Favorite Rapper?

[Thrice4Life]

Fun Stuff!

[Zippedychick]

I don't like rap. But if I had to choose it would be eminem because his stuff can be pretty funny. Sometimes.

[Thrice4Life]

Oh BTW please specify other.

[briewer]

Hova.

[IceAge/HeatWave]

kanye and lupe fiasco.

[porttheman]

Common or Mos Def

[dumhed01]

Pos.

[Say Nothing]

Jay Z and Eminem are the top 2 imo

[E. Clectic]

I'm not a big fan of rap or hip hop but I really like P.O.S.

[kbi the crowing]

Hilltop Hoods or Lupe Fiasco
I cannot choooosel

[SpyKi]

Eminem is one of my favourite artists of all time. I'm not really a big fan of any other rap.

[MADSTA]

Lupe
More recently, P.O.S. and Kid Cudi

[Thrice4Life]

Man no love for RATM?

[Thrice4Life]

kanye and lupe fiasco.

Kanye sucks......

[IceAge/HeatWave]

Kanye sucks......

not college dropout, late registration and most of graduation kanye. 808s kanye doesn't really suck either, it's just really experimental and isn't what i want from kanye.

college dropout and late registration are absolutely phenomenal hip-hop albums. have you listened to them?

I hate him as a person. And 808's is a piece of shit. But some of his rhymes are good.

[Poe-tryGirl]

I'm not a huge fan of rap, but I do like Kanye, Lupe, and Gym Class Heroes.

[IceAge/HeatWave]

i won't debate hating him as a person, because i can see how one would come to that opinion. i won't debate 808s, because i can see where that comes from as well. but the name of this poll is "favorite rapper?", not "which rapper is a good person?"

He thinks he is better than jesus.

[IceAge/HeatWave]

He thinks he is better than jesus.

so did john lennon. but most people don't (still) hate him for it.

[NateFoundGlory]

Ludacris has always been a favorite of mine, followed closely by Common, Lupe Fiasco and Jay-Z.

[Thrice4Life]

so did john lennon. but most people don't (still) hate him for it.

Didn't know that but I dont care much for him.

[loganmmm]

Other: Kanye, T.I., POS, Mac Lethal.

[IceAge/HeatWave]

Didn't know that but I dont care much for him.

its weird. i was looking through your favorite bands and albums, and we share a lot of them. but then out here in the forums, you dislike two of my favorite musicians haha it's all good though.

[Thrice4Life]

Lol it happens, I think john lennon had some great music. Its just not my favorite.

[zac_montucky]

I vote P.O.S. Two very good records, a phenomenal third, a spectacular live performer, and an all-around great dude in person. Sounds like a winner to me.

[MADSTA]

Other: Kanye, T.I., POS, Mac Lethal.
Him too.

[blue_bedlight]

Aesop Rock.

[lonelysuperstar]

Other: Playdough

[Paulb-182]

Eminem.

[Indoor Living]

Lupe
More recently, P.O.S. and Kid Cudi
This is a good answer.

[MADSTA]

This is a good answer.
You are a good person.

[Indoor Living]

You are a good person.
Your avatar is from Glee if I'm not mistaken. You're a winner.

[MADSTA]

Your avatar is from Glee if I'm not mistaken. You're a winner.
YES.
Let's be friends?

[Indoor Living]

YES.
Let's be friends?
Let's. Such a great show.

[God damner]

Sage francis and De la soul.

[artyinthebank]

Insane Clown Posse.

[fourletterword]

surprised no 2pac or biggie mentions yet

[kbi the crowing]

Aesop Rock.

I've listened to None Shall Pass and it was ok but I like his style
what album would you recommend?

[SuNDaYSTaR]

K-Os.

[blue_bedlight]

I've listened to None Shall Pass and it was ok but I like his style
what album would you recommend?
Float, Labor Days, & Appleseed EP. I loved None Shall Pass but I don't think anything can touch Float. If you end up enjoying Aesop, check out Rob Sonic as well. Both of his albums are good, but I prefer Telicatessen.

alright cool, thanks dude

[IAmLegend7]

Eminem as my vote, but I would also go with Hova.

If only Big L, Tupac, and Biggie were still alive...

[patrickhowell]

Other: Consequence (http://www.myspace.com/cons)

Talib Kweli deserves a mention too.

[blue_bedlight]

alright cool, thanks dude
Yea no problem. I enjoy spreading good music around.

[kbi the crowing]

Other: Consequence (http://www.myspace.com/cons)

Talib Kweli deserves a mention too.

yessir
although I feel like nothing he'll release will live up to Quality or the Black Star record
hopefully I'm wrong though

[zachff]

i said zack de la rocha. because he's not a rapper

[Cøltøn]

Em. Like me some P.O.S. and Sage Francis every once in a while too.

[MattDennis]

Nasty Nas the villian.

[AussieBoy]

jay-z... zach goes good

fan of Scribe from NZ

and Mike Shinoda was good as Fort Minor

[all time (joe)]

fittee cent brah

[pr0digy]

POS
Lupe Fiasco
Kid Cudi


All better than any of those options

[bNz719]

Mike Shinoda was good as Fort Minor


Agreed.
The Rising Tied is a great album.
All time favorite rapper would have to be Immortal Technique tho.

[abandonship]

Eminem, but I haven't really explored the rap genre.

[jay_klinkhammer]

Jay Z or Kanye

[WhoSaidThat?]

Eminem.

[inthemidst]

Common or Mos Def

^^^ Love me some good hip-hop.

I would have to include The Roots, even though they're a band, and not one rapper.

[Thrice4Life]

i said zack de la rocha. because he's not a rapper

What is he then?

[porttheman]

^^^ Love me some good hip-hop.

yea man they are pretty sweet. Ive never really listened to the roots before. I might have to check em out.

[Brokenhill]

Probably GZA, but I haven't heard enough HP/R yet...

[FabiLBLAHblah]

Atmosphere.

[smogs]

Other: Slug, Common, Mos Def, and Talib Kweli. I think Slug is my favorite out of those, but it just depends on my mood.

[princesschad]

the notorious b.i.g

[inthemidst]

yea man they are pretty sweet. Ive never really listened to the roots before. I might have to check em out.


Yeah, definitely do. I'd say it's kind of like Gym Class Heroes, but better and more creative.

I freaking love Common right now, though.

[bladerdude360]

Right now I have to say P.O.S., but I'm a fan and listen to most of the rappers listed. Kind of surprised Kanye or Andre 3000, along with others, aren't mentioned.

[Sarcasm]

Marshall Mathers. He's the best.

[ManicanParty49]

Jigga Man.

[yellowhouse]

Other: Mos Def, MF Doom, Aesop Rock, Lupe Fiasco, Busdriver, Talib Kweli

[Kevin Lazaroff]

Where is Tupac, Biggie, Nas, etc.???????????

[riseagainstfan]

Tupac, P.O.S, and Atmosphere

[muttley]

Luda.

[bagdad]

favorite all time: 2pac
favorite current: slug from atmosphere & felt

[xsinkshipsx]

kanye and lupe fiasco.

legit choices

[Meeze]

K'naan

[BruisedxBroken]

right now it's Mr. Criminal or Mr. Capone-e. But if we're talking in terms of rappers who no longer put shit out, the list could go on forever...

[joey.esposto]

lupe

[Derka Derka]

P.O.S., Kid Cudi, Mos Def and MC Frontalot

[hotdog963al]

Josh Eppard/Weerd Science

[George-Michael]

Very random list.

I picked Jay-Z out of that list because I don't like selecting "other."

[TheZeroKid]

Fuck yeah, Zack De La Rocha, I love RATM

[MyWorldEntire]

Andre 3000 or Big Boi

[Sventhegreat]

You can't put an "other" category. Make people choose out of a set list of people.

[Tristan Needler]

Out of this list, Snoop is the best I believe. Although he has sucked pretty hard recently. Eminem is close.

The obvious answer is of course none of these are the best.

[parawhore10]

surprised no 2pac or biggie mentions yet

i was going to say 2pac

[parawhore10]

Agreed.
The Rising Tied is a great album.
All time favorite rapper would have to be Immortal Technique tho.

I always thought i was the only person who'd heard of Immortal Technique

[bNz719]

I always thought i was the only person who'd heard of Immortal Technique

lol yeah same here
he's not very well known but definitely should be.
standout songs for me are point of no return, the 4th branch, dance with the devil, and you never know.

[parawhore10]

oh yes. dance with the devil is one of my favorite rap songs of all time.

[honestIpod]

Other: Lupe Fiasco Favorite at the moment Kid Cudi

[kbi the crowing]

Josh Eppard/Weerd Science

God Bless Pepsi has some of the best rhymes I've ever heard

[bNz719]

oh yes. dance with the devil is one of my favorite rap songs of all time.

me too.
its one of those songs where i listen to it every once in awhile and get blown away by it.
same with You Never Know.

also nice avatar pic.
couple of amazing songs off their new album

[parawhore10]

yeah the lyrics in that song are some of the best i've ever heard. but i'm more into the rap lyrics that actually mean something. which doesn't happen often these days.

but thank you. mayday parade is one of my favorite bands. :)

yeah, its kind of sad how a majority (if not all) of the rappers that are getting attention are the ones that write (or somebody else writes for them) ridiculously simpleminded and talentless stuff. and what's worse is that people buy into it because it sounds cool rather than what it is.
ok /rant lol

yeah i totally know what you mean. i thought i was the only person in the world that hated the music that lil wayne, kanye, and all the other rappers these days make. it aggravates me how rich they get off the pathetic music they put out when there are other rappers that are better who are barely known.

Yeah exactly! The entire rap scene (for lack of a better word) seems upside down in my eyes. Those that deserve credit and attention don't get it while those that don't deserve it at all do.

yeah it's completely ridiculous. and then people try and criticize me for not liking "weezy." ugh.

[Nick Le]

P.O.S., Jay -Z, Em, and Kanye.

[ThatswhatUget23]

Don't listen to much rap anymore but Nas was my favorite for awhile.

[Samc1803]

POS, Astronautalis, Yoni Wolf/WHY?.

[NateGolubiewski]

Atmosphere.

[Formatfun]

I voted Eminem.

P.O.S., Kid Cudi, Mos Def and MC Frontalot
Finally see some nerdcore. Though I prefer MC Lars. He can cheer me up whenever I listen. Make Way For Ducklings.

[Brandao]

Man no love for RATM?

I'm surprised too.....

I thought that Zach would be winning by a landslide.


Voted for RATM....but i'd also say Common and Atmosphere

[Theseventhson]

Nas, ODB, Ghostface Killah, early Kanye and Jay-Z.

[Derka Derka]

I voted Eminem.

I love nerdcore, it's so funny yet awesome.

[johnrick7]

Del The Funkee Homosapien

[Viva Sonata]

Kanye.

[nerdvglc]

ludacris. he's pretty badass, and he was the first rapper i liked. although, if kanye or t.i. were on the board, i may have gone with them. i hate votng "other" all the time...

[meroki22]

Kanye

[GamEin]

Wheezy.

[BryterJonah]

Looks like everyone forgot about Dre.

My personal vote goes to Flight of the Conchords.

[WhoSaidThat?]

Looks like everyone forgot about Dre.

My personal vote goes to Flight of the Conchords.
I see what you did there.

[Lightsout911X]

Either old Eminem or P.O.S.

I seriously don't get the hype with Lil' Wayne :shrug:

[boomerangslang]

One Be Lo, Nas, or Big Pun.
