what makes this so funny is he put lil b in as joke but put wayne seriously

  

Besides Rakim, I meant that whole list as a joke.
Wayne might be top 10 of all time...not top 5.

 

[jerome in the house]

Ghost
Nas
Em
Lupe
Mos


Mos and Talib switch off. Last week I would have Talib as my 5. But now I'm rolling with Mos. The Estatic and Black on Both Sides have been in heavy rotation.

lol @ some of these top5s but for me

-Eminem
-Jayz
-Nas
-Tupac
-Notorious B.I.G.
-Drake

In no particular order b/c of their own lyricism and style

 

[Bonafide]

Jay
Eminem
Nas
Big Pun
Joe Budden

 

[delete]

1. 2Pac
2. B.I.G.
3. Big Pun
4. Eminem
5. Nas

Honarable Mention : Ice Cube, DMX, Jay-Z, Prodigy, Styles P

 

[moneyisthemotive]

1. Eminem
2. Scarface
3. 2pac

everyone else is pretty much even ... One rappers strength is another rappers weakness and vice versa ... I listen to that top 3 the most for the past decade + ... only person who still has a chance to make me put a number 4 is lil Wayne cuz he's only 26 or somethin ... He's got enough good songs in his catalogue to be in a top 5 but with 2-3 more solid albums and/or mixtapes he is definitely up there ... Anyone who thinks otherwise is lying to themselves ...

...

Live Boy's list is probably the only one I can agree with

 

[cadillacflow]

1- Big Boi
2- 3000
3- Pac
4- Jay
5- Big

This is MY personal favorite so, hate on....

 

[calikev34]

NaS
BIG

Jay

Em

Jada

I'm curious to how can ppl consider Pac one of the best rappers ever

I would consider him great in several categories. Dude was an amazing leader, ativist, etc

But rapping? It's all about lyricism, and he's not evenn close

 

[essential1]

1. Jay
2. Pac
3. BIG
4. Nas
5. Rakim
