LyricalLesson Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Now...THIS is my kind of topic. I saw this a bit earlier and knew someone would post it here. I can't say I'm outraged...because, well...it's WACK ASS Billboard writers who came up with the list. However, I can say that I was real surprised when I saw the listing. A few of these artists have NO business being inside a GREATEST Rappers of ALL TIME list, and it's almost comical that they are. In my opinion, they do have a number of artists represented that SHOULD be there...but the positions for some are DEAD wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janetDAYZ Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share Posted November 21, 2015 Snoop sounds off! In an Instagram post published on Tuesday, Snoop Dogg shared exactly how he felt about Billboard's list, which includes rappers like the Notorious B.I.G, Jay Z, Eminem, Lauryn Hill, Kendrick Lamar and Ghostface Killah, among others."This is so disrespectful.!! Whoever did this list need a swift kick in the Ass," the rapper wrote in an Instagram caption with a picture of the list. "No. Tupac. Come on cuz."

Bailey Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 so here we are talking about thus promoting a Billboard article, which begs the question of how they assembled this list in the first place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i think the outrage with Pac not being on there not only stems from him being beyond deserving (when he has been arguably considered "The God" of rap) but how can you have Biggie and no Pac. Now say what you want ..but that definitely doesnt make sense AT ALL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeJoe Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 2pac gone is just the dumbest shit ever and if you gon even dream of putting Andre 3000 up there then you can put Drake up there too cause honestly no matter if Andre is a Legend or not Drake definitely has lyrical skills and probably better than Andre 3000s.

Laveaux Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Andre should be higher tbh. Billboard is trolling leaving out Mr. Shakur...they know exactly what they are doing and people are giving them the reaction they wanted. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janetDAYZ Posted November 22, 2015 Author Share Posted November 22, 2015 Me personally.. Ive never understood the hype about Andre 3000, but Im very aware ppl consider him one of the best rappers. Ive seen numerous other rappers ...praise him and im like "huh?" but then again ive never been big on outkast like that to study him exclusively 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janetDAYZ Posted November 22, 2015 Author Share Posted November 22, 2015 In my opinion the greatest rapper is The Game aka MeatPrint Papi funny u say that cus he is one of my 3 fav rappers. Pac, Game and Drake are my favs. I rarely hear anyone praise The Game but i use to bump his first album like crazy. But i mos def wouldnt say he's the best but I love rappers that "speak to me" ..like i hear him clearly and his tone is distinctive and he's one of the few that sounds like that. Thats why i love Drake and Pac for the same reason. Other rappers sound all muffled with a mix of gibberish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellll noAndre should be higher tbh. Billboard is trolling leaving out Mr. Shakur...they know exactly what they are doing and people are giving them the reaction they wanted.Truth & TruthThat is all he is known for. Im gonna need you to do some research boo . Andre has always been a lyricist and a rappers rapper. I'm sayinbars for days...whew else?! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSS The answer, nobody. This song & songs like this is why he's on the list.them metaphors probably flew right over your head I thought the same thing LOL, I've turned people on to Andre using that creative honest slayage. The man though Boi is creative & original too, but Andre more so ever snce the Aquemini album has been brilliant with getting Hip Hop outside of a specific look and sound and advancing it in many ways the other 9 listed and many that aren't & should be haven't. He's easily 1 of the musical greats of his time. THE LOVE BELOW ALONNNE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> It is a crime that he didn't do a real solo album yet and really give more of that.My favorite rappers are usually like Andre and really outside of the box in the relm of creativity and artistry, that can reach and speak to me louder than just their words or voices sometimes Edited November 24, 2015 by jarrylf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSimba Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Any top 10 list missing 2Pac and Common is no friend of mine lol 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
