like what d f*** is wrong?fine these people did great but eeeeeeem tupac and big? ok , i agree but nas and jayz in top 4 is hiphosphemy.what is even the yardstick here? if its number of albums dropped,then ll cool j and gangstarr would take it. if its lyrical venom,better start thinking MOP,mature style, you gats to give rakin,and ice cube,unsettling lyrics? then think guru, black thought.if its the all round thang, we can say BIG and pac,speed? cmon y'all fu schnikkens and bone.however you see it, i salute the person who put on grand master flash and chuck d. though you ought to remeber public enemy, digital underground and daz efx. i'll stand any day for jean grae, but on the all timer list? no. give her more time.if oyu are looking for eminem here, try another thread cos his existence only springs up bullshit attitude and the like of modern day 50 cent
