Sub Conscious Thoughts = old forum member?

And then there's Jean...

Who I also missed

Hahaha Mike...youuuu joined =)

I have different top 10's but I will give a general one just for the hell of it...

In no order by the way...

Tech N9ne

Lupe

K-Rino

Jean Grae

Canibus

Raw Poetic (of Panacea)

Aesop Rock

KRS-One

Mos Def

M-1 and Stic of Dead Prez


I have my reasons for each one just as everyone else does.

I really do hate making lists

Always forget someone

Ice Cube is that someone.

Anyways I'd rather just name all the dope rappers instead of ranking them, which I wont do now because I don't feel like it.

1. Tupac
2. Biggie
3. Nas
4. Rakim
5. Jay-Z
6. Eminem
7. Lupe Fiasco
8. Andre 3000 (although i cant ignore big boi's contribution to his success)
9. Common
10. Ice Cube
Big L would be top 5 if he had lived to put out 2 more albums

O I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT CANNIBUS, JUST MOVE EVERYONE ELSE DOWN ONE SPOT

THIS IS COMPLETELY BASED OFF LYRICAL ABILITY, NOTHING MORE(of course, my opinion):
1. Eminem
2. Lupe
3. Rakim
4. Big L
5. Big Pun
6. Nas
7. Jay-Z
8. Mos Def
9. Kanye West
10. KRS-One

Honestly, Jay-Z is my favorite rapper, but when I put my bias thinking aside and only judged based on lyrics(not "legend" status or record sales etc.) this is what I thought was a pretty good list.

9 Malik B ( the roots era) THe Spark , DA TRUTH
10 Amir Sulaiman ( true artist ;])




im shocked by the amout of the "Concious Rappers" who spit ignorant packed like it's the truth, in most of the lists posted. shit ain't changed since the last time i came back.

to those who say tupac spits ignorant, he does but he is da truth , them rests are p4ssays , so to say./

brother khalil wil cover the psychological effects his image and life had on the video on Concious Raps influence, his reactionary behavior and self destructive life are testaments to that.

also he also will cover that conscious Rap creates Ignorant and Maleable Persons.

Muzot 4i
