Rakim or Biggie I guess.
Although I still feel like Cube and LL deserve a top 5-10 ranking.

BIG was fourth on my list but dude only had 2 albums so no.
Why is Pac #1?
I honestly believe Jay and Nas have passed him and BIG at this point.

1. Dude got 3 classic albums
2. Dude had 2 classic albums in the same year
3. Every album he improved
4. He was just 25 years old with 5 albums
5. He is the face of hip hop
This is highly debateable, but is actually an excellent thread topic on its own.
I dont mind Pac being at #1 since he accomplished at 25 what it took Nas & Jay their 30's through 40's to accomplish.

Like bob marley is the face for reggae my nikka pac the face for rap music. The only person who you can say is the face for rap apart from him is jay-z, other then that I really don't see anybody else taking that from pac.
...that's the argument to be made, though.
When you say "the face of hip-hop", that to me denotes a level of fame and name recognition that transcends racial or age boundaries on an international basis....and they both have that.
It's an interesting debate.
