Best Storytellers In Hip-Hop? Who do you guy's think are some of the best Hip-Hop storytellers?, i know many will say Pac or Biggie & they are good. But there where many great storytellers besides them
Here are my personal favorites (In no certain order)
1. Slick Rick 2. Masta Ace 3. Rakim 4. Ice Cube 5. Melley Mel 6. KRS-1 7. Nas 8. Big Daddy Kane 9. Immortal Technique 10. Chuck D 11. Andre 3000 12. Special Ed 13. Mos Def 14. Kool G Rap 15. Lupe Fiasco 16. Lauryn Hill 17. Ghostface Killah
Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

Some people don't take him seriously, but I'd say The Fresh Prince. I consider solo stuff released as "Will Smith" a different act, as the songs are different than when he was with Jazzy Jeff.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

Off topic but I never liked Dana Dane. Came off like a bootleg Slick Rick. | |

Nice list! Biggie and 2pac were the 2 most overrated MCs of all time, but then again, Hip-Hop pretty much died around 1995... at least when you consider the diversity and skills in both lyrics and production pre-1995.
