than neither is metal

Why you say that???


why do you say rap isnt?

Because rap is nothing more than loud junk.

Well, I could say the exact same thing about metal, but that would make me an ignaroant fool like you. Listen to this and tell me that all rap sucks.

Blackalicious is probably one of the best out right now. But Talib Kweli is also very good.

I agree with that statement. I think Deception's pretty good, much better than what people generally think rap is.

Nas, Mos Def, Andre 3000, Murs, Phonte, Immortal technique, Common, Talib kweli, Rakim, MF Doom, are among the best rappers alive right now. I'd have to giove the edge to nas though, he's a sick lyricist and he has alot of meaningful songs.

Rapping is not the same as talking. You don't rap the same way you'd talk to someone. Fail:)

Attention people who don’t like rap, cheese, puppies or whatever. If someone posts a thread asking what the best rapper, cheese, puppy, or whatever is your participating is entirely unnecessary. If you don’t like it walk away and let the folks who do post rather than moan about how you don’t like something.

And we went from pro rap to anti rap in .14 seconds. A new record for OT. Anyway, I'm too damned tired to try and 'defend' something that doesn't need to be defended, but the best ones out right now: Nas, Talib Kweli, Lupe (But he still needs to show me more), Black Thought, Aesop Rock (Hey, I like him), and Immortal Technique. A lot of honourable mentions out there, though.

The GZA... The GZA/Genius is slammin.

NaS, Rakim, KRS-One, Chuck D, there's so many great rappers, but I think GZA is my favorite.  The fact that he's from the Wu gives him a slight edge.

Boston University rep'n baby!!!!!!!!!!! I love Aesop. Talib Kweli, Common and Immortal Technique are my top three with Murs comin next.

They're all dopeness.  Talib Kweli, bangin on ya eardrum.

Blackstar, the album Talib and Mos Def put out, ranks among my favorite albums.  It's easily top three, constantly, and sometimes I change up on my favorite albums.

I'm not too much of an Aesop Rock fan though, he raps weird, I can't put my finger on it but there's something about his flow I don't like.  But from Definitive Jux, I like Murs and Mr. Lif.  Lif is ****in DOPE, have you ever heard I Phantom?

Outkast, Nas, Talib Kweli, Common, Kanye West (I know alot of you may disagree), Akon (more singer, but I really like his stuff), Eminem (admit it, he's good) 50 Cent (SOOO overrated, but he is really good, just not as great as everyone says), and Jay-Z.
