And I know this thread will end up being a fucking pit of despair.

My top 5 in order:
1. Andre 3000
2. Eminem
3. Kanye West
4. Biggie
5. Nipsey Hussle

Sadly, today hip hop seems to be a lost cause. Some decent rappers still in the west coast, like Nipsey, Kendrick Lamar and Dom Kennedy.

Kendrick Lamar is maybe the only "decent rapper" to come out of the 2010's.

I agree somewhat however I lost some faith when good kid m.a.a.d. city came out, expected more especially since Section 80 was amazing. I think Nipsey Hussle is better and Dom Kennedy is solid.

 

[Grumptronix]

MF Doom
Danger Mouse
Kool Keith

Fucking right!!! Kool Keith is the dirtiest fucker ever, and MF Doom and all his aliases are awesome. Danger Mouse is an amazing producer.

[Hitoshura]

1) Aesop Rock
2) The Palmer Squares
3) A Tribe Called Quest
4) Wu-Tang Clan
5) Earl Sweatshirt

Very hard to make a top 5 because I love a lot of artists like Tyler, The Pharcyde, Big L, Eminem, etc. My opinions always change, so I guess this is my top 5 at the moment, but Aesop Rock will always be #1.

Edit: For those who don't know The Palmer Squares then listen
MUFFHGGER

Jane Adams

Rape Room
