Javalove and double six abeg make una stop cos i don laf here break plate 4 house, Lmao at d two Of U.
Now let me get down to biz my 5 best naija rapperz,am jst gonna analyze dem.
1.Mode 9,lyrically i fink he's tight buh my problem wif him is his very unfamiliar style,beatz.
2. M.I as far as rap is goez in naija at d moment he's d hottest and i lyk d both d theme of his rap and d fact dat he appealz to both hardcore and commercial rap.
3Naeto C he's rap is effortless,kool & sexy,he remindz of LL Cool J and Mase,U can take her to bed wif Naeto in d background.
4.Overdose, Damn it!Dis guy is very smooth wif his lyricz,he usez wordz dat messes wif d mind lyk d rasta's weed.D guy is jst not lucky,i fink he and Mody need to cool off a bit wif d too hardcore stuf,a gud rapper should be able to appeal to both sidez hardcore and commercial rap afterall dier success dependz on record salez.
5 Blaize, So far she's d best undiluted female rapper,she aint tryinna be any1,if i were to choose btw sasha and kelz,kelz!

Re: Top 5 Best Rappers In Nigeria by mceeluther: 11:56pm On Nov 16, 2009
Nigerian hiphop state of mind is totally zero. Well if you want to know who rappers are why not visit www.Africanhiphop.com. You would also get to see me there known as explicitluther. other guys like Mode nine, ruggededman, M. I., Illbliss, The crew known as street butta, Gino and Naeto C. Top the Nigerian Hiphop scene but other good lyricst are: Supect (bit wacker than my five fingers), Sasha is also an emcee, Kel, Khemistry, Blazie, Bouqui, Ikechukwu (Bit ill lyrically), Tecqzilla, Eclipse, sauce Kid (though he lacks poetry), For now not forgetting pherocious, OD, Terry tha rapman


As for Lord of Ajasa: Even Timaya rap pas am grin
Re: Top 5 Best Rappers In Nigeria by bjmighty(m): 9:09am On Nov 20, 2009
1. MODENINE
His lyrics are out of imagination and he will kill any kind of beat you give him, no wonder even Lagbaja (omo baba mukomuko) featured him on his track. A bigwig musician of Lagbaja's calibre would't have featured Mode9 if he wasn't doing hip hop the way its suppose to be done. Me think mode9 is the reason why hip hop finally stood its ground in naija. Mode9 started real hip hop even when people were hissing at him he stucked to his gun and the aftermath is the reason why all our rappers are now sounding american today. This should be an inspiration to all upcoming rappers and even the ones there now. No mode9 has made rap music popular in naija and people don't want to accept the true fact that he layed the mat for these newcomers to walk on. Lets be honest here, if mode9 hadn't stucked to his gun Sauce, M.I, Ghetto bitch P and all these small new rappers coming out now will all be rapping like pigdin rap like Rugged man. angry angry angry angry Mode9 is a Legend! Faze should have mentioned his name in his originality song, well he featured in the remix version and that made me glad.

2. EEDRIS ABDULKAREEM
Eedris no doubt is synonymous to naija hip hop, the history of naija hip hop is incomplete without that name. Lyrically he may not be a good punchliner but when speaking naija hip hop generally then you must not leave him out. During his reign he was the most sort after and one of the highest paid artiste then. He was the first Nigerian Rapper i looked up to then. I just love his naija/omo-ita style. His albums are like umbrella during raining season, you must have it and his hit tracks always compete with the all school anthem National Anthem in every primary school and secondary school. I love his naija originality and his little touch of "Omo-ita" its makes him Eedris Abdulkareem. The guy is fire when on stage, i remember one of his performances i saw on Prime time, that guy has got street credibility. If there is one artiste in naija that i will always love for no reason, then it is Eedris Abdulkareem. Either you like it or not you must knod your coconut head whenever the DJ spins Sakomo, Sade, Belinda, Mr Lecturer, Jaga jaga, Rema, Koleyewon e.t.c . Am still crazy about his first album "PASS". I love his Letter to Mr president Album, from the first to last track is crazy. LondON NoGuns and Rema are my favorite in that album. He spat fire in King is back, all the tracks prove he has step up lyrically, the album cut across all subjects you wann talk about from his life to family, Niger Delta, naija music, politics, religion e.t.c , Eeedris Baba, i hail you anytime! smiley smiley smiley smiley

3. ELDEE THA DON
This is another lyriku we-re, Lanre is cool when it comes to versatility then you are talking about ELDEE THA DON. He can switch style anytime and flow on any beat. I respect his one of the pioneers. He is a so many in one. He is another reason why naija hip hop stood ground. All these new comers coming now and shouting "swagga swagga! should pay homage to people like Mode9, Eedris and Eldee e.t.c He has even gone internationally by doing a song with Young Joc and Ciara. Eldee is tha real don!!

4. RUGGED MAN
This guy blow my mind any day anytime. I always anticipate to hear from him. Am in love with all his album, his delivery is bomb and he has a way of killing every song he is featured but he seem to be fading out of my audio system slowly because its been long i heard from him or does he have a new album out after RUGGEDY BABA because me i know no oo. Am outside so e no easy to know but i doubt if he has any after Ruggedy baba. Also, i think Mode9's deathblow kicked him out of my Home thearter undecided undecided undecided maybe sha but i still look forward to hear from him. Ruggedy baba is a huge album and from the beginning to end is sick. Rugged is a tight lyricist too when it comes to English/pidgin flowz.

5. M.I/ELAJOE/O.D/TERRY D' RAPMAN and DAGRIN

As for my 5th best, am skeptical, i have to share it between the above listed. I love M.I's delivery on every track of him, he is a beat killer and he gat bomb rhymes that can disflower a 10years old girl.
Elajoe is an under-rated rapper, i have been at his back since the days of thoroughbred and i find him real sick, he should come out with something for boys to feed on man.
O.D - Thats my man, his flow delivery is sick too. Some say his flows sound mode9-like, that one na lie!! The guy got his own flows. Mode9 switches style, mode is versatile on rap delivery but O.D sticks to his own style and is kicking it great. Am loving him.
Terry - Terry and mode9 are the only two naija rappers that i have confirmed that they are real rappers. They can freestyle, i mean they are freestylist, they can freestyle on any beat at anyday anytime. I have confirmed that. Terry got crazy deliveries and off tha hook punclines. He has never disappointed me on any of the tracks i have heard of him. Boiz are not smiling!!!!!! Boys dey vomit!!!!

Dagrin -  All of us know na, this guy is a badman on yoruba hardcore rape. He took Yoru-rap to the next level. Ajasa made it a nice style but Dagrin took it hardcore and thats the reason why am of the opinion that his C.E.o will snatch best album of the year if nominated. Dagrin is Lyrical babalawo. grin grin grin

That is my personal analysis ooooo. Please, am not spraying licence for anyone to beef me ooo or call me names and if u wann give me argument make sure you hit objectivity and be sensibly because i heard MTN is doing free internet browsing for people with memory of low RAM, i don't want people in that category plss! smiley smiley smiley grin grin grin
Re: Top 5 Best Rappers In Nigeria by charlesluw: 9:43am On Nov 20, 2009

Re: Top 5 Best Rappers In Nigeria by Fugaze: 6:33pm On Dec 10, 2009
Before him there was many, after him there'll be none, He's the one, M.I, Somebody wants to die
Re: Top 5 Best Rappers In Nigeria by Fugaze: 6:40pm On Dec 10, 2009
Ok Ok Ok , Sauce is good, only that that first album was a mix tape and ervthang was gotten from foriegn artists, Mode's started drifting from his KRS one style which i think is a good idea. Lookin forward to l istening to jesse Jags and Ice prince as i hear they r hot. But M.I, I think that short black boy is the H in Hip-hop. Can i get an encore?
