FAV RAPPERS

ANDRE 3000
CEELO
2PAC
BUN B
MJG
FIELD MOB
BIZZY AND KRAZY BONE
TI

I THINK OUTKAST AND BONE THUGS ARE THE GREAT RAP GROUPS OF ALL TIME

I FEEL THAT BUN B'S VERSE ON MURDER IS THE GREATEST VERSE OF ALL TIME, FOLLOWED BY MJG'S VERSE ON "LAY IT DOWN"

I feel you Bone is my favorite group of all times, it is sad that they have not been able to parlay and maintain relevancy with their new music as they still drop dope joints when they are getting along long enough to record quality tracks...

Yeah i know this thread has been done before but we have to get things back on track. Most of the times Kats spend more time focusing on what we do not agree on then bickering versus what we do agree on and building. Debate has its place though but it is not this thread. Everything needs a foundation and since HipHop is what we all have in common show your Musical lineage and love of the culture here...

Who are your Favorite Rappers?

Canibus (IMO the GOAT).
Common
Ras Kass
Chino XL
Tupac
Big Pun
Pharoahe Monch
Elzhi
B.I.G
Nas
Lupe Fiasco
Little Brother
GangStarr
Mos Def
Talib Kweli
Jay-Z (older material)
Jedi Mind Tricks and many others

Where you From?
