^^^OK @Sexyjigga... Thanks for the feedback. Those rappers from back in the day made lyrical sense not noise. Are you a pro rapper or you just simply love to listen to the flows?

Yeah I rap too... I love old school rap so much... From Rakim to Run dmc,Wutang clan, N. W. A, Krs one and a lot more..

Nice list

2pac still remain the greatest rapper ever

No cap

For me, The Notorious BIG is the greatest rapper of all time .

Kanye west is such a big deal

21 fvcking grammy awards....And he only debuted in 2004...

Well thanks to his production skills and his features on other artist's works

Wow...what a list.

Lalasticlala, please move this to front page....

That thing na Jay zee and kanye west they pack give themselves base on occult and influence, Rick Rose deserve more,And Eminem is the best Rapper on that list

The Grammy's are some sort of joke...They lost credibility when 50 cent lost best new artist to Evanescence in 2004 and when kanye's My beautiful dark twisted fantasy (One of the greatest albums of all time) didn't win album of the year in 2010...

If you keep using Grammy awards/nominations to measure the artistry and prowess of an artiste you'd be more wrong than right.

Grammy is political, controversial and not necessarily based on the outreach of an artiste and or general public acceptance.

You need not wonder how those who use their rap to preach morality, criticize the government and create public awareness don't win grammies.

Heck Jay-Z has been an illuminati puppet since day 1.
