[JC4P]

Whats wrong w/ Crunk people?

[*CrackedRearView*]

I'm actually not a fan of rap, but I like Nas...so he's my choice.

So who is the sickest rapper(s) out of the above? Man that is a hard choice..i have to say..EMINEM! baby..

lol what is with everyone being like, "yah that movie was sick" or "yah that rapper is sick" lol. neway out of those choices i would have to say Eminem or Kayne West...

[Mr. Slowjamz]

Nas .......50 also ...i hate to admit it but sooner or later his music will be in a downfall .......just listening to his new album ......it sucks .

[katssso]

hmm kinda tough decision.

[azn_r4pf4n]

[purestkiss101]

KANYE WEST & Jay-Z & Nas

[xquizit]

im a HUGE mac dre fan ... but you cant seriously him as the sickest rapper out... unless you are taling about health.. (rip) the dopest lyricist out of the bay has to be frontline or balance...

id say iout of your list Nas... Mobb Deep was pretty dope when they released The Infamous and I enjoyed Amerikkas Nightmare

[Saeglopur]

Rapping is not me... well, it was ... but it wasn't even rapping. Anyway, I'd have to say Nas. He's a cool guy.

[CUTEBUNNY160]

eminem baby. he kicks ass

[SienaJade]

I guess I'd say Eminem?

[Rachel]

kanye is the only "rap" CD i own. i think he is talented and hillllarious. hell, even my mother likes him

[*basick*]

im wondering... why are you guys basing nas's career on I Can...

[Godsend]

currently!??? dmx died dude....(he only released a few albums btw)

why dont u have other rappers like snoop dogg, nate dogg, warren g, ja rule, the game, etc...

anthony hamilton currently...but i prefer tupac.

[*basick*]

anthony hamilton currently...but i prefer tupac.

anthony hamilton iosnt a rapper

[Godsend]

o my bad, his name appears so much in duets wiff tupac but maybe i'd choose bone thugz and harmony...(what about south park mexican)?

[Trolling]

How can you have fat joe up there but not Jay Z... Wtf is wrong with you little boy... God all these rap/freestyling craze and music video corrupts the mind.... I.E like this one -.-

[D1SMANTLED]

psh... sickest?

stop it with the (ridiculous) slang.

[KELLYYY]

50 cent...his making lyrics too horny and dirtier.

Agreed.

[azndreamer]

i thought you meant whose the worst. haha. Umm, well lil jon is hardly a rapper considering his vocabulary consists of "yea-uh" & "what?!?!" and hes extremely gross looking. the best would have to be tupac or eminem.

[dahding]

probably nas. even tho i don't really like rap.

[misoshiru]

what do you mean by sickest? O_o

[AngelTears]

i'm assuming when you say sickest your using slang..

And sense Jay-Z is not one of your choices I'll go with Eminem as my choice.

[racoons > you]

sickest? o dear...

i chose kanye west.. i dont like rpap, but he seems very.... nice

[Angel_Cece]

jadakiss and nas are the realest ones out there!

[wayne]

*sigh*..... jay isnt on this thread.....

H.O.V....





well i guess out of the people on the list.. Nas is the best.




lil john doesnt really even rap... he's... mroe of a producer.. his cd is nothing but.. screaming and sh*t...



NEXT TIME PUT JAY-Z ON HTE LIST!

[ilauqh]

kayne west is more of a producer... i dont consider him a rapper...

^ I agree...

what's with "sickest".. eh. i like eminem a lot more than i used to. i'm not really into rap that much though. but i like him & a couple of other ppl.

[uLoVeMikeRoch]

currently!??? dmx died dude....(he only released a few albums btw)

why dont u have other rappers like snoop dogg, nate dogg, warren g, ja rule, the game, etc...

anthony hamilton currently...but i prefer tupac.

What the hell are you talking about?
Dmx isnt dead .... yet.
Eh, id Pick DMX anyway either him or Jay-Z Eminem maybe snoop?
But almost all of them arent on your list...

[DanielleMaria05]

I like a lot of them. I don't think one is "sicker" than the other. they are just good.

[*xcaitlinx*]

none of the above. i despise rap.

[Teesa]

hm. I would say eminem and kanye.

[mickybeans]

eminem. don't like any of the others too much -__-

[5ayuri]

Sickest? I believe they are all in good health at the moment. ;-)

ahhaha yup true.
...um....i think nas

[xXirockhardXx]

I say kanye west.

[hollesther]

Why is Kanye West sick?I don't really know about him..

[jr0h]

hm im not into rap at all. as a matter of fact i despise it. but kanye west really stands out. so i'd have to say him if i had to choose.

[to-devastate]

I'm not a big rap fan but Nas, Eminem, & Kayne West are my faves among those choices.

[Shana_Kru]

nah "sik" is cool...bt 4 sum reasson they way he sed it...it just didnt sound rite..nt at all...nt at all...sickest...nt a great werd..it sounded try hardy...but yeah mobb deeps got me...ur selections kinda shit thou (no offence)

[ItzOnlySydney]

Sickest? I believe they are all in good health at the moment. ;-)

haha just what i was thinking.

[simx]

If by sickest you mean... good, then Eminem

[funbobby]

they all suck, eminem is a joke and he got 30% of the vote, kanye next. Actually I think this is more proportional of what plays on the radio the most. EMINEM HATER. There is no musical talent there, if your going to say he rocks, you should have some musical basis behind your argument.

[*tweeak*]

Wait-

"sickest" as in good or "sickest" as in bad, well...sick sick?

[*tweeak*]

I don't understand these things.

How is sick good?

and how being the shit a compliment?

but then again, I don't understand how it's ok for black people to call each other "nigger," either

backwards backwards backwards. I still insist that if you really want equality, this isn't the way to go about it.

You must not only rise but also converge.

yeahhhhhhhhhh I actually learn things in language arts

and am going to shut up now.

but I liked that one Kanye song...and Golddigger had been stuck in my head, though I haven't decided whether or not I like it yet

[Tribal J_Rome]

[edit] woops, didn't know we had to choose from the list lol

i guess kanye?

where's Immortal Technique?! he's a GOD

[*liquidize*]

wheres the game?

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

all of these rappers suck, except for nas...old school mobb deep is tight tho, as well as x-zibit.

what you kno bout the infamous MAC D.R.E.?

Im just gonn` guess your from around the Bay or the Valley. Mac Dre Gooo if yadadamean`.

Those rappers are old [ well in my area at least ] So iunno. Lately their songs havent been on the radio but i do love me some oldschoo Mobb Deep or Nas or something.

[DrEaMgUy2K1]

you people act like you never heard "sick" or "sickest" ever in ur life lol

Eminem hands down.

[vash1530]

eminem has definitly fallen off
once upon a time he was the most clever emcee on the scene...well...whatever...
nas of the list but will you get off the commercial scene!!
overall id have to say cannibus but right now u guys should check out this internet emcee Warbux. Also, don't sleep on King Author and the C.A.D.E.T.S. (if you dont know who they are, check out their website: http://www.beyodmeasure.4t.com
dont sleep on these guys they are fcki lyrically awsome.
Anyway thats just me..

[DrEaMgUy2K1]

fat joe, lil john and his crunk people, and 50 cent shouldnt even be on this poll

they all use the same lyrics over and over again and even change words same they can ryhme or not ryhme at all.

as for eminem eh, yea his last album wasnt so impressive but u cant just judge him by that alone, i kinda like mike shinoda, anyone else think hes worthy of being up there?

[vash1530]

[edit] woops, didn't know we had to choose from the list lol

i guess kanye?

where's Immortal Technique?! he's a GOD

immortal technique is not by far agod. Good emcee yea.
as for the game, hes decent at best.

[meleonade]

eww they all are...especially 50 cent

[vash1530]

immortal technique is not by far agod. Good emcee yea.
as for the game, hes decent at best.
mike shinoda is a ill up and comer and i liked him when he was rhymin for linkin park. btw is he still with them and if so when does their next cd hit!!?

[sandy_lumpy_shor...]

wheres K-fed!?!?! (kevin federline)
















omgosh, totally kidding. Umm I would say Kanye West or Eminem.

[*liquidize*]

immortal technique is not by far agod. Good emcee yea.
  as for the game, hes decent at best.

the game has the best shit, ever hear of that 300 bars song? i'm still trippin over that.

[let me post]

regular joe aka hustle and flow aka jumpoff joe beezy aka the one and only aka the king of jersey aka that dude aka JOE BUDDEN!!!!!!!!!!!!

[*tweeak*]

That's just slang.
That's because it isn't.

But aggrivating slang. Sorry, I got off on a bit of a rant...

Technically, though, but much of the black population of Norcross has not caught on to that fact.

[vash1530]

the game has the best shit, ever hear of that 300 bars song? i'm still trippin over that.

300 bars was one of his better tracks but if you want sumthin to really trip over, check out 100 bars by canibus.

[mzbbc]

out of the choices i would say nas... but i am in love with T.I.

[steezahh]

nasty sick? or in like words [profanity] ? whatever i choose eminem cause out of all those rappers i HATTTTEE EMINEM! he can die.

[d0t0rg]

Q-Strange

[ecargnmyst]

eminem =] hes like the only rapper i know who even non rap fans listen to and find inspiration from ...but i listen to a bit of rap...and i like young buck too..and i dont like...hmmm...whats his name..this one guy from gunit..

[HappyHeart]

Lil Jon

[vash1530]

^sux

[hi-C]

Must there be a poll? Why force people to choose from a set list? Especially since a lot of those people *cough*Lil Jon*cough* suck.

[vash1530]

there are very few rappers who i still respect. only nas has a place on your list.

[uLoVeMikeRoch]

So who is the sickest rapper(s) out of the above? Man that is a hard choice..i have to say..EMINEM! baby..

Definitley Not you.

[vash1530]

anybody heard of can-i-bus!!!!

[fameONE]

^Can-I-Bus had weak beats and is completely irrelevant, despite his lyrical talent.

Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Common, MF Doom, KanYe West, Rhymefest, Consequence, 4 Ize, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Common, MF Doom, KanYe West, Rhymefest, Consequence, 4 Ize, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Common, MF Doom, KanYe West, Rhymefest, Consequence, 4 Ize, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Common, MF Doom, KanYe West, Rhymefest, Consequence, 4 Ize, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Common, MF Doom, KanYe West, Rhymefest, Consequence, 4 Ize, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Common, MF Doom, KanYe West, Rhymefest, Consequence, 4 Ize, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Common, MF Doom, KanYe West, Rhymefest, Consequence, 4 Ize, eh, you get the picture.

[faboloso88]

currently!??? dmx died dude....(he only released a few albums btw)

why dont u have other rappers like snoop dogg, nate dogg, warren g, ja rule, the game, etc...

anthony hamilton currently...but i prefer tupac.

wow wthell is dis guy talkina bout LMAo

[faboloso88]

and the best rapper rite now nas and joe budden

[fameONE]

^Hey n00b, no double posting.

Joe Budden is garbage, and he's lost influence in the mixtape game. He can't hold a candle to Saigon, Jay Bezel or Jae Millz.

Nas is ill, but my man did release a couple of garbage albums.

[yo pusha]

Joe Budden is garbage, and he's lost influence in the mixtape game. He can't hold a candle to Saigon, Jay Bezel or Jae Millz.

BRANDON??? I'm going to assume that you haven't really listened to Joe Budden and your just making a generalization based on his debut album.

talkin bout he real he got equipped with a glock // but like kurt thomas he cant do shit on the block

some want me chained to a cell // but like julia roberts in oceans 12 they just playin themselves

sometimes i have to dumb down for these fake dudes to see us // so i might throw in an extra line like a fake adidas

who you rap dudes tryin to be son // you not a contender, you the dude that died tryna to be one

how the gun blinds these cowards want mine // but their big men are soft like the dallas front line

i hate guns like i hate condoms - dont like the feel to it // but i gotta stay safe so i still use it

you been waitin for some years, but everything is fake // its like a rear-view mirror, nothin is as it appears

CODE

i dont clap the four fifth? // if you believe that then youd believe Rick James died of natural causes

CODE

battling? thats a small thing // im like a christmas tree i just stand there and let my balls hang

CODE

point blank when hammers is out // i'll have it right up on ya skin just like the plastic on ya grandma's couch

CODE

if we beefin get smacked // dumb ninjas point burners at these DVDs like they beefin with smack

CODE

dudes tryna f**k you like incest // while you search like credit cards for who got your best interests

CODE

i ain't worried bout this or that droppin // cause dudes is fallin off, they like big mac toppings

CODE

these rappers is like tysons team // they cant tell its time to retire that mic

do you want more? i would have postefd more but i can't have that many quotes in a post joe budden has been killing it lately, 3 Sides to a Story might be the best storytelling song ever, i can't wait for mood music 2.

[AngryBaby]

currently!??? dmx died dude....(he only released a few albums btw)

what the hell

[jEllyBeaNs]

hahahaha wut?? DMX dead? oo wow! but i would have to say...eminem and Kanye weSt :]

ever heard tibetan black magicians?
call that a weak beat.

[vash1530]

btw i try not even to think of the em's career has gone down... kanye is pretty good, but completely overrated
o and if any1 likes totally raw frees def juice is the king.

[*nightmare4taki*]

How could you forget his best line.

Im a grown man, so I ain't got to say no homo// cuz in the Real World most thugs ifs Karamo//

.

Since Im more of a mainstream person rather than underground, at this current time Im rolling with Kanye West.

[Im So Vain]

Mista Fab, Kanye West, Common, Lil Wayne

[fameONE]

i would have postefd more but i can't have that many quotes in a post joe budden has been killing it lately, 3 Sides to a Story might be the best storytelling song ever, i can't wait for mood music 2.

Some of those one-liners are clever but for the most part, you posted a lot of mediocre metaphors to prove your point. Just because you know his music, doesn't make him any better than what he is. Ever heard of Big L? Joe Budden to Big L is like Ja Rule to 2pac. Better yet, since L is dead, why don't you cop some Papoose.

God sent me as scientist to cure AIDS and take it off the earth's mug, but they aborted me now he sent me back as a thug

A one liner is nothing without meaning behind it.

Gang violence killed my fam about 10 years back
Disregard for human life just to sell some crack
But drive-bys are still around, and thats a known fact
Don't believe me? Then try walkin' through Iraq
Unlike other colors, we have a salary cap
So when your pockets get fat, expect to get capped
Or invest in gats, straps and click-clacks
From a Russian cat free of tax

Again, metaphors and clever rhymes don't mean shit if they have no meaning. All those Joe Budden quotes are just party lines. Still not impressed.

Its understandable that Joe Budden isn't a mainstream sensation. Most lyrical artists aren't (which is unfortunate), but why has he lost his underground influence? Hiphop heads in the northeast that are wise to the mixtape game just aren't feelin Joe Budden. I got a few of his mixtapes right before he made it big and had his 15 minutes of fame; he was ok; nothing great; certainly not enough for me to waste my time researching and quoting his lackluster rhymes on an internet forum.

[Levy2k6]

man they ain't no current "sick" rapper.. they all suck..

i stop listening to rap like years ago... they all started sucking... i listen to late 80s to late 90s rap but thats bout it.. those were some good times then.

[fameONE]

^You don't know much about hiphop.

[*chaneun*]

when i saw "xhibit" on the list, i thought it said "xquizit"

[fameONE]

Its sad how Xzibit has fallen from lyrical grace. He seems a long ways a way from dropping another track like Paparrazzi

[*nightmare4taki*]

Joe Budden did make some meaningful song a while back that was similar to Common's Testify. I never heard the song, but from the lyrics the song looks promising.

Right now, I think Young Jeezy has the streets talking. His CD sounded good IMO, the experience was even furthered by my cousin's ample sound system.

I don't think you really listen to Joe Budden. Joe Budden is to Big L what Eminem is to Kangsta. Ok, maybe I gone too far. Conscious songs? Real Life and Rap, Sing For The Moment, So Long Goodbye, Dumb Out, more. Storytelling? 3 Sides to a Story, Calm Down, Only You, I Want You Back, more.

no names should be mentioned with mine
unless you talkin' Big Pun in his prime
maybe '96 Jay before Dame was throwin' money around
or 2Pac without Humpty around
or 50 before Em, Nas talkin' like a gun in a song
cam'Ron during Children of the Corn
beans before the cops came through and tried to grill him
im talkin' '95 Big L before they killed him
em before 8 Mile, Shyne before the jail shit
canibus no album out, before the L shit
talkin' about Kiss, DMX when he was f**kin' with coke
or Cuban Linx - Raekwon and Ghost
i do it All, who blend in so well in the game,
talkin Fab back when he was still spellin' his name, MAYNE
on my diddy shit, Memphis, Grizzly shit
like back in the day when Clue swiped all of Biggie's shit
rappers don't need trouble with I
unless it's Ras Kass before the D-W-I
or Talib and Mos, Common before Be
if they any less common don't put 'em before me, SEE
see, I'm not a rapper, I'm a prophet

if hip hop is all smoke and mirrors joe budden is the windex and the napkin. papoose? he has multis and clever punches at times, but his flow is like a pass from sebastian telfair - only on point half of the time. plus his voice and deliver i cant stand. as joe budden said, his style reminds me of spinning rims, that shit got palyed out real quick.

saigon? i wont front saigon is ILL. i think joe budden is better though, saigon is not consistent at all, and he needs more work to be put out. i think joe budden and fabolous are the two most consistent on the mixtape scene.

researching and quoting his rhymes? all i did was listen to the first five tracks on Mood Muzik volume one. Underground influence? Joe Budden is the most highly anticipated artists and has a huge fanbase. Dumbout Season Vol. 1 and Mood Muzik vol. 2 are currently the two most anticipated mixtapes. Joe Budden maintains a relationship with his fans unparrelled with any artist - he posts on boxden, joebudden.com, and allhiphop.com.

Download these tracks - 3 Sides to a Story, So Long Goodbye, Calm Down, NBA freestyle and then get back at me. For now I'll leave you with this Joe Budden lyric.

i'm stuck between platinum and flop, underground and mainstream
conscious, backpack, scratch that, same thing
i'm somewhere between the real and the fakeness
the red pill, blue pill, real or the Matrix
and I can't take this
if the game needs a new look, i'm between the tummy-tuck and the facelift
and everything I say in these pages
is straight from the heart, nah magazines, y'all can't rate this
'cause I'll be debatin', it's a bit outrageous
like it's an ear virus, and the shits contagious
i'm downloadin' like, niggas actually play this ?!??
maybe I'm buggin' out, maybe I'm on the spaceship

Don't put niggas in the same sync as me
I mean metaphors, punch lines, deep shit
Club shit, girl shit, World shit
They don't use the ink like me
Niggas don't even think like me !!

* the three quotes i quoted were all from the track "Dumb Out".

[vash1530]

ive never even considered joe budden in my top 25
it sounds like hes rhymin its not sayin anything.

[MrElsewhere]

Technique should definitely be up there, but i don't think jason listens to that much underground.

I say Nas.

[EddieV]

I would have to say Eminem. His raps get pretty deep. I don't really see though how 50 Cent is a good rapper.

[vash1530]

^no one does

[fameONE]

^no one does

Prior to the shooting, but after his stabbing, 50 released an independent album called Power of the Dollar. It was tight. Buuuuut, fame kicked his ass and he now releases songs like Candy Shop.

Mike Jones is another one. But Mike Jones sold out so bad that he's an embarrassment to Houston.

[vash1530]

the only compliment i can give 50 is he can be funny but its pretty rare.

[yo pusha]

50 is a great businessman who knows how to market himself and sell records. he can also make catchy hooks over the most complex beats. but he still is horrible lyrically but i dont think the people who buy his album really care.

[*nightmare4taki*]

^ I still got that window shopper in my head.

Ja you's a window shopper
Mad at me, I think I know why
Jada you's a window shopper
In the jewelery store, looking at shit you can't buy
Joe you's a window shopper
In the dealership, trying get a test drive
Nas you's a window shopper
Mad as f*ck when you see me ride by
