Top 3 Biggie, Hova, Nas i can listen to these guys for hours when i am high. I listen to everything from hip hop to jazz to heavy metal. those are just my 3 favorite in this category. i don't need to make a top 10. those 3 are great.
Top 10.... Wow this could be hard. 10) Masta Killah 9) Inspectah Deck 8) Raekwon 7) O.D.B 6) Rza 5) Gza 4) Ghostface Killah 3) U-God 2) Method Man 1) Wu Tang Clan Okay, so its biased and wasn't hard at all. But the state of hip-hop is sad and it seems that all I can enjoy are the classics!
No order... U God - Wu Tang Clan Inspectah Deck - Wu Tang Clan (I throw in GZA and RZA too, and Ghostface ) Rakim Nas Technique - Immortal Technique Eminem Lil Wayne (yeah, that's right) Biggy Tupac Pimp C Cormega Big L ... That's more than ten.
I really don't have favorites so I'll throw down what I'm currently listening to. Artifacts The Cool Kids Hollywood Holt Ed Solo & The Skool of Thought G. Love(Rapper/rock kinda dude) GZA Hieroglyphics KiD CuDi (Mainly cause he's from Cleveland and that's my homeland ) Chip Tha Ripper Cypress Hill A somewhat lame list, but I'm more of a reggae kinda guy.
