Sigh.
Biggie

Rakim
2pac
Andre 3K

And lots more. I love Doom, and he's a master, but he has a very defined style and very rarely goes outside his comfort zone. He's the master at what he does, but he's got no breadth.
>>65696818
Kanye is more varied than Doom, but definitely not a better rapper in terms of skill, flow, lyrics, etc. Kanye is actually pretty mediocre as pure rapping goes.

>>65696953
2pac is just 90's nostalgia garbage. What he did to rap as a genre was notable, but his skills are sub par at best.
>>65696894
Kanye has the best lyrics in hip-hop.

Face it Kanye, you're not that great. Get off of /mu and go check on North.
>>65697004
I really don't agree with this but you're entitled to your opinion. Just make sure you've listened to his two great LPs (Me Against The World & All Eyez On Me) before you cement that opinion.

You are totally correct about DOOM never trying anything too different than what he's known for, but the list you made isn't very good imo.
>Biggie
I mean yeah, okay, it's a close call though.
>Nas
Hell no, he never made anything worthwhile since Illmatic
>Rakim
Not any more diverse/skilled than DOOM, perhaps more "important".
>2pac
hack
>Andre
More diverse for sure, doesn't make him better.
>KRS-One
More diverse for sure, doesn't make him better.
Actually better than DOOM:
Eminem, Talib Kweli, Method Man, Pharoahe Monch, Myka 9, Busta (?).
Daveed Diggs
>>65696601
no one's style is more outside the box than MF DOOM.
He really is the best.

His bars are trash, flow measns fuck all in his case. He cant spit real shit because he's a wack nigga.

Doom doesn't have any songs that come close to NY State Of Mind, I Gave You Power and Nazareth Savage though.

>>65700608

>>65700596

His lyrics arent' meangiful in any way beyond being shallow feel good shit. He might have like one or two lines in Long Live that are "meaningful" in a elementary way but that's about it.

Alright I'll give you Biggie has better presence and flow, 2pac tells better stories and also has better flow, but other than Andre I'd say Doom has better lyrics then all of them.
Andre 3k is probs one of the best rappers of all time though.

>>65701721
I listen to more genres than you.
I know what I want out of rap and won't go out of my way to listen to something in a different language, when said genre is most suited in English.
>>65701769
yeah, and i guess you know how many genres i listen to because of the cameras you installed in my room?
also, this isn't a dick size contest. i'm only trying to encourage you to push (or rather forget) your limits and discover something new.
and saying it's 'most suited in english' is preposterous. because you've probably never listened to non-english rap (which merely means that you can't say that), and because english is a shit language for metrics and poetry in general.
>>65700425
He doesn't rap as fast so he's not as good you pleb.

>>65701932
i hope you realize you citing Shakespeare as an example of a good poet can only go as far as prove my point.
that is, you know nothing about poetry.
and just fyi, Fabri Fibra isn't mexican, he's italian. which is miles ahead of english as a poetry language, if not one of the outright best ones to do poetry in.
>>65701932
also, i'm pretty sure they're limits.
also because standards are good.
>>65696601
Atmosphere
Horrorshow
>>65701995
I hope you realise that internals, assonance and multis come from English poetry.
Things you can't detect in another fucking language.
You fucking namefag coming on and telling people who have grown up on the genre, that they know nothing about hip-hop.
Who the fuck are you?

na na na nahhh
>>65702031
do you suffer from legitimate brain damage? how ignorant would you have to be to think assonances or internal rhymes come from english poetry? and moreover, how can you possibly believe those things don't exist in italian?
you may have grown up on the genre, but maybe it's time you grow out of it. you can keep listening to the same shit over and over again until the day you die, or actually try to open up your world and discover something new. and i don't mean 'a different mainstream american rapper' new, i mean completely new.
but whatever. i sure as hell can't force you. nor do i have any interest to do so. remain in ignorance.

>Close the borders to keep you lot out.
Your ignorance and strict unacceptance is flagrantly affecting your reasoning capabilities greatly. I am unwilling to take part in this pointless "discussion" you two are conducting whatsoever, but simply jugding by the sole fact that you are uncapable of even knowing the difference between a Mexican and an Italian implies you're either an underage infant who still has yet to study the world map at school or a bigot racist (hilarious, since Americans are literally a mix of the worst of all races) who is blinded by his own inferiority complex, who probably inherited this biased, flawed-to-the-core ideology from his elder relatives.
Shame on you.

Not many rappers better then DOOM man... The only ones I can think of are Rakim, Guru, Nas, Andre 3000, Jeru The Damaja, Chuck D, Black Thought and Q-Tip (based only on rapping skills)
shit this thread opened my eyes to rappers I've never even heard of, man, this is some real good stuff.
thanks dudes.

Originally it was a term that indicated that you followed underground or local hip hop. This was because people exchanged demos, and a lot of people traveled from place to place with only their... backpacks.
Of course /mu/ misappropriated this term way back when to be an insult for people who like underground hip hop. Particularly hip hop made by white dudes. Def Jux, Rhymesayers and anticon. being the biggest offenders in /mu/s eyes.
It's not actually an insult. Luckily it's lost its popularity as one on this board. The more you know.

I listened to this for the first time today, I hated it so much
"What up? To all rappers: shutup! And while you're shuttin' up put a shirt on at least button up... Yuck! Are they rhymers or strippin males? Outta work jerks since they shut down Chippendale's..."
>>65711756
Or: "A cat with a dead mouse is how we catch a phrase in paws and play with it, Kill it, and eat off it for days; Get IT?! Who ever don't get it aint supposed to" All these rappers are great, Talking about lyricism BIG L Definitely steps up to the plate big time, and if you listen to that old Eminem joint Infinite he comes close. As far as spreading a good message and philosophical thought Mos Def, Talib, Common, and The Tribe are definitely better than him. But when it comes down to raw lyricism, true mind bending and challenging wordplay... no one can touch DOOM. These quotes I put from his songs even close to his best. He's one of the only Rap artists out there that I have to close my eyes and truly focus on every word or else I miss something and I have to rewind. And no matter how well I know the lyrics I can hardly ever rap along with him. He is (from a lyrical standpoint) THE GREATEST
