| | Top 5 rappers lists from a true perspective | |
By Zebulon A couple of months ago I read an article by Vinnie Paz where he got a bunch of big names in hip hop to give him a list of their top 5 rappers of all time. Then I realized that I'm in contact with some big names as well and it would be interesting to see which names come up in everybody’s top 5’s. Not just any top 5’s, but these are top 5 lists of heads who actually knows their shit. Cats who also belong on some top 5 lists themselves. Well I approached some heads and now you can have a peep of the collection I made, of both local and international artists: SAFARI: 1) Immortal Technique2) Lowkey3) Diabolic4) Apathy5) Rots 1 POWER OF THOUGHT: (In no particular order)DiabolicLowkeyImmortal TechniqueMac LethalTheSaurus FOUL-PLAY: 1) Big L2) Eminem3) Sean Price4) Termanology5) Skyzoo DEATH STAR: 1) Eminem2) Vinnie Paz3) Celph Titled4) R.A The Rugged Man5) Possessed (Rhyme Asylum) AUTHORITY: 1) Celph Titled2) Rhyme Asylum3) Sean Strange4) Lord Have Mercy5) Onlyone NECRO(U.S.A): 1) Kool G Rap2) Necro3) Nas4) Prodigy5) Mr. Hyde CAUSTIC(U.S.A): NasEminemBig LEdanGhostface Killah JAK PROGRESSO (U.S.A):(Most listened to rappers currently.

Made me actually need to research mc's topics again, definitely has one of the most interesting careers in rap(bro dead, re emergence, supervillain character, DoomPostor shows, great collabos).3) Ghostface Killah - most emotional and outlandish and energetic stories plus got a solid personality, dude carries himself as an mc straight up 4) Black Thought - one of the most overlooked his writing style is kinda like journalism level of editing to higher quality for me. He really loves his city 5) NaS - he's basically Muhammad Ali of this rap shit SLYME: (In no order particular order)EminemMethodmanNasBig LTupac And I just couldn't resist giving my top 5 as well. Here it is: 1) Immortal Technique2) Mos Def3) Big L4) Rakim5) Umang Whose list do you feel the most? Let us know who your top 5's are!Wordup
