    that’s a hard question. All time? Rakim Lauryn hill Missy elliot D’Angelo Kendrick Lamar. These are probably just the most important figures of all time. I also really like their work.

      Actually diabolical top 5, D’Angelo ain’t even hip-hop, Missy Elliot isn’t bad but top 5??? Kendrick Lamar also doesn’t belong in a top 5, and Lauryn Hill ain’t even got a discography like that

      The two most reasonable here are Kendrick and Rakim, never thought I’d be saying that, if you like lyrical rap then go and listen to MF DOOM, he’s fucking great

        white woman has been here how do you know? MF DOOM. everytime. These people literally built the genre or were massively influential and are the reasons your favs favs exist btw.

          Yeah, they’re not my favorites or the best of all time or anything in some cases, but their influence is genre defining

          MF DOOM is glazed and constantly talked about for a reason

          my top 5 is always very similar

          MF DOOM, Andre 3K, Eazy-E, Prodigy, and Krayzie Bone

          You can’t really say anyone but Rakim influenced these people lol

            I mean you can thank hip-hop being a global phenomenon for someone on my list pretty much. (MF DOOM is so over glazed it’s scary, and I own his vinyls.)

            Kanye (it’s ye.) Chief keef Lauryn hill Nas bottom is probably tupac

              MF DOOM is so under glazed, they basically spit on his name daily

              Kanye makes great music but anytime I hear about him, it makes me sad because like I’m Bipolar and so is my mom so I can relate to him in that way but I’m Jewish so like, he’s talking about me

              Chief Keef is INSANEEEEEEEE, I’m not even sure if he top 300

              Lauryn Hill is fair enough, she had a good solo album and the Fugees were alright

              Nas is very respectable

              Tupac is overrated, Biggie was unironically better

                How do you have these barbershop uncle ass tastes at 18 nigga damn. MF doom is glazed constantly, mostly by white people. literally look up MF doom on any social media and it’s all glaze.

                  My parents had me when they were both young adults, and so they put me on to 90s music and I fucking love 90s music, the other genre I listen to is rock and my favourite band is RHCP and technically it’s like a late 90s, to mid 00s thing but the general point is that 1988-2011 is when music peaked imo, I still like newer shit though like Pusha T has put some heat, JID is great, I fw with x and juice, I’m not just pure unc listening

                  saying MF DOOM is on the same tier as someone like Nas is extremely insulting to MF DOOM, that’s not glaze, glaze is like saying MF DOOM is by far the greatest rapper of all time, instead of just the greatest rapper of all time

                    this goes beyond glaze into pure dick riding cuh 😭 Nas washes doom. It’s genuinely not even a fair comparison. Seriously. It’s disgusting that you would have nas anywhere but top two. The man’s a cultural legend. Love doom but gah-lly.
