post an argument of who should be #10 so we all can come to conclusion of who it will be i think big daddy kane MF DOOM:
IMO best artist of the 21st Century.
VERY unique Style
Crazy Lyrics, and hes still in the Game and can only get better with time
BDK should be higher than 10
I never really did like Cube that much.. idk why i guess its cuz i dont really like all that Gangsta Sh*t rap..
I think he gets honorable mention. I still say Doom get #10.
Hes still in the game, and and only get higher with time
Why dont u think Doom should be top 10?
Yeah lets start at #1
well restart tommorow It should be cube..no, he's not as amazing lyrically as say..IDK rass kass..but look at what he's done..he wrote for 3 parts of the legendary NWA (Dre, Eazy and himself), not to mention he had two of his own classics..I know his recent stuff been fallin off, but I think that based upon his skills and repitore, he should be # 10 cosign DOOM
i'd put Com higher
i think it'd be easier to go from #1
we should also do Album of the Year from each year. after this thread, i *suggest we continue this tomorrow, when more people will be on
#10- Common
a catalog with few blemishes, but he's stood the test of time, one of the best pure lyricists ever
*AZ, it would kinda be easier to start at 1....but that kinda takes the fun out of it if we do #1 first..but it would be easier..iono
EDIT: Ant, u wanna just start from scratch tomorrow and decide to start at 10 or 1? Ice Cube all the way.
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?... I'm gonna switch it up a little bit and say Common is the 10th best MC of all time, I know this is probably gonna be an unpopular choice but there's no denying that Resurrection was an absolute classic, putting Chicago on the map once and for all. I Used to Love H.E.R. is possibly one of the most ingenious rap songs ever, we've seen his versatility with Electric Circus and Be was damn near perfect. Common has a great command of the mic, intelligent lyrics, and very clear vocals. He has represented a certain genre of rap that very few have succeeded in. Beyond all expectations the man even battled Ice Cube and held his own
edit: I take back my first few sentances, looks like HNIC beat me to it! Yeah lets Start from one cause d@mn im I dont no who would be 9 ahead. Lol.

every cd went platnum great lyrices great story teller fall off after 3rd cd brung it back with grand champ but fell off again with last cd 01. The Notorious B.I.G.
02. Nas

04. Jay-Z
05. KRS-One
06. 2Pac
07. Ice Cube
08. Scarface
09. Eminem
10. LL Cool J
The Notorious B.I.G. never had a wack verse, both of his official albums were classics, he was way ahead of his time and the most skillful to ever hold the mic.
Yo Ant I think you should say who's the best mc from place #1 to place #10. And then we should come up with notable mentions like MTV did.
My 11-15 are:
11. Big Daddy Kane
12. Common
13. Snoop Dogg
14. Chuck D
15. DMX
Since they all deserve to shine too. I think BDK should be at least 5 lil boosie
