Top 5 Rappers?

All other rappers are just wiggity wiggity wack!
 
What?

None of us would be here today is the old school hadn't paved the way.

Huh? 2Pac isn't old school...or maybe he is, and I'm just old now. But I dug a lot of his contemporaries more than I did him. I still think he got a lot more run as a rapper than he should have; a lot of that, of course, has to do with him being a "martyr," of sorts. I got all of his stuff and tried to get into it like everyone else...but there was never a whole lot of creativity there for me

Yep, way overrated as a rapper. Not a bad actor, though! :p

So now 2Pac is old school? :hmm:

lulz, the old school reference is actually a line from a 2Pac song where 2Pac is referencing the old(er) school (Furious 5, Melle Mel, Sugar Hill Gang, et. al.).

I don't know that I would put 2Pac in my top 5 either, but he made some good music.
