First off, everybody has a different opinion on what makes up a great MC. So nobody should be bashing anybody else's picks. This is YOUR top ten FAVORITE MC's of all time. Nobody is going to have the same list and some people are going to have what you consider to be odd picks. Including myself.
1. E-40: Been my fav for 10+ years now. Has a unique delivery and flow that has influenced many of todays rappers weather they know it or not.
2. Brotha Lynch Hung: Impeccable delivery. Brought in a new gangsta/sicc style that changed the sound of Sac rap. SOTS is a classic but, IMO, Loaded is the album that forever cemented his place in west coast rap history.
3. Tech N9ne: Has the best combination of lyrical ability, delivery, content and flow of anybody ever.
4. W.C.: One of the most underrated MC's IMO. One of the best deliveries in the game (yeah, delivery is a HUGE factor for me). Is a little redundant as far as content but always finds new ways to say it and keep me interested.
5. Scarface: The REAL king of the south. Anyone who says any different has no clue what they are talking about. Has a knack for painting a picture in your mind with his words. Great storyteller and has a voice that makes him sound like an authority on whatever subject he is speaking on.
6. Crooked I: The best pure lyricist I've heard. And yeah, delivery is on point. He can flip any style. Sure he doesn't have an album out but he has enough material available for me to know that he is just flat out one of the best ever.
7. Ice Cube: Not much explanation needed. Cube is a living legend. Period.
8. Mac Dre: The least lyrically gifted on my list. But he was clever and witty enough to make up for his lyrical simplicity.
9. Ice-T: The first to really put it down for the west coast lifestyle. He was talking that pimp/playa/hustla/gangsta shit when the west was just starting to get some exposure. Was ahead of his time in that regard and is a west coast rap forefather.
10. Spice 1: Dope delivery and flow. IMO he was THE gangsta rapper of the early to mid 90's. And his reggae/stutter spit was sick as fuck. His career went downhill fast but not before he dropped 3 for sure classics and 3 more really good albums.
The what could have been category:
The D.O.C.
Rappin Ron
X-Raided
Big L
The couldn't choose one over the other category:
Big Boi & Andre
Eightball & MJG
Bun B & Pimp C
The close but no cigar category:
Rakim: Brought complexity to rap lyrics but career was WAY too short.
Eazy E: Mostly for his vision and the way he shaped the west coast sound.
B-Legit
Too $hort: Yeah he's simple but fuck you BIIIIIIIITCCHHHHHH!!!
Kurupt: He's shit now but in his early days he was a fuckin beast.
Suga Free
Mac Mall
MC Ren
Yukmouth
San Quinn
and many more......... Im tired of typing
