I'd of ranked Slug higher & added Geo from Blue Scholars.

Other than that, solid list. Long live Rhymesayers.

Even if you count Cinematropolis in?

Bayani is such a good album I can forgive them for that slip up in their career..Let's never speak of it again & hope they move away from that.

Good list... I haven't heard of Kool Keith or El-P before, definitely gonna have to check them out

Great post Sean!

Here is my list in no particular order: Chino XL, Gza, Geo of Blue Scholars, Lupe Fiasco, Immortal Technique, Andre 3000 of Outkast, Black Thought of The Roots, Slug of Atmosphere, Talib Kweli and Nas. This is how I feel like right now, this of course could change.
I might do honorable mentions later.

I like Kweli but I have to disagree with you there, but its all a matter of opinion. And damn I hate to turn into a stan but cmon son

"Studied more Shakespeare than any African shakes a spear at
And the whole world fear that,
and it hurts
I got caught killing time,
but then I got a way with words."

CMON SON. CMOOONNNNN SHUUUNNNNN.

For sure this is all just opinions anyways, but no one can deny that the MCs that are being listed in this thread are nothing but lyrical monsters.

**TheMythOfSisyphus** · 10-21-2011, 09:22 PM

This is true, even if some people want to try to shit on Canibus.

**Diegoscp** · 10-21-2011, 09:27 PM

I'm not a Canibus fan at all, but you can't deny that he is on some other shit with the lyrics.

**TheMythOfSisyphus** · 10-21-2011, 09:38 PM

Rip the Jacker was ill son. JUST SAYIN.

**Gezus** · 10-21-2011, 09:41 PM

The quality of this thread is diminishing with each post supporting Chino XL and Canibus as rappers. Shame.

^ Dude Gezus , have you ever heard an album by Chino XL? pay attention to the production and lyrics of "Poison Pen".
