    #8. Lupe Fiasco - ? is gonna hate me for this one but im just keepin em honest.... ? has contributed his share to the game n even won a grammy or two which then led ? to faithfully believe that hes that ? . Now imo hes good n hes got bars n everything but the way Stans dickride dude is disgusting. OK fine he made it cool to be a nerd in hiphop , great, hes got nice bars but ? need to stop w/ these comparisons that he in the Top 10. i remember back on the old IC ? even went as far as dude could battle w/ Big n was better smmfh . dude is still young to the game n needs a hell of a lot more to do b4 we can call him GOAT or start throwin him in the ranks w/ them ? . Creatively tho ill give him his props he reminds me of a young picasso he has so much potential but lets not let it go to our heads folks.

    SMH...

    BIG is overrated, fam. You should have been here when we had that debate.

    Lupe >

    Dude is nicer than your favorite rapper, no doubt. I'm just being entirely honest about it.

    50 Cent - Get Rich or Die Trying was not a classic
    Jeezy - Same product, different beats...but is revered on here for some reason...hmmmm
    Gucci - See Jeezy
    Lil Wayne - And what has he done this decade worth mentioning, outside of what numerous NY punchline rappers have already accomplished and better
    Drake - Yes he counts because he had mixtapes out before So Far Gone. He is simply okay
    Eminem - The true definition of had a spark when you started and now you're just garbage
    Any rapper who died this decade - Big L, Big Pun, etc.

    Cannot argue with any of those choices well said...

    As a rapper? Kanye West. I think he's an incredible producer, but his rapping is mediocre at best.

    Shame on these idiots for naming Lupe. He's one of the best lyricists in the game right now. The Cool was the best rap album of 2007.

    if Wayne can be included i gotta say Nas.
    his last several attempts at making a good album failed.

    Wayne OWNs this thread. Anyone who says Nas or Lupe is insane. Look up their lyrics and you will see how brilliant they are. Listen to Wayne acapella and realize that 88 percent of the ? he says doesn't make sense but it's the witty twelve percent, followed by the chuckle, that, makes his stans go crazy

    dude overated rappers depend on the listener.
    ? swear Illmatic is a lyrical masterpeice but i have yet to hear it.
    Nas is overated to me.
    Wayne is where he susposed to be and Lupe is also.
    It is wat it is.
