>>767701829
>>767701998
Both came to mind when I entered this thread...
>>767701774
Nas is fucking garbage.
Illmatic, Distant Relatives and Life is Good are his only good albums.
He's a hypocrite, a liar, and pretty fucking boring, every fucking album is the same "woke nigga" shit, ole hotep ass nigga
The Dynospectrum - S/T 1998 album.
Also, Binary Star - Masters Of The Universe
All the best rappers are Jews.
>>767702212
>Nas is garbage
>has 3 good albums

HAHAHAHAHA FUCK OFF NIGGER
>>767702237
Binary Star is the shit fam
>>767702212
I forgot to mention Cannibal Ox and MF Grimm get slept on hard
>>767702291
Nigga has like 12 albums and 3 are good, you tell me if you would call 1/4 a passing grade.
>>767702399

>>767702593
Right from the start, Iron Galaxy, first song on that album, fucking hooked.
Vordul's solo shit is good too, and Vast worked with literally everyone at some point
I dare any of you to listen to Vast and MF and not fucking love it

>Stillmatic
Nigga said that vaccines were poison and he wasn't being historic.
All he did was do gay jokes in the jay diss, the only really good song was that you're the man song. And those other two albums aren't even as good as NIGGER (untitled) album because before that he was a hypocrite and was still lying
>>767703005
Didn't he beat Eminem at scribble jam?
Luv Is Rage
>>767701774
Fuck all yall.
No one can beat the ultimate duo.
>>767703148
Big Boi's solo albums are better
>>767703120
Ok I'm a super fucking old head, if i had to choose a new rapper that i fuck with it'd probably be lil uzi
>>767701774
>>767703285
(produced by 3stacks)
fuck outa here.
>>767703407
You'd probably like XXXTENTACION, if you listen to Jocelyn Flores and Everyone Dies in their Nightmares you'd probably bump it.
Lil Yachty too, as much of a hater as Joe Budden is even he gives Yachty props sometimes, even though his opinion is pretty garbage tbh
>>767703646
>>767701774
It's fun to drive past white people's houses and blast rap music.
Okay so one misinformed line makes an album wack?! I always thought he was talking about shit like the tuskegee experiments but I guess vaccines makes more sense.
Also, there were a bunch of dope tracks on this album. The intro, REWIND nigga? You seriously thought Rewind was wack? One Mic, Second Childhood?
....okay.
>>767703646
I used to like XXX before he blew up. Not anymore though. Lil Yatchy is horrible, just like most current rappers.
I've been listening to a lot of Atmosphere and Gang Starr lately
White people always lose. Racism isn't something white people need to keep to themselves
>>767704201
uzi's kinda trash too tbh. you're drawing your line between a piece of shit with uzi and a pile of shit with yatchy lmao

>>767704297
Since you guys both seem like old heads how do you feel about that weird cycle in hip hop where old heads (going back to the beginning) are always haters and try to teach new kids to be haters?
Like rap used to be exactly like the Sugar Hill Gang, and then it got a little more fun and dumb, and then gangster rap, and every 5-10 years people drew the line and didn't listen to any rap past that.
Like old heads shit themselves if you mention that Tupac and Biggie aren't that great, because they both said a lot of dumb shit, Biggie's second album was half trash, and people act like Tupac was deep and woke as fuck but he was only like that like a quarter of the time, and he had the same flow and tone in like every song.
>>767704201
yachty was great in his lil boat era. Everything since SS2 has been garbage and I think it's because he's trying too hard to be the fourth migo
>>767704297
Uzi is trash lmao. I'd never listen to Uzi, but if I had to, like gun to head, had to listen to a new rapper I'd go with him. I draw my line of what I consider good at Oxymoron by Schoolboy Q, and then everything just goes to shit
>>767704577
Oxymoron is slept on hard. Probably one of my favorite rap albums of the modern era. The title track is fucking incredible.
>>767704558
Adding on to it
It's like hip hop fashion, right now dudes that dressed in baggy clothes and shit of that era are acting like skinny jeans are stupid and make you a fag, even though their parents thought they were fags for sagging, and their parents thought they were fags for addidas suits and shit
>>767704558
>TFW want to argue that point
>MFW that point is entirely correct
>>767704577
>Uzi is trash lmao. I'd never listen to Uzi
>trash
>never listen to
Right...
Joe Budden felt the same way about Yachty and then he liked him, and then he yelled at Yachty like an angry old fuck for an hour making himself look like a dumbass
>>767704577
>Uzi is trash
>SchoolboyQ is good
Nigger you wot?
>>767704558
Dude its called "Juvenoia" and its well documented.
People will always think the newer generation is worse.
Its documented that at one time people thought the new generation READING BOOKS was bad.
Fucking Vsauce has a whole video on it.
>>767704558
I feel like it's just always going to happen. Rap culture is constantly changing, and I don't think it's gonna stop. My dad listened to A Tribe Called Quest and The Beastie Boyz when I was a kid, and didn't like the rap I liked. I hate the rap my little brother and little sister listen to, but that's just how rap is changing. I wouldn't go out of my way to say tell my sis that I don't like Chance and Cole or tell my little bro that $b is ass.
>>767704795
That's your opinion man. I loved to drive around listening to Habits and Contradictions. I don't really like Uzi's voice, but he has an awesome persona
>>767704887
That sounds interesting as fuck, I'll look that up.
It's just kind of upsetting that it's always "woke" heads that listen to conscious rap are always so intolerant.
>HEY THIS RAPPER RAPS ABOUT TOLERANCE AND NOT BEING A HATER FUCK ALL THESE FAGGY RAPPERS THAT HAVE A PLACE IN THE INDUSTRY BECAUSE NOT EVERYONE LIKES WHAT I LIKE REEEEEE
>>767704919
Rap is having that cycle a lot faster now because new rappers that you could say are good or bad, are starting to break away from the typical standards of how hip hop music is made and a lot more music is being incorporated and flows are changing.
While I'm here being a controversial little bitch boi can we all agree Eminem's last album (at the very least that album) was completely garbage?
It's so bad. I like the song with Beyonce, but that's about it.
Canibus has a few really good songs.
https://youtu.be/vuXrT03lyGo?t=16
>>767705171
Agreed. I really don't like Eminems music, but I'll definitely admit that he is one of the best lyricists of all time, if not the best
>>767705231
Canibus was a legit lyricist, but holy fucking shit, if you guys haven't seen him battle Dizaster...
He was so bad, nigga pulled out a notebook halfway through...
If you have the actual willpower to watch this it'll depress you more than Requiem for a Dream or the end of Click.

>>767705247
I honestly think he's forcing it so hard, he doesn't want to be forgotten, but instead of being really honest like Jay did on 4:44 he decided to act like he has the biggest dick on the yard and tried to be like dad rock and rap god at the same time.
>God-tier rap artists.
Implying rap is God-tier
>>767705652
No one cares anon, go back to the trap threads
While we're on this topic, this is the best rap album of all time IMO
>>767704214
Gang Starr true God tier 90's
How has he not be posted?
>>767705092
I feel like the rapper is only half the battle, and that you really have to consider the producers as part of the equation, especially as you go further right on the timeline.
When the lyricist and producer are generally one and the same, like MF DOOM,or even Dr. Dre, or fuck, even Ludacris, then you've got something really special. That counts.
If you accept this, you can usually find 1-2 songs for every rapper who's named in these "best rappa evah" threads that you like. I'd bet that they're produced by the same person/group. Great example is the Neptunes, if you've never heard of them.
Also, generally there are popular lyricists vs. "woke" lyricists in every generation. What makes one "god tier?" Is it the ability to make you think, or deliver a impactful message? Why is nobody talking about MURS? Is it the ability to get a room full of people jumping and have over 9000 white kids screaming lyrics that they barely understand? Fucking Biggie, JayZ, even Sean Whatthefuck Coombs.
Also, how come Lil Kim is never on here? That chick inserted herself into a culture that was routinely rapping about women are pretty much worthless sluts, and she hung with them.
Anyway, that's my 2c. Fuck it. I'm going to go listen to 1985 for the 20th time this week and bemoan the existence of Swae fucking Lee and Lil Dump.
>>767705840
It's up there. Better than Midnight Marauders?
Some great picks in here but my number one seems to be omitted.
>>767706346
"God tier" means that they stood the test of time. They have to be "woke", excellent lyricists, and have memorable scream as loud as possible when you hear them lyrics. If they lack the woke, they're just generic shallow rappers. If they miss the lyricist part, their rapping skills aren't where they should be. If they miss the ability to have lyrics that make a crowd jump and yell out in unison, then no one will remember them.
Ab-Soul, Ak The Saviour
>>767706615
Hell yeah man. Rest in peace L
>>767706346
Lil Kim was pretty fake tho, she was basically a woman trying to rap like a man, instead of being a rapper who was also a woman like Jean Grey or Lauryn Hill.
Dre, we have to remember, doesn't actually write, and although I love Eazy E he only wrote like his last two albums himself, otherwise it was all Ice Cube.
Murs suffers from what most small rappers suffer from, and that's just being good enough to listen to, but boring to listen to.
God tier is on a case by case basis, some rappers are god tier for some reasons, other for others.
You just have to make your case and try to be objective. It's easier to talk about god tier albums tbh.
I went through entire discographies, met a lot of old rappers, producers, new underground rappers that are like Dumbfoundead level famous, and was immersed in the culture for years, in person, and I know a lot of the history, so you can mention whatever you want, I do know who the Neptunes are, and that kinda makes me feel old now that I think about it, but Pharrell didn't age, so maybe I didn't either, and he's a lot older than me.
>>767706706
I don't think being woke or a lyricist is a necessity tbh, we can look at Tupac and see he's not a lyricist, just found a flow that worked for him, we can look at Biggie and see that he wasn't woke, we can look at ODB and see that he was just a coked out dude that had a sick flow, but that's about it.
>>767706615
One of the best albums of all time tbh, he was taken from us too fucking soon
>>767706453
Super close call, but Madlib and DOOM's collaboration is undefeatable
>>767707375
Another one of my shitty opinions is that WuTang after their second album were pretty bad.
And Method Man never, NEVER, made a good SOLO album, and I've heard them all. He's the only failure from WuTang because I even liked that weird Bobby Digital shit, Domestic Violence is still my shit
>>767707510
Honestly, why haven't any of you at least mentioned Rakim btw?
>>767707510
Since we're posting controversial stuff, I wanna say that Kendrick Lamar lost literally all of his talent and is on a Lil Yachty level rn
These motherfuckers
>>767707661
He's too far up his own ass since TPAB, even though I think DAMN is his best album, he's really forcing it for most of the album, if he had done more songs like DNA and Element I'd love that shit.
But lemme tell you, NOTHING is worse than the following rappers: Hopsin, J. Cole, Lupe Fiasco
As much shit as I talk about Nas, Nas is at least intelligent, those niggas are full of shit, I like Nas when he talks more than when he raps, when he raps he tries to be hard, lies, and if he weren't on such a high horse all the fucking time his hypocrisy would just be whatever.
>>767707098
>>767707399
I like the album point. Every rapper has put out at least one shitty song. I also like your point about trying to be objective. I definitely don't know everything, but I think I know more than the average NEW CHALLENGER APPEARS that will step up and claim a "best rapper of all time."
>>767707399
Sick socks.
If I've gotta pick I guess I'll go with DOOM. I've never met a DOOM album I didn't like, and I guess I agree with Sockfag.
>>767707616
I feel like there's 3, maybe 4 dudes having a semi-contentious conversation about our rap tastes in this thread.
>>767705914
The guys that really took me off mainstream rap were all Gangstarr fans. Same guys that made me listen to Benefit though...
>>767708189
It's hard to be objective, so I think you really need to talk to people who don't like whoever you like, and if you can get them to see any merit, even if they don't like that person, then that's a plus.
There's never gonna be a rapper everyone likes, but there are rappers we can agree are good even if we don't like them, or like them very much at least.
The only reason I fight Nas so much is because I listened through his whole discography as a kid (up to Life is Good) and I actually was like wow, he's so woke or whatever, he's rapping about something, but rapping about something doesn't mean you're good, doesn't mean you're right, doesn't even mean you understand what you're rapping about.
That's why I hate Hopsin, J. Cole and Lupe
Here's the gist of why
Nas and Will.I.Am (on Street Livin): shit is fucked up, institutionally you are fucked if you are poor or a minority, here's the objective situation, I know it's hard, but you have to overcome it
Them: wow you don't overcome it just because you want to be cool and a thug, women are just hoes and black people are just stupid because of the rap music that is popular PLZ BUY MY ALBUM IM WOKE
Like half of the time they don't even know wtf they're talking about.
Will.I.Am says "
I understand what's a nigga to choose?
Be the killer or be the dead dude in the news
I get it, what's a nigga to do?
No education in the hood got a nigga confused"
J. Cole and them just say it's your choice and you're just being stupid, they don't live in the fucking real world, they don't understand real life and just say dumb shit.
>>767708637
I'm used to nobody liking my taste in music, but I at least know why I don't like things and why I do like things, and we're all learning at least. That's what hip hop is about, the collective conscious and understanding of each other as hooman beans
souls of mischief - 93 til'
>>767707965
Cole, Russ and Hopsin are the absolute worst bottom of the garbage can, miles below the SoundCloud rappers
>>767708189
Sockfag checking in, J Cole and Hopsin are the worst rappers of all time
>>767708955
>It's hard to be objective, so I think you really need to talk to people who don't like whoever you like, and if you can get them to see any merit, even if they don't like that person, then that's a plus.
>There's never gonna be a rapper everyone likes, but there are rappers we can agree are good even if we don't like them, or like them very much at least.
A quick example of this is when i talk about Takeover vs Ether
Ether is brilliant in its structure, it has 8 lines of semi-relevant filler that sounds good in the first two verses and then about 4 of relevant shit at the end, because that's all you remember, and then for the third verse once you're hyped he doubles down on the relevancy. but maintains the same gay jokes and random diss shit that is pretty weak, but he set up the energy for it. Who cares if
Jay Z was getting chased through a building when Nas literally lies about the tech on his dresser
>i showed your first tech on tour with large professor, then i heard your song about the tech on the dresser
>yeah i sampled your voice you was using it wrong, you made it a hot line, i made it a hot song
Jay comes with relevant shit, things he's been accused of and actually exposes Nas, especially in the song Blueprint 2
>Cause the nigga wear a coofie, it don't mean that he bright
>Cause you don't understand him, it don't mean that he nice
>It just means you don't understand all the bullshit that he write
>Is it "Oochie Wally Wally" or is it "One Mic"?
>Is it "Black Girl Lost" or shorty owe you for ice?
>>767709574
Going back to Ether and Takeover though, Nas clowns on Jay for Hawaiin Sophie Fame or whatever, like so? He was in a silly video being silly, nigga was working with Big Daddy Kane and Jaz-O, who cares?
Especially when Jay brings up actual album quality and shit that you could legitimately call clever instead of "I rock hoes you rock fellas" and "big dick suckin lips" Jay comes with:
>Use your, brain! You said you been in this ten
>I've been in it five, smarten up Nas
>Four albums in ten years nigga? I could divide
>That's one every let's say two, two of them shits was due
>One was, no! The other was "Illmatic"
>That's a one hot album every ten year average
>>767709073
>>767709209
Especially fucking J. Cole and Hopsin who literally just try to recycle their fame by doing more Ill Mind songs and having no features for the literal meme factor of it, as if it fucking matters
RZA
>>767709655
Fun fact from my culture days, everyone that met him or know people that met him say he's literally insane, and if you mention it he'll fight you.
Same with Bambaataa, but he's crazy in the sense he talks about the cosmos and other random woke shit, but he's also a pedo so idk what to think now.
>>767709746
ALSO i knew a dude who was gonna be on the same sampler that the Black Eyed Peas got famous off of from Sony, but his group was late in production and didn't submit in time, but he knew Will.I.Am. and you can confirm this anywhere now, he was a fucking beast before he decided to go pop, although i like his pop style and experiments, his freestyling was insane, and he was battling KRS One and some other dudes at sundance a few months ago
i think fergie is finally out, and will says he wants to do more songs like this because he's already kind of sick of being pop and wants to explore more
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1EC8lBwroOc

i would be honored to fight rza. danny brown is pretty interesting
>>767710273
i like danny brown, have you heard his song with
Freddie Gibs?

Necro, but his real talents is producing. First song is his, the other two are songs he contributed samples and beats to.

>>767710411
I fucking love Necro, Sexorcist is what really drew me in, and his whole catalogue is fucking fascinating, him and his brother and his brother's group and his producing, i even saw the porno he directed, that nigga was in a metal band when he was fucking 11, and he always does some crazy good production, his work ethic is unrivaled by most, he even lived his dream and made an album with Kool G Rap
and while i'm here being a gay ass millennial writing essays, what do you guys think of this Jaden Smith song?

>>767710686
wack fuckin kids are stupid
>>767710917
Remember that time some dude tried to fight him in a metal concert and he fucked him up and he tried to sue Necro for fucking him up?
So as I was looking up Necro's incident in Perth I realized... they let Necro into the country, but not Snoop Dogg, because Snoop Dogg is dangerous... because of his music... I don't wanna say racism, but Necro has caused fucking riots before, literal riots.

Yeah, he's not a very good rapper, unfortunately i do like him, that's really the only song i'd ever try showing anyone
>>767711595
oh yeah what year was it? post '95 it is weak as shit so fuck your shit
>>767712419

Imagine fucking Death Grips but on ketamine naked and running through the streets raping dead fetuses outside of the local abortion clinic. Clipping is the future of rap and even though this album is old enough to be the sexy body of your fucking grandmother it goes harder than and ODing cocaine addict.
>>767712543
it was Necro, he produces all of his own albums, has his own label, and produced dozens of albums alone, if anything, he's at least a greet producer, but he's definitely past his prime now
