Some of the better lyricists and musicians in rap and hiphop?


Going old school, I’ve always admired Chuck D’s powerful voice and his lauded expression and articulation in his delivery. Along those lines, Outkast’s voices and hooks are classic. And Nas’s lyrics are as good as anything ever released in the genre. You combine PE’s Nation of Millions with Nas’ Illmatic and sprinkle in some "Ms. Jackson" and you have the first 20 years of hiphop.


Nowadays Anderson .Paak delivers beautifully, as did Mac Miller (rip).

If you don't like the message, then shoot the messenger. Is that the way we do things around here?

Millercarbon, it was a crime to teach slaves how to read and write, Some descendants had parents who could not read or write.

Both Democrats and Republicans owned slaves, both Democrats and Republicans belonged to the KKK. What's your point?

It's hard to find a school that teaches the finer points of lyrical Rapping now days.

Only those Rappers who went to the advanced school of Rapping qualify as better lyricists.

Millercarbon, where did those "Rappers" come from; did you walk out your door one day and it was raining "Rappers".

No, they are descendants of slaves. How did slaves get here? That's far enough for now.
