Some may scoff at this placement on the list, but Lil Wayne is deserving. But in the meantime let's do this, counting down the list of the best rappers of all time. Does popularity equal skill and vice versa? The answer might surprise you. What's also interesting is to see which one of these artists makes the list of the richest rappers as well. If you don't find your favorite rappers somewhere on this page, you should explore some of the artists listed and see if they expand your horizons and ideas of what's possible or complex in the rap game. Finally, at the end, there's still more rappers who have what it takes but need a bit more time for refinement and maturity. We'll start with the top 10 best rappers of all time, then we'll move on to the runners up who are real close to breaking into the top of the list. That means we're analyzing advanced rhyme schemes, multisyllabic rhyming, keeping the lyrics sensible while dancing through these technicalities, and also being genuine and authentic in their messaging.

They need to have been on the scene long enough to prove they can stay consistent, too. All we care about is pure, technical skill levels, whether they're on a major label or an independent outfit. It doesn't matter who calls themselves the G.O.A.T. It doesn't give bonus respect points to those who are old school. This list doesn't care about who's popular. And that's "Who's makes the list of the best rappers of all time?" Everyone has an opinion and it's usually based on popularity instead of skill.

heck, it's probably exploded into a full blown argument. cops hookers crawlin off the stroll, coughin stitches in they head, stinkin and I dread thinkin they be snitchin But who else, could it be, shook at these, unmarked vans Parked in the dark - NARC's, where's your heart? Hustlers starve they bust a U-e I jog to my building - come out later wearin camouflage See the sergeant and the captain - strangle men Niggaz gaspin for air til they move no more and just stare with dead eyes - tired of riots, shit is quiet Simple-minded fools infiltrate grimy crews Overcrowded cribs, uncles home from bids, sister's pregnant father's on drugs, moms is smokin, beds is piss-infested Had eight partners growin up, eight turned to seven Seven turned to six niggaz, got two in heaven Six of us, holdin it, now it's five rollin thick The sixth one's parole flipped five niggaz, went to fo' quick when he went O.T., college life, converted into gangbangin Four niggaz still hangin, years passed and slang changin Three of us now, fourth nigga ain't around We all thought he was real - he did the snake shit Fake shit - beat his ass down, yo his mouth could've got us all wasted, what a fuckin clown All I got left in the end is two of my best friends And we all goin out, to the death for these ends, WHAT? -NAS ( N.Y.Every rap fan has had this conversation. However, hes run Def Jam to the ground, and gives no others in Def Jam advertisement.īroken glass in the hallway bloodstained floors Neighbors look at every bag you bring through your doors Lock the top lock momma shoulda cuffed me to the radiator Why not? It might've saved me later from my block N.Y. However, he is also probably the smartest rapper alive After getting murdered by NaS, Jay saw he was losing miserably in their beef.So how does the dude come back on top?He gets control over Def Jam, signs NaS, and then keeps pushing back Nasir's CD untill Jay is ready to drop his right around the same time, yet push his own CD on advertisements much much much more, so he still ends up selling more and it looks like he beat NaS.Then he signs a horrible rapper, Young Jeezy, who is somehow insanely popular, and puts his CD coming out RIGHT around NaS's CD so it looks like some whack dude outsold Nasir, and then Jay can really show people that he beat NaS that bad.That was a dirty, slick, and ingenius move.I gotta give him props for that one. A rapper who is very talented, yet horribly overrated.He doesnt even make the top 10, barely making the top 25.Hes w/o a doubt NOT the best rapper ever, not even close.However, he's still talented, and has some amazing tracks like Dead Presidents II, and 99 Problems.However, he also has tons of commercial trash.
