Stop kidding yourself. Em is the GOAT and it's not even close. Wether it's technical skill, commercial success or influence on rap as a whole. No one can touch Em. He's the Michael Jordan of Rap.

PAC touched on what was going on in the community with the poor with the person that felt hopeless. PAC also had party music too in my opinion there isn't another artist who did it better. PAC had three classic albums me against the world all eyes on me and Makaveli these are just facts you can't sell 5 million copies in two months if you not the best way what your doing . PAC has two diamond albums that means two albums that sold 10 million or more the only other person in hip hop to do that is Em so that's my thoughts on your response.
Pac had a very good charisma unlike many other rappers had . But lyrically speaking guys like Biggie and Nas edge above just a little bit but Pac was one of a kind. These are opinions don't feel offended
Nas is skilled and one of the greatest no doubt, but he doesnt have the commercial success or crossover appeal that people like Eminem and 2Pac has. Those 2 should be at the top of this list, they have the numbers to back it up and a larger reach than jayz and nas.

@@jaimegaribo318 I never compared him to MJ, I used him as an ANALOGY, I said he is THE “MJ” of HipHop, meaning the Iconic and arguably the greatest figure in rap
How is tiring. Having a list full of men like always is tiring tf. Why yall so werid. Is it really killing you that a woman is top 10. She proved herself so many times. You want me to list some songs for you.
Jay Z and kendrick are not the greatest rappers of all time. They say a whole lot of nothing. Just alot of words. Snoop is not top 10. Tupac Biggie smalls! Lil Wayne! Dmx! Nas! Drake! Thats your top! Then Jay Z. Nicki badder done Jay Z if you ask me
This entire list is woke garbage. NIKI AND PHARREL ARE TOP 10?? They picked “top 30-40” Nikki over: Bone Thugz, Tech 9, Luda, Common, Kanye, RAKIM??!?, Ice Cube, Mos Def, Andre 3000, Lauren Hill, the list goes on. Just because they’re relevant DOES NOT MAKE THEM TOP OVER THESE LEGENDS.
I find it funny, that the people above Eminem on this list got washed by Shady on their collaborations.. Eminem Destroyed Jay-Z on Renege(Em also produced the track for Jay), and Eminem washed Kendrick on Love Game(Who do you think Kendrick gets his flow pattern from?, Em) . Eminem also washed Nas on EPMD 2(It was a landslide on that track, listen carefully to the lyrics).. I don't have a problem with 2Pac being on top, because its debatable between Pac and Em, but to say Jay, Nas or even Kendrick is above Eminem?.... You people are smoking crack, or you are just flat out bias.. Eminem not only had a bigger Impact in Hip-Hop, but literally shifted the culture with his amazing 'Story Telling' and made fast rap popular once he dropped 'Forever, No Love, Rap God' , after that everyone started mimicking/attempting the same flow pattern... This list is not accurate, and the only reason Jay is #1 on this list, is because of his wealth he obtained outside of the Rap Culture .. What's also amusing is that '99 Problems' was originally Ice-T song, but Jay capitalized, re-wrote the structure of the song and later paid for the publishing rights for it, and never paid homage to Ice-T ... Disgusting.
Em never battled a top tier mc only bums. He was sheltered his whole career. Tupac would have destroyed him in a battle. Em signed 50 cause he knew Curtis could take him out too.
@@chomar97 Please, do me a favor and go read a book, and after you’ve gained some form of intelligence, only than do you have the privilege to type under my comments.. Go buy and read the book called ‘Hip Hop For Dummies’ . Everyone knows Eminem faught through adversity his whole life, especially leading up to his Rap Career due to the color of his skin, its called “Battle Rap” , something he went through in the early 1990’s, slaughtering MC’s from Detroit, Philly, Jersey and New York.. He has a long history of destroying a lot of dudes before he was signed by Dr. Dre. And since your d*ck riding Pac on my comment section so hard, how does it feel knowing Eminem produced Two of 2Pac’s Album? .. ‘Resurrection’ and ‘Loyal To The Game’ was produced by Eminem. Next time think before typing, moron .
Greatest Rapper All Times I give my list. Who should be in Top 10. My List realistic. 1.) 2Pac 2.) Nas 3.) OutKast (Andre 3000) 4.) Ice Cube 5.) The Notorious B.I G. 6.) Snoop Dogg 7.) Eminem 8.)

How isn't Eminem #1???? He met every criteria they based the list on and who else on that top 10 list has the longevity like he does and still making new music, still can rap their ass off, dropping new albums, still breaking records and is international???.. not to mention he's out rapped everyone he's ever gotten on a track with on that list.
@random lol yeah not to sure about that.. was even on Billboards criteria.. body of work/achievements (charted singles/albums, gold/platinum certifications), cultural impact/influence (how the artist’s work fostered the genre’s evolution), longevity (years at the mic), lyrics (storytelling skills) and flow (vocal prowess).
How Nas not #1 or #2 to 2pac is beyond me. Dude basically said people where against ETHER coming out (RIP&Thank God for DJ KSlay) and why must yall tie Nas ranking to Jay? Lol
Exactly! No mention of Illmatic, his storytelling in general, or his latest 4-album run nearly 30 years into his career. The one panelist who said anything acted as if Nas' career started and ended with Ether. This list is a joke, and the half-hearted explanation by the panel is even worse.

You need to understand that there are writers/authors, composers, directors, etc that's why the contribution/credit list is always huge on a particular song.
@@g.berenstein683 We had hardcore female rappers before Nicki, but Nicki is a different animal on her own, you can feel her emotion in her flows. All we have now are just cheap copies of her.
@@onyilimba yeah in pop music, for God sake, we're talking about the greatest right here, HTF can you be in the conversation with the name GREAT on it if you can't even write your own raps. We're talking about HipHop right here! not Pop!
Nice List, but 2Pac as number 4???? Even Old heads and Elderlies know and bump 2Pac over Jay-Z😂 A lot of ‘em don’t even know who Jay-Z is
2Pac is the Michael Jackson of Hip-Hop, EVERYONE, literally EVERYONE KNOWS HIM 🔥
2pac is not even close to MJ
@@jaimegaribo318 Shut up please
True, Jay z is a miserable sell out
@@jaimegaribo318 I never compared him to MJ, I used him as an ANALOGY, I said he is THE “MJ” of HipHop, meaning the Iconic and arguably the greatest figure in rap
No he isn’t
Putting nicki at soloey #10 is so expected old, & tired. To think her lyricism is only top 10 worthy is honesty ludicrous
How is tiring. Having a list full of men like always is tiring tf. Why yall so werid. Is it really killing you that a woman is top 10. She proved herself so many times. You want me to list some songs for you.
@James Williams I'm saying she should be put higher it's extremely tiring that out of top 10 they put her ONLY at #10 irs so expected
@@amyrose9889nenasonic oh
Kendrick rap catalog does not surpass Nas.
Lol Kendrick have way better songs
Not by a long shot, I got that Either - nas in repeat
Nas is the GOAT,still releasing classics
Jay Z and kendrick are not the greatest rappers of all time. They say a whole lot of nothing. Just alot of words. Snoop is not top 10. Tupac Biggie smalls! Lil Wayne! Dmx! Nas! Drake! Thats your top! Then Jay Z. Nicki badder done Jay Z if you ask me
The fact that Ice cube isn’t top ten is insane. Also nas is number 1
This entire list is woke garbage. NIKI AND PHARREL ARE TOP 10??
They picked “top 30-40” Nikki over:
Bone Thugz, Tech 9, Luda, Common, Kanye, RAKIM??!?, Ice Cube, Mos Def, Andre 3000, Lauren Hill, the list goes on.
Just because they’re relevant DOES NOT MAKE THEM TOP OVER THESE LEGENDS.

Nicki Minaj- Queen Of Rap as we all know. Shout out to the rest 👑🦄😘
I find it funny, that the people above Eminem on this list got washed by Shady on their collaborations.. Eminem Destroyed Jay-Z on Renege(Em also produced the track for Jay), and Eminem washed Kendrick on Love Game(Who do you think Kendrick gets his flow pattern from?, Em) . Eminem also washed Nas on EPMD 2(It was a landslide on that track, listen carefully to the lyrics).. I don't have a problem with 2Pac being on top, because its debatable between Pac and Em, but to say Jay, Nas or even Kendrick is above Eminem?.... You people are smoking crack, or you are just flat out bias.. Eminem not only had a bigger Impact in Hip-Hop, but literally shifted the culture with his amazing 'Story Telling' and made fast rap popular once he dropped 'Forever, No Love, Rap God' , after that everyone started mimicking/attempting the same flow pattern... This list is not accurate, and the only reason Jay is #1 on this list, is because of his wealth he obtained outside of the Rap Culture .. What's also amusing is that '99 Problems' was originally Ice-T song, but Jay capitalized, re-wrote the structure of the song and later paid for the publishing rights for it, and never paid homage to Ice-T ... Disgusting.
Eminem is and never will be a top five emcee no matter how much he sold. You dont know hip hop if you think so. Just repeating what they told you
Em never battled a top tier mc only bums. He was sheltered his whole career. Tupac would have destroyed him in a battle. Em signed 50 cause he knew Curtis could take him out too.
@@chomar97 Please, do me a favor and go read a book, and after you’ve gained some form of intelligence, only than do you have the privilege to type under my comments.. Go buy and read the book called ‘Hip Hop For Dummies’ . Everyone knows Eminem faught through adversity his whole life, especially leading up to his Rap Career due to the color of his skin, its called “Battle Rap” , something he went through in the early 1990’s, slaughtering MC’s from Detroit, Philly, Jersey and New York.. He has a long history of destroying a lot of dudes before he was signed by Dr. Dre. And since your d*ck riding Pac on my comment section so hard, how does it feel knowing Eminem produced Two of 2Pac’s Album? .. ‘Resurrection’ and ‘Loyal To The Game’ was produced by Eminem. Next time think before typing, moron .

Lil Wayne is the GOAT 🐐

Dead goat😂
I'm just here for the stan's tears
How isn't Eminem #1???? He met every criteria they based the list on and who else on that top 10 list has the longevity like he does and still making new music, still can rap their ass off, dropping new albums, still breaking records and is international???.. not to mention he's out rapped everyone he's ever gotten on a track with on that list.
In 96 Jay Z was not the King you clown... Plus you played a song cover of Pac he did .. GTFOH
@random lol yeah not to sure about that.. was even on Billboards criteria..
body of work/achievements (charted singles/albums, gold/platinum certifications), cultural impact/influence (how the artist’s work fostered the genre’s evolution), longevity (years at the mic), lyrics (storytelling skills) and flow (vocal prowess).
@random lol to quote the guy who's #1 on this list "men lie, women lie, numbers dont.
where is Prodigy?

How Nas not #1 or #2 to 2pac is beyond me.
Dude basically said people where against ETHER coming out (RIP&Thank God for DJ KSlay) and why must yall tie Nas ranking to Jay? Lol
NICKI MINAJ IS THE QUEEN 🫶🏾🦄
Why the world never allowed real rap mcs to do the selection?!!
Because this would be very different
Because we are talking about rappers who changes the culture.
Kendrick is not over Wayne , and the net says different.
Pac is the single greatest rapper of all time, from his flow, and his lyrics, to the impact he had on music.
This is true
Nicki is so lyrical if you listening to her whole discography and her real songs you should know she's deserve top 5 not just top 10
Nikki would make my top 5

Exactly! No mention of Illmatic, his storytelling in general, or his latest 4-album run nearly 30 years into his career. The one panelist who said anything acted as if Nas' career started and ended with Ether. This list is a joke, and the half-hearted explanation by the panel is even worse.

List good but from 1 to 10 everyone knows Nicki is the one that took rap globally and have fans in every country ethnicity and religion. Also she’s still making number 1, selling out, and having people waiting to see what she going do next. Also snoop Dogg need to be more in the front as well. Back to Nicki that we all know how billboard awards do her wrong as well!
