All 5 of the aformentioned rappers were at the top of their game when they first came out but later down in their career both their lyrical skills and ability to make good music deminished.
So my question is who fell off the hardest?
For me its a tie between X & P, Dmx's first 2 albums could be seen as hip-hop classics and Prodigy has The Infamous & Hell On Earth along with a great solo effort in H.N.I.C. Dmx for me was one of the realest dudes when he dropped, son just brought that raw, unadulterated hip-hop but then at the same time made club bangers like Party Up and emotional tracks like Slippin, I mean X was one of the most well-rounded rappers during his era even more so than Nas at the time, then right after And Then There was X son just fell off like crazy. Great Depression had some bangers don't get me wrong [Who We Be is a top 10 X joint] but that was a huge disappointment compared to his previously released albums. With Prodigy aww man you don't even have to go in-depth just listen to his raps on The Infamous compared to now, son literally went from spitting hip-hop quotables to straight garbage raps.
Em - his skills seem to still be there but its like that passion is lost, duke is a top 10 lyricist putting out half-assed albums.
Cam - as much as Dipstans try to hide the fact-- Cam fell off after CHWM, Purple Haze was cool but nothing on the level of Confessions or CHWM.
LL - Real Talk Ill Bomb was the last hot record LL made and that was back in 2000. Half his catalog is greatness and the other half is subpar sh..
