Tupac (obviously)
Kendrick Lamar
Wu-Tang Clan
Wiz Khalifa
A$ap Rocky


The top 3 are good choices, although I'm late on Kendrick Lamar and have only listened to his first album, I have his Training Day mixtape in the car ready to spin.

What's your favourite Wu-Tang album? (Can be a solo one or one of their actual albums like 36 chambers)

Pe$os by Rocky was like the only one I like by him. I can tell why people like his other tunes like ****ing Prblm and anything else he's put out but I look for in rappers these days, in the factory line of trap music happening, lyricism and not something that sounds "wavy."

Listen to ALLA. It's the only project that represents his artistry. Listen to his Zane Lowe interview too he's deeper than he lets on.

Cuban Linx is a great album.

Mine would probably be Liquid Swords though.
A couple of you might get a kick (no pun intended) out of this @2.12

Ok. I understand Shystie. But you don't listen to Leshurr or Tinie? :frown:

Ok I might understand Tinie as well. Might be a bit too mainstream and rinsed out for you. But Leshurr's Queen Speech freestyle chronicles that she has out right now are mad. The only thing I don't like about her is that I just found out she's almost 30 but looks, sounds, raps and acts like she's 19 :s-smilie:

Here are the lyrics to the video I put up.

Leshurr? Wow

Listen to what have you done feat. P Money.

Just about the only song of hers I rate.

I've heard bits of her stuff (including that Queen's Speech stuff)

She's ok, nothing special

Just some MC from Birmingham with basic bars who has a squeeky voice.

I mean for what rappers are doing now, she's in their league as far as "bars." For what female rappers in UK is doing, she's at the top. For someone her age, she needs to grow up, indeed. Will I ever spend money on her or attend a show? Never.

Wu Tang - C.R.E.A.M has had me gassed since '04 cuzzz
Biggie Smalls - flow and style are unmatched
Kendrick - most influential
2pac - some of his stuff is ok, but he is inconsistent, going from "respect all women" to "i fkd ur bch, she a hoe"
Lil Wayne - funniest word play
