1. rakim – it took me YEARS to fully understand and digest the lyrics in “follow the leader”. now that's ill. keep in mind i grew up in hawaii surrounded by a bunch of pineapple fields, so maybe now you can see why that song flipped my world upside down.
2. big daddy kane – the wrath of kane is a pure text book example of what an emcee is or should be imo
3. milk d – completely under rated. how many rappers can write lines that don't rhyme and still sound dope? never dated has got to be one of the most slept on albums of all time. not to mention “top billin” has got to be one of the most sampled hip hop records ever. another great example of what it is to be an emcee.
4. pharoah monche – no commentary needed
5. nas – forget about his last album and listen to his first. illmatic's enough to put his name down in the books forever. i still listen to that album on an almost daily basis.

honorary mention and where are they now goes out to natural elements

never in my top 5
1. ice t – talkin loud and sayin nothin
2. pac – i will say that he was consistent and his records did stand the test of time, but also always felt that it was always image over actual skill.
3. jay z – never liked him from back in the “hawaiian sophie” days til now. he never had that rewind button appeal to me. if anything it was always fast forward.
4. kanye west – a good producer, yes, but as far as a rapper i never liked him, either. i really tried to like him, but the more i listen to his lyrics the more i dislike him. in fact, it's gotten to a point that just the sound of his voice grates me haha just my honest opinion don't get mad
5. the game – listen to the acapella versions of his best songs. you won't be able to sit through a whole song i guarantee
