The fact that you have talib on the list makes me want to give 1,7,and 8 a try. Nice.

Try a copy of "The 18th Letter" or "The Master" by Rakim. His producer isn't that tight, but his lyrics and delivery are in a class of their own

I haven't been following the rap scene closely in quite some time but here's a few rather popular ones that I used to listen to regularly 5-10 years ago.
-Lil Boosie -Andre Nickatina -Webbie -Trick Daddy -Ballgreezy -Mac Dre -Pastor Troy -Pitbull (pre 2005) -T.I. -Nas -C Murda
--------------------

50 will never make a top list for me. Get Rich or Die trying was good but everything else was mediocre as fuck. That first album was just right place right time with the best producer ever.

I agree. "Get rich" was him in his prime. You need to check your facts tho, that was NOT his first album. Just his first commercial hit and the album that put him on the map

Lol I hear you. After he got obsessed with money his albums paid a heavy, heavy price. But with that being said, "Get rich or die tryin" and "the massacre" were worth a pretty penny. If his new album (that drops this year) is anything like his past few, he has no place in my top 10 list

50 is only good for hooks. he might be the GOAT when it comes to hooks. other than that hes sub par as a rapper. and Em isnt top 5, let alone top 10, even lyrically. only top 5 he makes is most overrated rappers

Who cares about "rappers". What are you gonna learn from hearing, "Ya bitch, ya nigga, fuck that hoe" and variations of the exact same thing in rhyme form.
Rap will pollute your mind.

Hopsin is pretty lyrically talented, I'm not a gigantic rap fan so idk if he's top 10 worthy, but out of all the rappers I know he definitely is up there.
Most of his lyrics aren't all "nigga this, nigga that"....actually has content in it.
