He’s definitely one of the most important, a lot of rappers wouldn’t exist without him.
LL Cool J says that he is the most important rapper in Hip Hop history

Possibly, but I have Rakim over him in terms of influence.

His longevity is unmatched, but NO.
I'll put Snoop (commercial reasons) or Rakim (artistic reasons) above him, just to name a few.

Havent voted yet, LL definitely is one of the most important building blocks of hip hop, though
but here is a rough fact check of the comments
but here is a rough fact check of the comments
T La Rock technically was 1st Def Jam artist
Whodini technically popularized Love potion hip hop 1st with "One Love"
The late Kangol Kid technically had endorsement deal with the hat maker 1st.
I believe Run DMC endorsement deal with Adidas was before LL's Troop or Van Grack deal

He’s not lying. LL Cool J was your favorite MC’s favorite MC in the late 80s and had a run into the late 90s and then became a household name.
And he might’ve been the first NY MC to establish West Coast ties.

Why would Snoop's commercial success make him the most important in your view?

And I love Rakim.
That's cool, I'm just saying LL wasn't the universal be-all/end-all as he's portraying himself. That's one of the reasons a lot of us didn't fukk with him while a lot, did.....
