a lot of my faves have been mention & a lot of bad rappers were named as well, so im gonna add few that are not on the list:
M-FLO/Terryaki boys (there awsome outside if that FnF song)
classified
method man
dj quike
BIZ MARKIE (hes awsome)
will smith (come on right)

Royce da 5'9 is also solid.

i liked the fresh prince but he fell off hard.
and personally, i just cant stand asian rappers.
i dont care if its jin the mc or dumbfoundead, it just doesnt sound good IMO (although props to dumb, dude is funny as hell)

my actual ranking and positioning of who's better than who changes every month, but these are my favorites. I guess they're all my #1:

-royce da 5'9"
-slaughterhouse the supergroup
-kanye
-nas
-clipse
-tupac

Young buck
Young jeezy
Slim thug
Yo gotti
Gucci mane

imo Nas is hands down #1

Then throw in Em, tupac, biggy, for a tie for 2nd

you can throw whoever you like in the list, it's not about who the best rapper is, it's which rappers you listen to most and like

nas
tupac
jay z
andre
AZ
rakim
method
blackstar
bone thugs
jurassic 5

Funny how 90% of people mentioned are all back in the day rappers. I guess either we are all in the same age group, or today's rap sucks. Guess bit of both?

today's mainstream rap definately sucks

some of the artists listed make me think "are you effin kidding me, or are you stuck in a club in ATL"
