Best rapper in history?

Hey guys!

I was wondering what you guys in the org think of rap and who you think is the best rapper in history?
In my opinion it's really hard to just say one, but my favourite rappers are; Tupac, BIG, Talib Kweli & Dr Dre.
Ask me tomorrow and I'll probably say someone else razz

Anyways, who is the best? biggrin

Take Care,

That entire "I Cram to Understand U" is proof enough she deserves the accolades.

Some of my favorites are Rakim, 2Pac, Nas, Biggie, Jay-Z, Cormega, AZ, Will Smith (yes I said it, and I stand by it cool )and Ludacris just to name a few.

But as far as the best, that question will never be answered, there are too many variables. Depending on how you set the parameters, your list will keep changing.
