chaberry: A good musician don't need 2 drop many albums 2 prove him/herself, many artistes both local nd abroad have make names 4 themselves just by droppin a couple of gud music tracks, talkless of an album

Bros/Sis, the story of 9ice nullified your assumption undecided

@bawsee take away Godwon and replace with lord V and u have a perfect list. I don't know what these dudes are talking about but if u don't have boogey on your list then it is wack, albums or no albums boogey is the best currently hands down.
Re: Top Ten Nigerian Lyricist Of All Times by DoctorTim: 8:49am On Jul 16, 2014
Yung6- too much Punchlines, his schooling in hip hop really needs re structuring. HipHop isn't just about punchlines.. lyrical contents has to be heard.
6foot+- Fell off. Never really had it for me.
2shotz- Lyrically, zero!
Olamide Good but not great. Nice replacement for Dagrin though.
Reminisce ; Lyrically Sound. Articulate. Great word play.
Vector : Lyrically great, but still can't get the jocking Jay-z out my mind so he wldnt my list.
Killz- Another version of Meek Mill. All that shouting ain't gon cause record sales. He's below average. Bleep the accent
M.i : Great
Jesse: The Greatest. (using their own words)
Mode Nine: True and Real. The trillest
Pherowsious: learnt from the best. Good HipHop schooling so he can be great too.
Phyno: A breath of fresh air to the HipHop scene. The igbo version of Dagrin. Very original. Great style. Lyrically untouchable in his own way. Word play average but delivery makes him a king amongst the new cats. I rate him very very high.
Suspekt; whackness! He's not HipHop. He's a phony. Uses pidgin and corny humour to try to be relevant but he's whackness personified.
Iceprince: fell off. Whack to me. Sarkodie murdered him on his own song. Had 16 bars of whackness and bragging. Sarkodie had over 32bars and never bragged for a line. I wish we cld all come together and shut him down. Btw Sarkodie is a king.
Illy: true head. Though he's getting commercialised by the company he keeps, still I won't blame him. Things in the game don changed. He's a boss
SDC; great crew. Nigeria's own. Wu tang clan.
Terry: good wordplay. Came correct. Still gon be relevant if he puts out some new material.
Eva: whack
Splash; whack
Sasha: whack
I don't. Even knw any femal thjat goes hard.
This is just my thoughts and opinion. It's definitely not gonna affect their record sales. It's not gonna. Bite them. It's not gonna make or break them. But from my little cubicle where I stay listening, this is just what I feel about these rappers. PS; Khali Abdu is a genius. Feel free to attack me now. Peace to the north east. (maiduguri and em)

Dopestfiend:

what's your take on modenine black rap messiah...
his delivery was dope as usual, still trying to distinguish himself from commercial rappers. He has been doing that since way back even in some recent songs.. if u love lyrics delivery, u wud love black rap messiah Coz He did justice.

Phyno is a new artiste....has he dropped more albums than any of the niggas listed.he is Gud...prolly the best now....but playa,a true lyrical genius has to repeat itself...no one hit/album wonder
....ice prince didn't even make my cut.....so think about the lyrical depth n strength here.....n this isn't a list for just one year...its of all times......n by d way...do gud to drop ur list
If this is your reason for exempting phyno from ur so called list then 6foot plus should nt even be here,wen last did u here from him and infact how many of his songs do you know,the guy may prolly be in one foreign country hussling and u are here putting him amongst ur top 10 lyricist.

Dygeasy: E be like say na your padi dem names you put for there.

Who is six-foot-plus?

2shortz, Ikechukwu? Seriously?

Olamide sef. Just that he might be sensible at times.

Your list is half-wack, half-meaningful.

Save for Mode 9, Vector, Jesse Jagz, Terry tha rapman and maybe Olamideg. the others are joookesss

Since you know it all, why don't you just name your own top 10

I won't name my own top ten cos it's bound to have faults in them.

You took the bold step and we have the right to criticize your list.

Nothing personal.
