Who is your top 5 All-time Based on Who you ACtually LISTEN to the most?

[Killa]

I thought the question was who are we bumpin the most now?

OH, that's what he meant?

I thought he meant only all the hip hop figures who are considered GOATs.

Lmao, my bad.

If that's the question then..

1. Freddie Gibbs
2. Young Jeezy
3. Big K.R.I.T.
4. Kanye West
5. Scarface

 

[KILLAKUTT7]

1.2PAC
2.RAKIM
3.NAS
4.GHOSTFACE
5.REDMAN

same as my all time list

honorable mentions: biggie, tragedy khadafi, cormega, styles p, boosie, ransom

 

[OG Talk]

I'd easily put The Notorious B.I.G., Rakim or anybody else but I think that Gibbs is coming up to that type of level.

KRIT too.

And Gibbs in the game since '01.

You're right my bad...


My point even with dudes like K.R.I.T. is how could you have possibly listened to him as much as Rakim when he has a 25 year head start...

If the question was who are you listening to the most, currently then I need to totally re-do my list..

 

[Plexxx]

Jay-Z
Nas
Spitta
Outkast
Soulja Slim


honorable mentions: UGK, Boosie, Styles P, Cam'ron

 

[KILLAKUTT7]

the same as my all-time top 5... why would I put someone in my top 5 whose music I don't enjoy that much? and on the contrary, leave someone out of my top 5 when I listen to their music all the time, all for the sake of "fitting in" and having the usual suspects in my list


but anyway....



1a. Lupe
1b. Budden
3. Jay
4. AZ
5. Nas


honorable mention: Common, Black Thought, Phonte

yea def agree with bolded statement

my honorable mentions: biggie, tragedy khadafi, cormega, styles p, boosie, ransom

 

[Majestic Pape]

Hmmm... my top five most listened to are probably

Nas
DMX
Jay-Z
Mystikal
2Pac

But Ross, 50 Cent, Biggie, Cam'ron, and Big Pun could all be put in there as well.

K.R.I.T. been in the game before '05, Wikipedia is lying. I know he was rapping over Jeezy's beats and more rappers' beats way before '05

[Plexxx]

i was gonna put the no limit camp as #5 but i figured soulja slim, P, Murder, Mac, Mystikal, Young Bleed, and Fiend were too much to classify as 1 person

 

[blackslash]

Since my list might be wrong

Most listened of all time would have to be

1. Jay Z
2, 2Pac(Hate 2pac now, wack ass lyricist)
3.50 cent(hate him now too for the reasons above)
4.Lupe
5.Biggie

 

[notorious8562]

On a pure most listened basis, it would look something like this:

1. Nas
2. OutKast
3. Lupe Fiasco
4. The Notorious B.I.G.
5. The Roots

 

[intilectual recipricol]

How can people be droppin names like Kendrick, Gibbs, J.Cole and Lupe and their all-time lists when they didn't even have music out 5 years ago...Either yall are some young, new to the game rap fans or you misunderstood the question....

Easy. Compare the amount of material out from a nicca like Lu compared to a fat chump like Biggie. Since Lu dwarfs that nicca in total material and time in the game, if you can put Biggie on there then Lupe is easy.

And considerin F&L came out in 2006 aka 6 years ago, i think its safe to say he had music out well longer than 5 years.
