Wit no biggie ? DisqualifiedAs far as impact, hitmaking, popularity, sells, consistency and longevity?
1. Pac
2. Jay-Z
3. Eminem
4. 50cent
5. Nas
6. Lil Wayne
Everyone has the right to an opinion. I just look at Pac objectively. He was taken too soon. Only had a legit 4-5 year run. Def not long enough on the longevity. I think Pac’s impact is skewed because of his death. Sure he has hits. But he he also has a lot of filler due to him trying to get the fuck up out of death row. 50 cent also loses that longevity/impact argument. 50’s run was about 4-5 years. Maybe. His last hit I recall was Baby By Me, which was once 10 years ago.
If I was going by your criteria, also in no order
- Jay Z
- Lil Wayne
- LL Cool J
- Drake
- Kanye

With his being in tune with the current landscape as they were to theres, he’s phenomenal
Facts.
He ain't a better rapper than j Cole or Kendrick.
In a positive way noi have yet to hear a line from Drake that made me go
in a positive way.
Stay schemin "Bitch you weren't with me shooting in the gym"
Diddy must have been drinking when he had say this!!... 
I was going to include Big but he only had a 3 year career but that 3 years was fuckin HUGE so i'm not trippin.
Damn, forgot about Kanye and LL.
I’ll give drake that at this point. He broke the billboard record.Diddy must have been drinking when he had say this!!...
Never seen Eminem in anyone black top five
and Drake shouldn't be in anyones top five over 30
Quick question about Eminem. When people usually list him top 5, they’re talking about lyrically. Not that they necessarily listen to him.
When Rakim, Jay z, Black Thought etc list Em as top 5. I doubt that they mean top 5 rappers that they listen to. They’re talking about skill. I can damn near guarantee Ra and Black Thought ain’t listening to no Eminem!
But if one is to talk about lyrically the best rappers ever, if you’re into Hip Hop lyrics and bars. Then Em has to be top 5 whether you listen to him or not.
I don’t listen to Em like that but he is, one of the top rappers of all time. That’s not in question.
And no, I don’t listen to Em. Haven’t in years.
Ask yourself a question, if all of his peers regard him high lyrically. Then why don’t many Hip Hop fans?
I think subject matter is his weakness.Quick question about Eminem. When people usually list him top 5, they’re talking about lyrically. Not that they necessarily listen to him.

I'm talking about Em.Ok what you’re not gonna do, is make me a Drake cheerleader in this thread!
He talks about women, money, relationships, making it, growing up, belief in himself etc.
If we breakdown some other rappers subject matter, we might be saying the same things.

A lot of people can rap...that doesn't mean they're entertaining or that I want to listen to them
I think J Cole can rap, but I haven't found him entertaining in a long time
And that’s the key, you don’t want to listen to him.
I don’t want to listen to Eminem either, but I recognize his talent as an MC and rapper. That I can’t deny, whether I want or like listening to him or not.
That’s not saying much, greats have passed and people over time don’t notice. Especially if you never listened to them.

I listened.. I wouldn't notice.
I can say he can rap, I would never say he can't
But I would never put him in my top 5...10...20....30
Los can rap, I don't necessarily want to listen to Los though.
Mos Def can rap, Lupe can rap, Black Thought can rap, Royce can rap, Phonte can rap, Pharoahe Monch can rap
I listen to dudes who can rap
Eminem says nothing I want to hear nor nothing I can relate to
Millions of other would, but I get it.
If McDonald’s no longer existed I wouldn’t notice, but apparently billions of other would so I get it.
That's fucking meaningless
It's a lot easier to have a hit now
That's some shit chicks say.
Again, I get it and it’s a personal thing as it should be.
But again, if the greatest rappers living say he’s top 5 lyrically. Then I’m generally gonna side with their opinions.
Again, I’m talking about his skill level.
I don’t listen to Nas like that. I listen to the first two albums then I kinda fell off. Kinda like Jay said he did!
But if you ask me to list the top rappers of all time, I’m gonna list Nas. As I said, I don’t personally listen to Nas like that. But it’d be disrespectful to him and Hip Hop for me not to list him.
Trust me, I get it though.
I see he STILL trying to make up for SMACKING HIM
And Oh, no specific order
Biggie
Jay Z
Nas
(Gotta Get Two Old School Rappers)
Kool Moe Dee
Melle Mel

There's always been one hit wonders.
Not too many people can have continuous hits and be at the top as long as Drake has.

Your last two statements are incorrect, the fans made him.
Drake releases a mixtape, a Mixtape and fans make it chart on Billboard! That’s not marketing, that’s the fans!
MIXTAPES!
all his mixtapes were sounding like somebody else, he always switches his style.. to whatever artist is hot in the streets..
buuuuuuut you have to give him credit, he made that shit a gotdam art form....
and he does have bangers.... I like some of his shit.. just not a fan and would never pay to see him live...
but if I had FREE tickets I would go just to see the hoes..
that muthafucka BRINGS out the hoes.....
