Greatest Rapper Of All Time by Mobinga: 1:28am On Mar 27, 2011
Theres only one goat, not goats, and that sir is Nasir Jones. Nas.
Here's a quote from him.

"There is no best or greatest MC. Should never happen, doesn't make sense," he said in a blog post. "It makes sense temporarily when you're striving to be number one. It makes sense for [the fans] to see that, but you have a long run to be the greatest. To me, people already felt like they were [the greatest] in more ways than they should have and I think that hurt them. There is no greatest of all time. We won't know that until we're 60 years old. I think there will be like four to five great ones at the end of the day, but there will be none that's greater than the other. Impossible, [Jay-Z] is the one that smacks everybody in the face that's out there and wanted to say what he wasn't and what he couldn't do. The challenge is that people always count you out and even when you have a hit record and put out a hit album, you're gonna have people dissing you. I think he's showing you: I won't be stopped ever. And that's motivation for everyone else."
- Nas

That quote alone makes him the greatest!

Vote Ha!
I'm leaving out the Pacs, BIGs, Rakims, Slick Ricks, Mos defs, black thoughts, KRS Ones, Kwelis, Commons etc from this. Much respect to them.

Leaving Eminem out of the polls would be uncivilized. You get?

I see lots of people voting for FEminem, when I get to a pc imma delete him from the polls. He doesn't even deserve a top 7 spot.

Am mobile so I can't see no poll there.

However, rest assured, if the likes of Big Pun, Big L are not on the list, just delete the bombarclaaat poll.

What the hell.

I am the definition of Hip Hop. I've set up a petition that Oxford should add Mobinga as a synonym of Hip Hop.

I live Hip Hop. I don';t like the wack shit errone is putting out these days.

They are in a position to give me music, I am in a position to criticise the WACK!

If I was God I'd kill all the WACK!

Re: Greatest Rapper Of All Time by A40(m): 2:51pm On Mar 29, 2011
I would start by scratching out Pac and Biggie


Consistency!! He is the only living rapper clearly bigger than rap and none of these new rappers are even fit to lace his boots never mind take over from Young Hova

Jay-Z all day!
Re: Greatest Rapper Of All Time by eldee(m): 7:29pm On Mar 30, 2011
LOL @ Soulja boi, Wacka Floka, 2Pac, Plies, Gucci Mane being the greatest rapper of all time. grin grin

But I'm leaning towards Hova, he perfected what Biggie did, he's not only consistent but has managed to siglehandedly stay influential through different eras of hiphop.

Relevance?? We hear KRS-One and the other oldies talk, no one listens. . .  but check this, who kills a new fad with his 11th album?? That's some Bono status maynne.

Mic skills?? And you can't say he's not good with the technical part of hiphop, he's adapted with time. You'll be silly to question his verse on Most Kings or Power (Remix). I listened to Rakim's last album and I was laughing at how basic his rhyme skills are . . . that ish is outdated man.

Commercial success. . . we talk about how the internet has been bad for sales, well Jay-Z is second only to Eminem in recent album sales . . . so no comment. grin

If you say Em, Nas, or Biggie, I won't argue.
