Still to this day Rap is my favorite music without question.
Top a top 10 for me has to be reflective by the evolution of rap, longevity, content and straight up flow on the mic.
A top 20 list is so subject to personal like and dislike.
Being that I don't care for most of the self indulgent rappers of today and that Crunk BS. Sorry just don't like it.
No particular order except these are top 5
Grand Master Flash and Furious 5
Beastie Boys
Run DMC
BDP/KRS 1
2 Pac
The rest of the top 20
Chuck D and PE
NWA (Dre, Cube, Eazy E, Ren, Yella etc)the origional Snoop came later.
LL Cool J
Ice T
Eric B and Rakim
Big Daddy Kane
Jay Z
Eminem
Notorious B.I.G
Snoop
DMX
Wu Tang (Method Man, Raekwon, Ghost Face Killah, ODB, RZA, GZA etc)
Kool Mo Dee
A tribe Called Quest
Geto Boys
I know no NAS, not that I don't think he was great. I think Jay Z has left him way behind. Its tough to leave Common or Busta Rhymes off this too.
