Pac...
In the event of my demise
when my heart can be no more
i hope i die for a principle
or a belief that i had lived for
i will die before my time
because i feel the shadow's depth
so much i wanted to accomplish
before i reached my death
i have come to grips with the possible
and wiped the last tear from my eyes
I loved all who were positive
in the end of my demise

[fgfgfgrfg]

Pharoahe Monch

"Very contagious raps should be trapped in cages
Through stages of wackness, Pharoahe's raps are blazin
And it amazes - me how you claim thug
but go two-ways without SkyTel pagers
I'm intellectual, pass more essays
than motorcade police parades through East L.A.
More beef then deli's, thus what I vent is just
What you lust to vent is irrele'
Huh, hallelujah, Pharoahe Monch'll do ya
Maintain the same frame of mind - screw ya!
Get the picture, sit ya, seat ya, preacher with scriptures
I'm equipped to rip ya, reach ya
Pharoahe and Mos is verbal osmosis
Coast to coast, we boast to be the most explosive here
Ferocious, the lyrical prognosis
The dosage is leavin you mentally unfocused here
MC's just - come on 'round
You're the next contestants on "Catch-A-Beat-Down"
Don't be hesitant, sound cracks the sediment
It's evident we medicine for your whole town
Sky's the limit, game's infinite when I'm in it
All windows is tinted, how you seein me when I'm in it?
Rap, we got it on lock man, stop that
Put that mic back down, boy, drop that
Pharoahe's flows blows shows like afros"

I don't know but that verse is amazing

[*SinfullySweet*]

Tupac. No questions.

[AngryBaby]

Tupac
Tech N9ne
Eminem
immortal technique

even though em spit one of the best freestyles ive ever heard.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=5VfRxdDfFiI

not really that crazy about biggie, sorry.

[DarkImpressions]

I like Yung Joc,Even though he is sorta new.

[*steve330*]

Definitely not Lupe Fiasco

[EmoEyelinerx]

Rap sucks.

[popoberry]

oh my gawd are u guys serious?!?!!!? no one ever mentioned NAS . he's d0pe !

[*superstitious*]

I don't think I can single out one particular "best rapper", but two groups that I think have had a great deal of impact on the rap and hip hop genre are De La Soul and Public Enemy. There was a purity to their sound and their lyrics. They strived for the profound, while having some fun (this is particularly true of De La Soul).

[xKatt]

who is b.i.g.? oh well, i dont even like rap although the best rap-like song is ms jackson by outkast

I'm sorry Ms. Jackson! OOOH I AM FOR REAAAAAL. Omg I love that song.

Ummm.. well I'm madly in love with Immortal Technique.

Tupac as well.

Most of the stuff I hear now lacks severely in good lyrics. They're catchy and I like them, but lyrics matter a lot to me.

[illriginal]

B.I.G

Maybe in the mainstream world yes. I could say Jurassic 5 is better than B.I.G. but that wouldn't hold water, because that's comparing apples with oranges. Just two whole different worlds.

There's no such thing as the best rapper... it's impossible. Too many different styles.

Rap sucks.

No offense, but if that's what Tokio Hotel looks like... I can only imagine they sound like high-pitched women and their only fans are a bunch of former backstreet and NSYNC fans at which consist of lil middle school children.

Just sayin.

[JerzDevil]

Rap sucks.

if you think it sucks you don't have to tell that by posting here ass ... keep it to yourself. and whoever said joc in this thread is a joke LMFAO .. this ain't a thread "who's the best rapper right now" .. although joc would still never be mentioned in that category as well .. this is "BEST RAPPER THAT EVER LIVED" ... and joc? get outta here to whoever said that ......

BEST RAPPER THAT EVER LIVED = TUPAC. this is a no-brainer ..

[*Sandraaa*]

Rap sucks.

LMFAO! Because guys dressing like girls are better? Because a band called 'Tokio Hotel' is better? Because that ugly looking piece of shit in your signature sounds better? I'd rather listen to Sanjaya all day long than that ludacris piece of wack called 'Tokio Hotel'.

Spare me your crap please.

Sadly I even wasted my time to download a few of their songs... I can't believe she even had the audacity to disrespected hip hop (then again she could diss 50 cent and akon or whatever, I dont care).

I love Tokio Hotel. They are my favorite band. Their music videos are awesome and they never swear in them. Thats very uncommon especially with all the artists today. Bill (the lead singer) is the hottest guy I have ever seen. I love his make-up and hair he does it pratcially perfectly. He also has great style. Bill is not a homosexual. He clearley started that in an interview he did.

Barf.

[*Sandraaa*]

*hisses* Ridiculous, really. 'Rap sucks'? Even 50 cent sounds WAY better than that drag queen!

[popoberry]

f**k whoever says rap sucks . they really don`t know the true meaning of it . yeah nowadays 'rap' may sound so gay about like sex, money, shit shit shit whatever ! but rap is a way of them to express themselves unless they`re dumbshits ahahahah

If it has anything to do with the beaten to oblivion topics, such as; drugs, money, hoes, sex, cars, houses, prison, and thugs... I hate it, it's useless, and I hope the artists who keep spittin shit about the same topics over and over catch a mutating virus that will kill them slowly but surely.

oh yeah i totally agree . i mean THAT kind of rap is annoying and i don`t even think of it as rap cuhz they ruined it .

[no-name]

Eh...rap is okay.
It doesn't suck really it is just that the mainstream crap played on the radio nowadays sucks.
I don't like rap too much.
There is probably some good rappers out there but i am too lazy to find out

[mysticalazxn]

lil wayne i like the way he rap.

[pandamonium]

i think i am. during christmas i wrap presents really good. and i wrap a lot so i have had a lot of practice.

Those of you that can and want to...

Download The Following Song: Lil Wayne-Something You Forgot.

Here is a piece.

Pain, since I've lost you, I'm lost too
Nigga feelin' like he at the bottom like a horse shoe
Sorry for the trouble that I put you and your heart through
God knows that I'd do anything for a part two, or to
be prayin' for the day you come back to me, sayin' that you forgive me
Give me another chance, I'm needin' it like a kidney
I don't wanna advance, give me back her hands
Give me back her touch, I don't ask for much
but I f**ked up, I know I f**ked up, I admit I f**ked up
but everybody f**k up, now this other nigga lucked up
Tellin' me and my clique don't give a f**k
Cause um, we from New Orleans, she was from Georgia
She was my down chick, I was her soldier
I was her gangsta, she was my shoulder
You were the pistol to my holster .. BANG!

You forgot about the house, you forgot about the ring
I remember everything, I just wanna hear you sing
I remember the love, right after the fights
You can't tell me you don't remember those nights
and if I would cry, then you would cry twice
To me you are the brightest star under sunlight

See take away my title, take away my stripes
You give me back my girl and you give me back my life
Give me back my girl and you give me back my life
See this is just a nightmare, so I blink twice
Open up my eyes hopin' she'd be in my sight
I remember the time, I wish I could bring it back
What she mean to me, is what I mean to rap (what I mean to rap).

Ehh im not really into rap but; This song is ILL.

Lil Wayne doesn't make any sense to me and his level of education is worse than my lil cousin's.

But if you like him, that's you

[*chaneun*]

jason kangsta, you gotta represent dawg

[YourSuperior]

I would have to say I think it's either Mac Drè, Lil Wayne or Tupac.

[illriginal]

Really? Where do you get the idea that he's not smart? The kid has been killing it since he was 15.

Have you heard him freestyle??!!

Sorry... but his vocabulary alone is too weak for my ears. He's a lil 160 pound guy who thinks he's bad ass, who's livin off of loans. If his music career dies out, that big ol' mansion he owns, and the cars he owns, go BUH BYE.


You want real skills? Shit that makes you think hardcore about reality of life? Well it ain't on the radio or television, that's for damn sure.

Lil' Wayne just bores me, that's all

Here... listen to this crappy freestyle, this is maybe the worst freestyle I heard from one of my favorite groups in hip hop.

Like i said rap is alright, i mean its inevitable now a days but i never said i liked him i said i liked that song.

plus, what does level of education have to do with the way he raps??

QFT!

Some great tracks listed there. I can't really decide on a GOAT because there's so many different things to take into consideration. What one rapper lacks, another has, and vice versa.

I know this is a dumb question, but what's QFT? Ever since LOL was created, we have all these weird acronyms.

JayZ~
Kanye is okay too

[dustbunny]

i think i am. during christmas i wrap presents really good. and i wrap a lot so i have had a lot of practice.

LOLOLOLOLOOLLLLLl okay i guess to answer the question..i have no preference, but there are a couple rappers out there that just make no sense, such as the previously mentioned JOC. [I MEAN WTH FORREALssSSS]

[xxpimpjuice1227x]

oh my gawd are u guys serious?!?!!!? no one ever mentioned NAS

Yes, me too.

for me it will have to be Tupac,Common,Talib Kweli, Nas,Hieroglyphics,Pharrell, and some real hip hop underground.

For those who said rap suck, it dosen't. G-Unit, Lil Wayne, killed hip hop. Ever wonder why some people say "hip hop is dead, well some are underground."

[Relentless]

Tupac FTW.

[MrStrife]

Hands down, Tupac Amaru Shakur.

Biggie is the best ever.

Lil' Wayne is the best now

Yeah all of the aforementioned are 10 times better than Lupe Fiasco, IMHO.

Kanye West ft. Lupe Fiasco - <3.

[dispn0ygonekrazy]

i know this guy named KC, he hella good.

[HoodNigga]

i know this guy named KC, he hella good.

Chyeaaaaaaaaaaaa, Ayeeeeeeeee, lets get it

Its really hard for me to say who is the best rapper, I really liked Pac and Big but they are both overrated to a certain extent.

But here is my bias opinion.

I like TI, Ludacris, Mos Def, Common, Kanye West , Joe Budden, Lupe Fiasco , Pac, Eminem, and 50 cent the most. But as far as the best, it would be hard for me to say since there are rappers out there I haven't even discovered yet.
