Bugsmoran's Opinion. The Real 20 Greatest Emcees of all Time: Unbiased Edition

[FreshAIG]

Camron was dope but his music didnt have an impact on HipHop like the 20 Emcees on my list... Camron's Swagger had more of an impact than his music...

Big Pun's debut album got 4 mics in the Source when it dropped and i agree with that rating.... really good album but not classic. He was a new improved Kool G Rap... Pun didnt do nothing i never heard before, just sped the flow up

Besides multisyllabic rhyming, G Rap and Pun were dramatically different

G Rap was way more about storytelling.

Damn I just knew 40 water was on this lost breh.

Bugsmoran is a SOHH/Coli legend, deserves more respect than this shyt breh.

Interesting list. I couldn't put Lauryn Hill so high given the questions over how much stuff she actually wrote, plus the limited catalog.

can't go wrong with that top 3 tho

He's the Treach of coli legends.

I got mad love for Bugs as a poster. Not even here to argue, just to give props to the homie.

Spoiler

Treach though, fam?

 

[Piff Perkins]

He's the Treach of coli legends.

I'm not gonna lie I did a double take when I saw Treach on the list

*daps*

She writes her own raps.. that was never a question

there was some controversary about her taking production credit and not giving credit to dudes helping write the R&B songs

 

[Wargames]

you put dmx over common?

Treach was ill... Biggie and Pac thought he was a problem on the mic


had a big influence on Eminem...Em spoke on Treach in this

 

[Big Mel]

I smell a jerseyite.

 

[Walt]

I think 2Pac is the most overrated rapper ever btw.

Reason people rank him high

He was extremely popular, probably most popular rapper ever
The controversy he caused
He had a lot of hits

If you break down his catalog of music, it's extremely light on quality material

Better than Redman's corny, caricature, faux-lyrical bum ass.

 

[Poitier]

It was aite til I got to 12 and onward

 

[Dusty Bake Activate]

Can't rock with Lauryn Hill, DMX, and Treach. Pretty good list outside of that imo.

Better than Redman's corny, caricature, faux-lyrical bum ass.

Redman is a God amongst insects.

LOL you always hated Redman

He's one of my all time favorites

 

[Poitier]

Wayne and Ghostface (top 10 rappers) and to a lesser extent, Tip and Prodigy deserve slots. Fukk is you thinking, breh? Lauryn Hill, Treach, 3k, DMX, Redman, Eminem? Atleast put them at the end of the list, but it's your opinion. Salute.
