Talib Kweli is surprisingly good live. At least the 2 shows I seen him in. The first was Blackstar but they were on fire in general back in 1999 but I saw kweli again in '05 and he still shut it down. This is also coming from someone who doesn't own any of his solo albums

Jayz is a top rap performer ever.

Having wild energy/passion on stage doesn’t auto = a great performer. Jay-z is cool and calm up there while still flawlessly flowing and engaging the crowd and rocking the building and sounding almost exactly like the record. And he is known for not wanting the track vocals playing, unlike most of his peers, he only needs the beat playing

DMX's IDAHIH 20th Anniversary Tour was one of, if not THE BEST, hip-hop show I've ever been to.

An incredible performer, a lot of rappers could learn from.

Bruh I saw DMX and hov recently well a few years ago and it might not be fair for X. But Busta is better than both till this day.

I remember I seen dude in 98 and he was rocking the shyt out of the crowd then the nikka started praying and crying. I was 12 like wtf

I still remember that epic performance of him and hov performing Money Cash Hoes

Big Pun was leaning on a loud speaker out of breath.

Busta was legendary.
