johnnydrama Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 MOS DEF and BUS DRIVER Have you listened to the former's new release The Ecstatic? Btw, he's also quite a good actor too (bakit kay daming-dami mga rapper nangngarap maging artista - LL Cool J, Will "The Fresh Prince" Smith, Common, Eminem, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg to name a few). He appeared in movies like Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy and 16 Blocks Quote Link to comment

I have to check that fact out! Lupe Fiasco really is a creative dude! I'm not really super updated on underground and mainstream hiphop anymore cuz of college. I mean the new acts in Rap like drake and others etc. haha! Quote Link to comment
Lord Superb Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Rakim, aka The God MC, aka the Microphone Fiend, has to be on the top of my list of greatest lyricists, followed closely by Gza, Nas, Killah Priest, Lord Jamar, Bronze Nazareth, just to name a few. As for rap groups, of course there's Wu-tang, Jedi Mind Tricks, Outerspace, Self Scientific, Snowgoons...etc. Quote Link to comment

Give credit to Kanye West for having a keen nose for samples (even if he himself has been drinking from the d0ucheb@g fountain one too many times) Quote Link to comment
