<p>Lupe-Love his lyrics and the flow he’s got.
Kanye-Best beats in a long time, but I only really like the rapping of Blame Game and Heartless. Most of the other stuff isn’t too fun to listen to.
Ice Cube-Great rapper, and a classic.
Kid Cudi-He’s my favorite current Hip-Hop artist, but he doesn’t really seem to be a rapper, like Lupe or Nas.
Nas-Great
Wu Tang Clan-Great Rappers, beats, flow, lyrics…really unique in some respects…the samurai theme is pretty interesting.</p>
<p>MBDTF was overrated.</p>
<p>I gave it a full listen… and the tracks were bleh.</p>
<p>Good production, just not a great total product.</p>
<p>On a side note</p>
<p>Did you call MITES?</p>
<p>My country-loving ceramics teacher played The Show Goes On in class today. Not his most amazing work, but nonetheless I told her she had good taste. Haha</p>
<p>^^ Problem solved.</p>
<p>They asked for it through email.</p>
<p>You can’t just listen to it once. It grows on you big time. Whatever man, it doesn’t really matter whether or not you like it anyways.</p>
<p>Hip Hop just saved 5 lives.</p>
<p>Just learned about Immortal Technique…Dance with the Devil is both the best and most messed up song I’ve ever heard.
Thanks for turning me on to Immortal Technique…</p>
<p>“Beef and Broccoli” by Immortal Technique is funny ****.</p>
<p>Kanye- MBDTF was my favorite album last year. Killer beats, guests, and it just <em>sounded</em> good. Favorite tracks: “Runaway”, “POWER”, and “Hell of a Life”</p>
<p>Lupe- Eh. Listenable but doesn’t do much for me. My global teacher last year absolutely hated him though.</p>
<p>Cudi- My school’s obsessed with him, but I’ve gotten over his music some. Songcraft is great, and I love the beats, but 12 songs about weed are a bit much.</p>
<p>Rakim- The greatest.</p>
<p>Lupe: The Show Goes On is epic.</p>
<p>Kanye: Great lyrics, awesome rapping. And the beats are always good. Best rapper fasho.</p>
<p>Drake: He has some pretty great songs, but as a rapper he’s definitely not the best. One time I thought he was Lil Wayne, so he needs to develop his own style more. That said, he can sing! Points for that.</p>
<p>Jay-Z: All his songs are pretty much genius.</p>
<p>Eminem: His rapping style is a bit too harsh for me, but his lyrics are amazing.</p>
<p>T.I.: His songs have so much attitude; it’s awesome.</p>
<p>Cudi: My friend loves him but he’s pretty ehh to me.</p>
<p>Lupe’s album leaked, btw. It sounds a lot more mainstream than his other two.</p>
<p>Immortal Technique…Dance with the Devil </p>
<p>yeah their stuff is great.</p>
<p>T.I. saved someone’s life, as in I mean preventing a guy from jumping off a building. </p>
<p>oh. and. yeah. Lupe fiasco’s new album sounds a little two mainstream for me. I 'm not sure I like it.</p>
<p>It’s the product of the ******** that is Atlantic Records. He didn’t even want the album to be released, he just wants off his label.</p>
<p>Lasers is super mainstream. I miss the enemy of the state lupe. </p>
<p>Cudi is wack as ****, he just talsk over the beat. I guess he speaks his mind, but his mind is always on weed and how much his childhood sucked,so meh.</p>
<p>Kanye: beats and music
Lupe: great flow
Eminem: beats and background are great. Very aggressive rapper
TI: great beats and flow
LilWayne: take him in small doses
Jayz: one of the kings of rap. Great everything
Kid Cudi: new perspective on rap.</p>
<p>yeah Lasers is probably going to sell badly, because even he’s saying he hates it.</p>
<p>^^ ia, I hate Cudi. And he has a terrible personality.</p>
<p>^^I can agree with most of that lol. LASERS has not been well-received at my school, and people went crazy over Kanye’s album. Weird how much beats influence opinion…</p>
<p>^If Lasers bombs, it’d proably be easier for him to leave Atlantic then, which is a dream come true for Lupe fans lol.</p>
<p>Hov and Nas still the best rappers alive…but lupe is ill.</p>
<p>Two more days until Lasers!</p>
