slick rick
lloyd banks
August 21st, 2007 at 6:16 pm
Please replace wayne with someone like talib kweli, mos def, people that are hot lyrically and are acutually saying something that makes sense when they rap. People continue to make Wayne bigger than what he is.
But all the other artists I agree with 100%.
August 21st, 2007 at 6:17 pm
1- big pun this nigga is thee most overrated ever
2-eminem- one of if not thee best lyrcist ever
3-big l -again forgotten hov bites ls dick constantly n bites multis from him
4-biggie-a great lyrcist real vivid wit it wotdplay was sick
5-nas or jada(hard to pick)-like it or not due to his inconsisensy he stil came correct alot
pac is not A GREAT LYRCIST SO I DONT EVEN WANNA HEAR IT hov is somewere on the list ill give him top 10 jadakiss is 6 if not 5 this nigga is nutso wit the lyrics
August 21st, 2007 at 6:19 pm
NY niggas think jay is God so i can see how he came him in at first but i honestly think nas should be first and kanye over Em, at just some bullshit.
August 21st, 2007 at 6:21 pm
Keywords being:-”In da game right” & lyricist right?? Well for my 2cents….Nas, Eminem, Jigga, Luda, 50..n a shout out ta Andre 3$tack$, 1.
August 21st, 2007 at 6:24 pm
I wouldn’t say Kanye is a better lyricist than Em, I mean who else could hold a candle to jay besides nas? My top 5 is def Jigga, Em, Nas, Biggie, Pac, in that order, wit Fabo def movin on up the list, Kanye maybe in the top ten, but certainly not top 5, and as far as lil wayne goes, yea he has his moments, “Im so cool even I wanna be me/”, but in the words of jay, “at least keep it consistent/”, he aint top ten till he has something to compare to reasonable doubt, Illmatic, or the Marshall Mathers l.p.

^MTV’s not behind this one, people who visit the site daily voted and these are the results.
August 21st, 2007 at 6:26 pm
1. Nas
2. Tu-Pac
3. B.I.G
4. Mos Def
5. Emenim
Jay is a buisness genius but as far as lyrics, money cant buy that, Kanye is good but not great, Lil wayne?!? WTF its disrespectfull to have that nigga in the same page as the rest of them.
August 21st, 2007 at 6:26 pm
Also for honorable mention, Blackthought, common, and mos def, wit lupe fiasco destined to carve out his place among the G.O.A.T.
August 21st, 2007 at 6:26 pm
Co-signs with Jay number one
August 21st, 2007 at 6:27 pm
How the fuck is lil wayne thrid, why is he before eminem, and why is kanye before eminem…the rest i agree with (maybe nas before jay…), really lil wayne shouldnt be on this list, eminem should be higher and kanye shouldnt be before him:
1.Nas
2.Jay
3.Eminem
4.Rakim
5.Kanye
IMO
August 21st, 2007 at 6:27 pm

August 21st, 2007 at 6:28 pm
forgot about pac….so its:
1.Nas
2.Pac
3.Eminem
4.Rakim
5.Common
August 21st, 2007 at 6:28 pm
wayne should not be there and kanye and jay-z should be like 3rd the only reason why he up there is because he’s old in rap
August 21st, 2007 at 6:31 pm
the fact that kanye on the list goes to show people really just dont listen to music… i mean this is the guy who says that a pop artist is his biggest competition…. yea thats wat hip hop needs right now
August 21st, 2007 at 6:32 pm

August 21st, 2007 at 6:41 pm
33. your whole entire list is a god damn joke…except jay-z maybe…Ti, Mike Jones & Yeezy on TOP LYRICIST (They hot at best, not greatest lyricists homie, sorry)
you insult hip hop…lil wayne greatest raper alive, how can you be the greatest rapper alive when you spit random raps and mix em like you mix fruits or some shit, when you have like 50 different topics on one single song, talking about nothing but crap
August 21st, 2007 at 6:41 pm
What about Mos Def, Black Thought, Talib, Tupac, I could go on further. I agree with jay and nas but how in the hell did Lil wayne make this list. LL deserve to be on this list more than wayne.
August 21st, 2007 at 6:42 pm
38. i dont think cassidy and lil wayne should go there…you missing eminem there…50 maybe back on GRODT…what about Talib Kweli instead of wayne and eminem instead of cassidy (not even on my order but its certainly better…wayne should not be on that list)
August 21st, 2007 at 6:43 pm
Thought This Was Top 5 Lyricist? Jay Is A Great Song Writer Used 2 B A Great Lyricist, He Still Shines Every Now N Then He Still Top 10, But Eminem Is Crazy Wit Da Lyrics, N Im Not Even A Fan..

August 21st, 2007 at 6:54 pm

3.TUPAC
4.KRS-ONE
5.RAKIM
6.EMINEM
7. JAY-Z

Its a goddamn shame….
August 21st, 2007 at 7:04 pm
I think Clark mean Lyricists that are currently in the game.
but if not then we can add Kool G Rap, Rakim, Tupac.
August 21st, 2007 at 7:04 pm
Like I Said Im Not A Eminem Fan I Just Respect Em As A Mc, U Talkin Bout Royce Got Em On A Song? Royce Brought He Agame He Had Too, Em Just Spit A Throw Away Rap 2 Even Out Da Song Or It Would B No Reason 2 Put Royce On It
August 21st, 2007 at 7:05 pm
Yo I agree 100% with the winner(Jay-Z). He is so consistent with his flow and presentation. His lyrics are always so current and relevant. U can always count on Jay to provide the lyrical content you need to get through every day experiences, from getting money, fucking bitches, getting high, and just life to the fullest. Lil wayne should not even be mentioned. here’s my list!!!!!!!!
1.Jay
2.Nas
3.Common
4.Eminem
5.Lupe Fiasco
P.S.
He said top 5 most lyrical emcees IN THA GAME(that excludes dead rappers).
August 21st, 2007 at 7:06 pm
Man, I thought for sure Em would be top 3. Dude was getting ton of votes.
August 21st, 2007 at 7:07 pm
lloyd banks
August 21st, 2007 at 7:08 pm
The list was pretty consistent…I agree although I think NAS has a little edge over HOV…but being that he is my favorite rapper…i’m all for him being #1…It’s THE ROC…
August 21st, 2007 at 7:09 pm
Anit no way in hell wayne should be on this top five list or even top10. I like wayne but come on he got punchline but not top5 lyrics. Wayne anit a better lyrics than em and I’m not an em fan. Its who lot of lyrics out that should be on here but I guess wayne made#4 b/c he “the hottest mc”. Jay-z, Nas, and Em name one of wayne albums thats better than any of thier 1st ablums.
August 21st, 2007 at 7:10 pm
Nice list I like it. To me, in my opinion, wayne could go higher if Tha Carter 3 is an excellent album and a classic.
August 21st, 2007 at 7:10 pm
Wayne was a BEAST on Drought 3 but I wanna see that kinda skill in an Album
Tha Carter 3 December 18 hopefully will be that album
August 21st, 2007 at 7:11 pm
smh @ Lil Wayne and Kanye being above Eminem…there’s a lot of douchebags on this site. That shit is just retarded. Wtf…
August 21st, 2007 at 7:13 pm
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA…..I knew this list was pure idiocy when I saw Lil Waynes name and no Andre 3000. I really respect and like Realtalk but stuff like this kind of makes me wonder about this site.
August 21st, 2007 at 7:16 pm
^^^Yeah I agree…as far as lil Wayne & West being over Eminem…that’s a stretch…
August 21st, 2007 at 7:16 pm
“Wayne was a BEAST on Drought 3 but I wanna see that kinda skill in an Album”
EMINEM WAS A BEAST BEFORE WAYNE WAS BORN,DA FUCK IS UP WITH THIS,IF WEEZY FAG BABY>EMINEM THEN SOULJA BOY>JAY-Z
CURTIS SEPT 11,AYO TECHNOLOGY IN HEAVY ROTATION,G-G-G-G-G-GUNIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
August 21st, 2007 at 7:17 pm
I could possibly be the one that’s confused, but it says “most lyrical emcee ‘in’ the game” keyword: In. Wouldn’t ‘in the game’ mean ummmm.. Lol Idk, Currently. As in a ‘Current’ participant. Lol But I could be wrong (doubtful) but if I’m not there’s a lot of non-comprehending people on here naming deceased artist, and living ones who’s careers have been dead for years. Hilarious!
August 21st, 2007 at 7:19 pm
#66 just killed yall niggas LOL!!
dudes cant read..Eminem still rappin? BIG still rappin? Tupac still recording shit?
August 21st, 2007 at 7:21 pm
Joe Budden Would Lyricaly Rape Wayne, Jada N Cass Would Put Wayne 2 Shame Too.. Im Not A Wayne Hater Tho, He Hot As An Artist But Top 5 Lyrical? I Dont Get It?
August 21st, 2007 at 7:22 pm
aight, this list is wack papoosee, cassidy and fab
August 21st, 2007 at 7:23 pm
@nessince You talk about throw away verses. When did this happend.?First off here before the big Em era. Eminem taught royce how to flow. Royce was em former hype man before he got a deal.Things kinda got sour after that but that beyond the point. Who you think was on Renegades 1st before Jay-z got outshined by Em….ROYCE. He ripped it way before then hova.No disrespect to Jay-z but he did. In this lifetime what MC that ever dissed Em that he didn’t reply to? (Don’t worry i will wait). Royce ripped him and D-12 everybody from D-12 responsed except Em. This nigga had nerve to diss everlast but didn’t reply to Royce.Who in the fuck is everlast? Em don’t even spit for the people nomore. He too busy worry about you downloading his music.Shit, why in the hell yall fans haven’t got a Em album since the presidental election (which was a market scheme).Com’on i ain’t saying Royce is suppose to be top 5 .But why put em there. He got old hits i ain’t taking that away from. Em hasn’t dropped a good album like in 5 years maybe more.Yall need to stop putting Em there like he came out with a classic yesterday.Cause honestly i don’t even think em is making music for “The Fans” anymore. Did you hear the mix tape when he was ripping yall for downloading his music. He on some metallica shit. He lost his focus, maybe when this next album comes out i will agree with you people.But until he proves that he ain’t doing this for the record sells. I’m with Royce , oh yeah and he is home the mixtape out now.Download it and buy it… just listen to it.
Ps. Nas should be number #1 cause other then kanye and lil Wayne. That is the only active artist on that list that deserves that spot. if you wanna bring ol classic look at his catalog.One more thing how in the hell you gonna say Kanye west is better than Hova.All i’m going to say is … REASONABLE DOUBT AND THE BLUEPRINT.
August 21st, 2007 at 7:26 pm

Sounds good but it should be Em 3rd then lil wanye and Kanye. But first two is right.
August 21st, 2007 at 7:41 pm
#66
Eminem may be on the sidelines right now…but any hip hop artist that is in the top 10 list of hip hop money makers this year are “in” the “game” to me IMO. Eminem topped the list, meaning he got his foot halfway in the door, AND HE WAS FEATURED ON A COUPLE OF SINGLES WITH 50 AND AKON IN LATE 2006, which was around the same time HOV and NAS dropped their singles….and that sounds pretty current to me…
…And, My comprehension skills are just fine…so maybe you SHOULD be doubtful, boo…lol
August 21st, 2007 at 7:43 pm
oh shout out to da underground too!.. Black Thought, Pharoah Monche,Immortal Technique, Kool Keith, Aceyalone..will give any one ya’lls top 5’s a run for dey $$$$…war!
August 21st, 2007 at 7:43 pm
WHERE IS 50 WHERE IS CURTIS-i’m glad to see he’s not here but be carefull u might be the topic on his next diss record, i meant next record ,every record is a diss record.
FOR ALL THOSE WHO HAVE QUESTION BOUT THE LIST OR COMMENTS OR ARENT HAPPY WIT IT AND DISPUTE WHERE YOUR FAVORITE RAPPER IS, I’LL LEAVE U WIT A QUOTE FROM YOUNG HOV.
“PULL YOUR CD’S OUT, LETS GO SONG FOR SONG/ I’M THE ILLEST NIGGA DOIN THIS TILL U PROVE ME WRONG!”
August 21st, 2007 at 7:45 pm
this list required the top emcees not the hottest in the game…yea EM hasnt been in the game for 2 yrs (re up doesnt count) and ENcore was lackluster but it was still better than most of the shit people release. On his worst day hes still better. And please, please, please was any of Kanye or waynes albums better than EM’s Marshall Mathers LP and Eminem Show, fuck it even slim shady lp. EM provides depth, something that wayne lacks and and Em provides beastly and raw lyrics, something what ye lacks…WHAT THE FUCK
August 21st, 2007 at 7:46 pm
LIL WAYNE 3 ARE YOU KIDDING ME. ANDRE 300 WOULD KILL HIM. AND IS LIL WAYNE WRITING HIS OWN SHIT OR IS HE STILL GETTING HELP FROM HIS CAMP. AND EMINEM IS LAST COME ON YOU PUT WEST OVER HIM. THIS IS A SAD DAY FOR HIP HOP
August 21st, 2007 at 7:48 pm
@crazy. I Dont Blame Em 4 Not Rapin No More He Eatin Off 50, But N E Way I Know All Bout Da Royce N Em Situation, He Aint Come At Royce Cause They Were Friends Royce Was Da Bitter 1 He Had Sum Shit 2 Get Off His Chest Em Aint Have A Prob. Besides Em Goin At Royce Is Like Jay Goin At Bleek, 4 What, He Get $ Royce Dont, Dat Rest Of Them D12 Dudes Went In Cause They Not Hot Themselves So They Made Diss Tracks Hopin Sum1 Would Care N Pay Attention. Em N Royce Cool Now N E Way
August 21st, 2007 at 7:51 pm
this is why people say hip hop is fuckin dead…im cool wit ye and shit but when i think hip hop, i think raw emcess…all the old school cats and niggas like Rakim, BIG, Nas, Pac, WU, 3 stacks, Jigga, EMINEM…when it comes to Kanye hes more of a universal artist that makes more than rap music…for cripes sake listen to stronger….
August 21st, 2007 at 7:51 pm
yall are crazy on this site i see alot of people dont listen to music yall just skim through it huh heres my list and i list to music fo real tell me what yall think
1.nas
2.jay-z (just think he makes songs up in his head)
3.eminem
4.common
5.joe buddens(just listen to mood music 2 or his first album minus the radio songs these are songs with concepts real rap not making up lines like little wayne)
honorable mention andre 3000 he maybe could be higher but sometimes hes bugged out
August 21st, 2007 at 7:54 pm
^^^^….ummmmm, What are tou talking about, Eminem also released “smack that” with AKON, which was a one of the biggest hits within the year BY FAR…EM made the song what it was…and if he could pull that off…I do consider him in the game and the fact that he is on the list, means that he is current enough…
August 21st, 2007 at 7:56 pm

August 21st, 2007 at 7:57 pm
this nigga #19 said slick rick…wtf? since when is slick rick still relevant? cockface…
August 21st, 2007 at 7:57 pm
it shouldnt even go pass the big 3, nas/em/jay
Jay-makes songs from the top
Nas-made a fuckin song backwards, come on
EMinem- said…
you’ve just triggered a prick who just mixed liquor/whose itching to leave u disfigured and stiffer than christopher/-reeves/ i was teethin wit strep throat while ya mother was breast feedin and gave her the flesh eating disease/whose iller than takin a hammer and bleedin in knees/and walkin thru the south central la bleeding in jeans/flashin back to being shot and repeated the scenes on how u just got smoked/and if u do live youll be too scared to tell it, like a biggie and pac joke/
August 21st, 2007 at 7:59 pm
Most of You Guys didn’t even answer the question correctly. The question is the top 5 best lyricists in the game NOW, not the hottest 5 and not top 5 of all-time. Meaning best 5 RIGHT NOW!!! My best 5 RIGHT NOW, not in this order wil be:
1)Jadakiss
2)Styles P
3)Eminem
4)Ludacris
5)Beanie Sigel
And by the way, my top 5 lyricists of ALL-TIME is
1)BIG
2)Jay
3)Kiss
4)Nas
5)Big L
No one out there can FUCK with my list. All of yall lists looks stupid compared to mine. Yall don’t know about rap! Some of u got BIG, PAC, Big L n shit like that in ur lists. Those r people u would pick if its best MC’s of ALL-TIME, unfortunately, those legends have been dead 4 a while now, so they cant be best in the game NOW. Jay’s a legend, and is probably done with rap, he’s more of an entrepreneur now than a rapper. And Nas has fell off the map drastically from what he used to be. His last 2 releases prove my point. Scream At Me!!!!! D-Block, 2 Gunz Up!!!
August 21st, 2007 at 8:00 pm
Mi Mi, you just made yourself look like a complete idiot. LMFAO
You’re defending your comprehensive skills when they weren’t questioned.
You’re saying I should be doubtful for pointing the obvious? LOL
And you making an argument about Eminem as if I excluded him or mentioned him at all. And for the record I would consider him Current, child.
You truly should work on YOUR comprehension skills cause you didn’t comprehend anything that I typed. In an attempt to make yourself look smart you did the opposite
August 21st, 2007 at 8:01 pm
maaaaan i might have to switch to someother web site speacially u put ye and weezle before Em thats just fuckin ridiculous to me but its your site do what you want but i have to disagree on this one
August 21st, 2007 at 8:01 pm
lloyd banks is mad underrated he may not be top 5 but dude can spit yo
August 21st, 2007 at 8:07 pm
The dumb get dumber. LOL This sites and the posters are always good for a laugh.
Yeah, Biggie’s the best lyricist in the game right now. That new song he has out that premiered on Hot97 2days ago is hot. All his 2007 freestyle are amazing. Yeah, Biggie’s number 1. smh
Lets see how many dummies misconstrue that. LOL
August 21st, 2007 at 8:08 pm
Joe Budden anyone?
August 21st, 2007 at 8:09 pm
i think with real hip hop purists, his album is more anticipated than lil wayne.
shoot, his mixtape is more anticipated than wayne’s album.
who’s coppin that mood muzik 3?
August 21st, 2007 at 8:11 pm
i co-sign lloyd banks. not top five but he’s nice.
i think eminem deserves #2 spot. who remembers how he ate Jay Z’s food …on HIS SONG??!!!
Renegades for you slow mofos
August 21st, 2007 at 8:12 pm
the list is aiight. but not accurate. its 2 many legends that could be placed in the category….:big daddy kane,rakim, snoop, too short, the d.o.c.(who made a classic). I could go on and on…east to west…but the list is for current emcees/rappers… so they put lil wayne up cuz it wasn’t a south artist wit his punch lines. bring out a poll for the real emcees no rappers on it. nas # 1 hands down…
August 21st, 2007 at 8:16 pm
punk royal
In no way am I an IDIOT. I just misinterpretted what you stated due to #67’s statement…egging it on…that’s all. It was just one big misunderstanding (there is a difference)…and out of modesty I will apologize and admit to the misunderstanding…but ONLY due to you not specifying your statement which was soon followed by #67’s statement thereafter…I’m sure you can see the confusion in that.
August 21st, 2007 at 8:19 pm
i dont wanna sound like a typical em fan but have u not heard em murder jay on renegades and rap circles round big on dead wrong
August 21st, 2007 at 8:21 pm
yo lyrically hip hop is dead man…u dont hear new shit from jay and nas anymore…eminem retired…lil wayne aiight jus tired of hearing da ni99a he sound the same on every track he need switch his style up sometimes but i am tired of hearing that ni99a on every track!!!…..kanye west is hot…he be spitting 4 real ni99as need to listen to him….out of all da rappers out now kanye is da only one spitting and be different bout shit not sounding like everybody else
August 21st, 2007 at 8:23 pm
Yes Yes I Did Mention Joe Budden A Couple Times, He Was In My Top 5, When I Heard Dat Freestyle On Green Lantern Sirus Invasion Mixtape Dat Did It 4 Me, He Went In 4 Like 5min Straiht, If U Aint Heard U Missed A Classic Freestylego Download Dat N Come Back.
August 21st, 2007 at 8:25 pm
@ Cream….i hear you. Kanye IS different and the game needs him on a few different levels. personally, he’s not an MC to me; maybe becuz he came in the game as a producer and I kinda look at him as a dude he takes a long time to come up wit the ish he’s saying and it doesn’t flow naturally. maybe that’s just me, iunno.
you know the funny part? my girl got tickets for his show here in Oct and i’m lookin forward to it cuz he does rock his shows.
August 21st, 2007 at 8:25 pm
are u serious main steam rap is so obvious 1)easily is eminem 2)2pac 3)big L 4) Rakim 5)Fiasco wayne is tight but but he barley started 2 blow up like 4 yrs ago my list been killing 4 many decades
August 21st, 2007 at 8:26 pm
@ 100 ….i missed that one but i’m gonna download it now.
gotta love the internet
August 21st, 2007 at 8:27 pm
what the fuck, i thought this was bout who was the best lyricist, not who spit the realest shit……THERES A HUGE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THOSE 2 U FUCKIN FOOLS…..if this list was bout spittin real shit, pac shoulda been number 1…kanye doesnt deserve to be up there cuz hes not that great of a lyricist….ya he does spit some real shit that u can relate to but as a lyricist he aint shit…..and neither is lil wayne, u fuckin dickryders….
August 21st, 2007 at 8:27 pm
Wheres 50?
August 21st, 2007 at 8:32 pm

August 21st, 2007 at 8:53 pm
Realtalk is a marketing genius like 50. This bogus list was created just to stir up a buzz and have people going back and forth like this. I knew it was fake once I saw Wayne up there. Good work homie, get that money/

August 21st, 2007 at 8:56 pm
What money? People don’t pay to join this site. You acting like there is a money order/Credit requirement to join here. This just a blog maybe the buzz will bring other sponsors though if that what you are saying.

@Nessnice Whoa how you gonna compare Royce to bleek?I understand him and royce was friends and royce went nuts for two years. But Hell no he ain’t no fucking bleek.Seriously take that back LOL.Eminem never wrote Royce lyrics. Bleek never had a Five Mic album…Royce did (Death is Certain).I heard a little different I heard there is no beef. But they still ain’t kool like they used to be.Which is a god damn shame Em fucking with wack niggas like cashis now… that another convo.
August 21st, 2007 at 9:21 pm
kanye all day
August 21st, 2007 at 9:28 pm
crazy. your the dumbest nigga ever u dont know shit bout eminem or anything. royce didnt even diss em like that. by the way em did get back at royce on that dj DJ Green Lantern freestyle. nigga. and they fucked up his friend in a club
August 21st, 2007 at 9:41 pm
eminem is better then 98 percent of the rappers out there kanye west man he’s nice but he aint better then eminem man lil wayne hes a swagger jacker. kanye west he cant shine eminem shoes whne it comes to rapping. yo how ever runs this site need to do something quick before they get blamed for killing whats left of hip hop
August 21st, 2007 at 9:54 pm
get kanye west out the list man
August 21st, 2007 at 9:57 pm
this isnt about rappers in general
but lyrics specifically
which means your throwing around names like nas, lupe, talib, common
jay Z is my favourite rapper and in my opinon the best but you cannot say hes the best lyricist he got to his position because of his flows more than his lyrics
in my opinion Lupe should be at the top of the list listen to The Cool or American Terrorist Nas should be in there as well, common, jay might make the top 5 but hes not number one
thers a difference between a rapper and a lyricist
August 21st, 2007 at 10:22 pm
to no.112 aka crazy. I was talking bout as far as sponsors, if you haven’t noticed this isnt just a blog anymore, look at your address bar and you will notice realtalkny.rawkus.com. They just signed a deal with Rawkus so now he needs traffic to come to the site and that means more $$$$$$$$$. What better way to generate traffic than A LIST. Not just a list but a list so out of wack that everyone has to chime in. MO MONEY MO MONEY MO MONEY
August 21st, 2007 at 10:28 pm

August 21st, 2007 at 11:05 pm

August 21st, 2007 at 11:10 pm
Go to allhiphop.com , they write that Nas said to the Source, that he and jay brings together a album!!!! Nah can´t believe that one!!!!
I read when Beyonce has a afterparty in Toronto, she tells the DJ´s not to play Rihannas music!!!!!
August 21st, 2007 at 11:10 pm
Bigjay go suck a BIGDICK. I shouldn’t even be replying to this. You watching the beef DVDs too much you little niglet.”Death is Certain” is all about Em.Damn real talk should start charging niggas to get on here and give niggas a IQ test. Every time a fucking punks disagree with someone. They don’t got the nerve to say it like a mature adult. You always get some wise ass little internet weirdo running his/her mouth like they are hard. Nigga pop a midol,clam your nerves and think before you speak.

August 21st, 2007 at 11:47 pm
Smh @ people disregarding Joe Budden, he would be in the argument right now.
See “Mood Muzik 2″…
I know Top 3 would be Jay, Nas, and Em (Em’s #1 in my book, but I’m a bit bias because I’m from Detroit). Andre 3000 and Joe Budden would round out the rest. Ain’t none of these younger dudes fuckin with Budden other than Lupe. Everybody else is kinda…eh…
August 21st, 2007 at 11:54 pm
lol jay z steals biggies lyrics so thats wack and wheres fab and em should be top 2 if not number 1

August 22nd, 2007 at 1:41 am
And this is how the rest of America keeps you dumb mutafukkas busy arguing over who is number 1 while your rights are slowing being taken away. No other race of people does this ignorant shit!
August 22nd, 2007 at 1:52 am
133.. damn dude we cant all be ultra fuckin militant 24/7 like you.. chill out homie its just conversation… and yes… all races have CONVERSATIONS about shit other than how evil america is

2# Pac
August 22nd, 2007 at 2:31 am
hahaah..
wheres Biggie?
u people dont know shit about hiphop if he’s not on your top 5.. especially if he’s not ahead of Kanye.
and ESPECIALLY NOT if he’s not ahead of LIL WAYNE????? wtf???
and nas is alot better of a lyricist than jay z, althought jay z has a better flow and alot of other things.. but come on..
August 22nd, 2007 at 3:07 am
Top lyricists in the game alive:
1. Jay-Z
2. Nas
3. Common
4. Talib Kweli
5. Mos Def
Ur list is a joke
August 22nd, 2007 at 3:17 am
forget about the order. REALTALK you’re telling me lil wayne and kanye are better lyricist than black thought????? not to mention common. cmon we’re talkin lyrics not popular thugs.
August 22nd, 2007 at 3:44 am
kanye west a better lyricist than eminem???? As a matter of fact eminem killed jay z on his own album (blueprint), this list is racist and biased towards the east coast!
August 22nd, 2007 at 4:32 am
What in the fuck is wrong with this list how the fuck is lil wayne n kanye on there and common don’t belong so stop crying he not nice likle that
Since when stupid lines became good lyrics to niggaz lil wayne says dumb shit and knaye too but its hot but not lyrics com on now wezzy b4 em smh if weezy is on any list juelz has to be b4 him cuz he raps like santana and dress everything he lil baby juelz
August 22nd, 2007 at 4:34 am
listen you young fucks nas jay z rakim the god eminem biggie black thought from the roots do your fucking homework
August 22nd, 2007 at 4:45 am
Dogs, what happen to Jada????
August 22nd, 2007 at 4:51 am
I think that Tupak and J-z Big Li Wayne LL Miss Elit are one of the best rapper out now if you have a problem with that you dont know .
August 22nd, 2007 at 4:54 am
i have to agree with quite a few people. We are talking about lyricists, not who’s hot. Cats dont give Em enough credit, why because he’s a white boy? I hope thats not the case. But we have to remember that there are alot of youngens on here that grew up on this new age shit. i like the list somewhat. Im a wayne fan, but i wouldnt put him in my top 5.
August 22nd, 2007 at 4:57 am
Missy? i guess i dont know shit then #143 she is wack hell.
otherwise, for the most part, this shit is just a matter of opinion.
August 22nd, 2007 at 5:09 am
how the hell is some people gonna say Em is better than Jay coz most of his lyrics are serial killer minded. Now dont get me wrong Em is one of the greatest but he cant be on Jay Z’s level n i dont give a fuck how many white boiz r here. Renegade was Em’s track that he gave to Jay , n its not like he killed Jay like most yall think , Jigga was rappin soe deep shit in that n because Em sounded more mad n phsycho dont mean he murderd Jay. Yall need to stop hating on Jigga n please respect the game. Jigga been lyrical since early 90s till today.
August 22nd, 2007 at 5:09 am
I agree with #129. Anybody putting Curtis on their list is a fuggin fool….this nigga cant even open his mouth let alone spit be consider a good emcee. You can even understand what this nukka be saying….Game over Curtis any day ! Curtis it’s definitely a hot summer for ya huh????
August 22nd, 2007 at 5:16 am
here is the genuine list of my TOP 5 currently
5 Fabolous
4 Lil Wayne
3 Common
2 Nas
1 JAY-Z ( no one can do it better )

August 22nd, 2007 at 5:26 am
Eminem is not even active, he might of desirved 5 if we was talking of all time
August 22nd, 2007 at 5:30 am

1.BIG PUN
2.BIG L
3.NaS
4.Cool G Rap
5.Eminem
anyone who think 50 or wayne, or even kanye is should have been up is on some real bullshit
August 22nd, 2007 at 5:47 am
when did wayne or knaye become lyrical?…i swear this pop rap shit got niggas confused eminmem would crush weezy and kanye and its a least 30-50 more niggas that waaay more lyrical than weezy and kanye. if this was mtv most popular list then ok they can be on there but as far as skillz these niggas is lacking….fucking pop tart teenie bopper niggas

August 22nd, 2007 at 6:48 am
yall get the fuck outta here with lil wayne being one of the best. becuz he drop a million songs on mixtapes and puts words together nice does not mean he is one of the best. like pha real nigga like jay nas n em they tell stories lil wayne is just be nice with the words like “one name mac the other name rina put um together they hit u n make u do the macarina” thats a ill line but we talking about actually songs that dig deep down in our soul. lil wayne will neva achieve that shit nor fab. Kanye west can’t tell me nuthin makes u look in ur soul like wtf that shit he is talking is the truth. i swear i relate to kanye more than any other rapper i love jay’s music but lyric wise i relate more to kanye, cuz he has this realness cuz he aint talkin about coke and keys n shit he talkin about his story. lil wayne just recently flip the script n startin talkin that shit just like wud clipse said.Em talks a bunch of shit when he is ready yall need to get the fuck outta here. em came into this game actin the clown. In Search of… by the neptunes is a classic album
1. Jay-Z
2. Lupe
3. Kanye
4. Pharell
5. Nas
August 22nd, 2007 at 7:03 am
Feed back,So deep in the game a fiend can catch a freeze off my kneecap, can ya believe that. Thats Hov. For niggas who say Em corny listen to his lyrics and his flow on Impatiently Waitin. Nas of course just listen to some tracks when he was on the Firm. Fab need to be on there. And Common definately need to recognized. I can’t believe some nigga up top of the comments but hurricane chris and yung joc. Thats exactly wat Havoc was talkin bout. South niggas suckin on each other’s dick.lol

“Who made up this stupid list? Is MTV behind this again? How can u put jay b4 nas? and what the fuck is lil wayne doing there!!?”
^MTV’s not behind this one, people who visit the site daily voted and these are the results.
U are lying, this list is not made by the people. U made it. most of the people in here vote for nas,talib,common.. U and ur friends just decided to make a list that will help ur site to get more attention
August 22nd, 2007 at 7:24 am
niggas are out here on that crybaby shit. “who made this?” “say it aint so” “this is a marketing ploy”
god DAMN!!! I never seen so many niggas cry in my life. let you balls hang and quit trippin, its just a list.
August 22nd, 2007 at 7:31 am
whaaaaT A fuuuck ???!!!!

Lil Wayne?! Kayne?! U can’t be serious ! Bullsh*t
August 22nd, 2007 at 7:43 am
1)Jay
2)EM
3)NAS
4)3000
5)Common
There is no way that any of the younger cats can touch these guys lyrically.
August 22nd, 2007 at 7:54 am
Jay-Z is NOT the most Lyrical MC in the game!! NAS is!! Yall Sweatin Jigga because he makes catchier songs and his Swagger! You obviously havent paid attention to the albums “It was written” and “illmatic”!! Reasonal Doubt is definately a Classic album but Jay Z had major guest appearences on it and swagger jacked alot of biggie lines. Nas is THE Lyrical genius other than KOOL G RAP. Youngsters Go do your Research!
August 22nd, 2007 at 8:00 am
1.) Nas
2.) Andre 3000
3.) Lupe Fiasco
4.) Common
5.) Talib Kweli
Jay is that dude but I can’t put him in this list after hearing Kingdome Come. Now all time is a different story.

“If Lyrics sold then truth be told, I’d probably be, lyrically Talib Kweli”
or
“Truthfully, I wanna rhyme like Common Sense/I sold 5 million records, I aint been rhymin like Common since”
August 22nd, 2007 at 8:33 am

no way…the list is ok expect kanye why do yall think hes all that? no trying 50 is better cuz Im a g unit fan but wtf? Kanye aint spitting no real shit…I dont understand
August 22nd, 2007 at 9:04 am
listen you can’t argue about taste! we could keep making lists til eternity. let’s just agree that this best rapper alive list is more or less alright- it coulda been worse.. (although Wayne really don’t need to be on there but Common should be on there, lol) Jay gotta be at the top, no doubt.. everything after that will just cause more and more controversity. so no more lists please!
hmm btw.. no matter who came up with such a list until now was a hip hop head .. from mtv to realtalk to vibe mag and all the other mags.. Alright, listen! We need more people! People who are not hip hop heads only! If Harvard Professors can analyse and rate Shakespeare and Goethe they should be able to do similar with rappers!
Of course when u ask an 80 year old white professor he’d bash all of them black ppl rhyming about money, cash, hoes.. but besides all of that - he’d be able to look at wordplay, style of rhyme, techniques used, etc..
Ask a group of ppl that should know their onions and let them analyse this shit.
anapest, litotes, caesura, sestina styles..
shit I have little knowledge of but is essential to analyse a good rhyme.
lol alright my idea sounds wack as fuck..
but dammit if we add our knowledge of what a good MC is and compare it to
the findings of their analysis we could come a bit closer to the truth.
everybody and their mother came up with a list!
let them come up with one too!
alright they’d need a hood encyclopedia or something..
Shit, some of my mofos need to tell em what a pie is!
aight, REALTALK ! are u reading this!??!? Dammit read the comments on your own damn blog!
I am serious about this! Let’s organize such a thing.. let’s give it to the young that have no idea about the beauty of a rhyme! let’s give it to the world to cause even more controversity!
motherfugga I’m serious!
email my ass! I ma start creating a website for this corny ish now. and I need some help! any volunteers in tha house?
August 22nd, 2007 at 9:24 am
roc la familia bitches
August 22nd, 2007 at 9:31 am
no jada? fucking kanye and lil wayne more lyrical than eminem?…is this shit serious? i have no problem with 1 and 2 in that order but em has to be 3rd he could kill hov and nas too but you give it to them 2 cause of longevity and consistency
August 22nd, 2007 at 9:38 am

August 22nd, 2007 at 10:30 am
I wish people stop saying jayz is the best because he is not! He stole so many lines from biggie and snoop shit he is so old!
August 22nd, 2007 at 10:33 am
co-sign Joe Budden has to be there..
August 22nd, 2007 at 11:01 am
who spit better than cassidy
August 22nd, 2007 at 11:19 am
jay, nas and SHady are top on the list and should be…EM is number 1 and im from new york….Em, EM, EM
August 22nd, 2007 at 11:24 am
another thing why i believe jay and nas are considered in front of eminem is because jay represents hip hop more…theres no better love than at a jay-z concert. Nas is one of those raw street emcess that seems to be poetic (sometimes too much)…And EM who if he had beef with any of them would probably eat them up if they had beef (nas would be a problem)..but of course theres always the factor that hes white and even tho niggas look past that, its still there and obvious.
August 22nd, 2007 at 11:27 am
thats who u want representin ure site? that shits just embarassing illmatic is mad old thats the only decent album nas ever had and same thing with hov it hurts to listen to him now eminem? he hasnt made shit in forever, and when he does he just bitches about gettin beat up in the 8th grade by some bully nice mc list fo real
i know cam ended up with enough votes to make this list but realtalk is soft like terry cloth
August 22nd, 2007 at 11:28 am
ya need to jump off lil wayne’s dick the niggas hot rite now but damn the top 5 lyricist tats a fuckin sin. what about common styles p, and etc…. i know for a fact other ppl should b4 lil wayne. I like wanye but yall ben takin this shit to far ppl r not fans anymore jus fuckin groupies…
August 22nd, 2007 at 11:29 am
kanye’s a producer hes not an mc luis vuitton don enough said
August 22nd, 2007 at 11:38 am
werea immortal technique?
August 22nd, 2007 at 11:39 am
lebron im not just pointing u out on this, but why is it when it comes to eminem people always say all he talks about is this….he doesnt just talk about that. All ur hearing is shit from someone else and maybe a single. He had 3 whole songs dedicated to Kim and ONE whole song about his mom. Im not naming them cuz i dont need to, do that for urself. He does throw in miscallaneous lines here and there about kim, debbie, hailie but thats his fuckin life. Its like Jay always throwing in how hes a hustla now and there. we all know EM wasnt that. He raps about his life, he gives u something real and not fabricated. And when he does fabricate he paints the picture in ur head so easily..
August 22nd, 2007 at 11:44 am
nas killed jigga on either
August 22nd, 2007 at 11:46 am
@176 go kill yo self u illiterate muthafucka u a waste of skin
August 22nd, 2007 at 11:50 am
Aye realtalkny you shouldve posted up how many votes each rapper got to shut these bitches up!
August 22nd, 2007 at 11:53 am

August 22nd, 2007 at 12:00 pm
one question. WHERE THE FUCK IS CANIBUS???
i really wanna know who the hell is makin these lists…lil’ wayne before eminem?
August 22nd, 2007 at 12:01 pm
how is Fabolous not up there..?! thats all i wanna know…. way more lyrical than Kanye and Wayne….
August 22nd, 2007 at 12:07 pm
take jay-z and nas off..they had there time.
ludacris and fabolous should be on that list
August 22nd, 2007 at 12:08 pm
yeah i second that fabs and cam 2 best mc’s out dont even make the list shit is wack one of their verses crushes everything callvin klein i mean jayz has said in last 8 years and everythign nas has ever said

4.nas
3.Kanye
2.Fab
1. Jay-z
August 22nd, 2007 at 1:37 pm
No Big, 2Pac or Big L? What, once you’re killed you don’t matter no more?
The list was top lyricists. not rhymers. What’s Em doing there? He’s a real nice rhymer, skillful, great at battles, but he does not top at least 20 others, like BIG, Tupac, Big L, Rakim, Talib, Common, Big Daddy Kane, Buckshot, KRS, Ghostface, Immortal Technique, Jadakiss, Jean Grae, Lauryn Hill, Prodigy, Raekwon, Black Thought, Slick Rick, Brother J, even Papoose. Is that 20 yet? lol
And Jay hasn’t done anything super lyrical since Blueprint or even reasonable Doubt. kingdom Come was dope? Pleeeeeeease!
Superugly was nicer than Ether? lolololol
This is some commercial BS. Next thing there’ll be Wayne, Jay, 50, Shop Boyz and Mims on it.
People, wake the f up. You’re killing whatever’s left of Hip Hop. Real Talk, props to you for hard work, you’re only giving people what they want, but damn, who’ll stand up for real Hip Hop? Chuck D is not the ambassador of Hip Hop. He’s as real as it gets but he’s always been scandalous. KRS is not a good Teacha, he is too in love with himself.
We, the people, need to make that stand! Before Viacom buys the patent on the very name of Hip Hop. Then if you’re got no MTV subscription you won’t even be allowed to say Hip Hop without paying a fee.
Nas had a point, Hip Hop is just about dead, he just had to break it down for you all, so he sells some albums. The truth is this list is just a small part of what is killing it.
It’s always sad to see ignorance.
August 22nd, 2007 at 1:38 pm

August 22nd, 2007 at 2:07 pm
Who the fucked voted for Lil Wayne ? I would have Nas & Eminem before Jay-Z Kanye wouldn’t get onto my list Lil Wayne wouldn’t even touch the sheet.
@ Dmitriy you say Eminem shouldn’t be there but you put Papoose in there ? Smh, if hiphop is dead Dmitriy what music do you listen to ? how can you say Eminem doesn’t get past 20 other listen to Marshall Mather LP & The Eminem Show & then say that . Tupac & Biggie were good but if they never died people wouldn’t rate them as highly IMO.
August 22nd, 2007 at 2:56 pm
lil’ wayne spits madd fire, but he ain’t top 5 ..yet… FUCK KANYE ..they shoulda kept his jaw wired shut.
1. Em
2. Andre
3. Busta
4. Prodigy
5. IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE
August 22nd, 2007 at 2:56 pm
theres no hope for hip hop. if those are the top 5 lyricists then no one knows what lyrics are anymore and you might as well have Beyoncé up there.
Em, but not Royce?
Jay-Z, but not Skills?
Lil Wayne?!? and you never heard of Crooked I, huh?
Kanye and not Talib Kweli?
and Nas is number 2?!
if folks like clowns so much why dont they just stay goin to the circus?
Beyoncé #1 Lyricist stoopid!
August 22nd, 2007 at 4:02 pm
