[mistererickk]

Black Thought.

 

[reeceman10]

AZ and Pun.

 

[MajinZuub]

He doesn't even get half the appreciation he deserves.

He's in my personal Top 10.

 

[physicx]

are ras kass and killah priest too underground for this list?

 

[kidjustice19]

I agree with pretty much every artist in this thread... except for em

 

[pdub9]

The Beasties

 

[gas break dip]

I don't care what any of ya'll say!

 

[m16]

I'll agree on E-40. Good pick.

hell no dont spam this thread with overrated trash

i agree, in a sense too....he'll probably never get the props he feels he deserves, lol

 

[harlemtothebronx]

Masta Ace is definitely up there.

 

[Pmighty]

why is black thought so low?
why is big boi on the honorable mention list and not on the main one?
why is bushwick even mentioned?
field mob is also underrated but thats besides the point

 

[illphillip]

Large Professor.

"Breaking Atoms" is damn near a classic. "Friendly Game Of Baseball", "Watch Roger Do His Thing", "Snake Eyes", and ofcourse "Looking At The Front Door".

Ask Pusha-T.

 

[harlem on the rise]

Treach belongs on that list... IMO he's better than all them cats...

AZ?? He's GARBAGE... He doesn't belong on anylist if it doesn't have to do with underacheiving...

Black Thought?? NO way... He deffinetly a proficeint MC, but that's about it... There's really nothing great about him...

Bahamadia is TRASH... I never liked that chick... No charisma...

Killah Preist... Another underacheiver...

I agree with the others... I would've liked to see:
Ras Kass
Treach
Sticky Fingaz
Freddie Foxxx

 

[l silky johnston l]

Bone Thugs N Harmony as a group...man I miss classic rap like that.

 

[the gr8]

AZ
Royce
Crooked
KRS
Big Daddy Kane
Guru

 

[sdfbheat]

 

[cleavland steamer]

AZ
Canibus
Big L

 

[m16]

What y'all know about Lord Tariq though ?

 

[dollaman11]

the old Bun-B...go grab the UGK "super tight" album and yall will agree

 

[dollaman11]
