Hip-Hop largely fails as a live artform so no. Vocal music is as good live as electronic/instrumental music unless someone has an amazing voice.

You can mask the set on stage with lighting effects, dancers, and pyrotechnics or grab the entire clique backstage and bumrush the stage where everybody is wildin' out. Strip all that gimmick crap and you still got the artist you came to see......long story short, most rappers do NOT put on good live shows by themselves...still doesn't mean they don't/can't put out good music.

Kid Cudi, Cam'ron, and Q-Tip are some other rappers I've seen live, who were actually great.
