    Dont see why people constantly differentiate rappers from artists. Are rappers not considered artists?

    Sort of devalues "rap" when you put it like that.

    big, jay, ghost, and nas have to be in any top ten. you can make strong cases for wayne and rakim. (dre too, though he's a weird case--outkast is probably the best musical act of the past three decades, but how do you rank half of a group?) lauryn hill's debut is great, The Score is great, but i don't see how you put her above a good thirty to forty other rappers. eminem and kendrick shouldn't be considered. maybe kendrick one day if he gets back on track.

    Lauryn Hill was a reach as well, she's someone that deserves credit but not that much.

    Wayne influenced Kendrick and many other current rappers. His impact is undeniable whether you like him or not tbh.

    This is a "I've been listening to hip-hop for one year" type of list. When it's not safe, it's stupid.

    i mean, that doesn't work as a way to dismiss kanye. it just doesn't. i think you can have a very respectable top ten without him, but if we were doing this on pure rapping ability, where's pharoahe monch? where's aceyalone? where's young thug?

    Relevance isn't directly proportional to the quality of music though.
