1.) Jay-Z 1.) Nas 1.) 2-pac

I can't decide between those 3. so its a tie for me.

2.) Eminem(based on talent)
3.) Method Man(I'm biased, but I think Meth is one of the most talented Mcs of all time)
4.) Ghostface Killah
5.) B.I.G.(based on talent)

I want to clear a few things up by his list. This is MY greatest list, so its how I feel at the moment looking back at my 10 years of listening to hip hop...who to ME are the greatest rappers. I know this list is not politically correct. And I'm not focusing soley on lyrics...cuz if I was, I understand their are better lyricists than Meth, Ghost and 2-pac(ex. Rakim, KRS). But I do not value lyricism as much as some. I'll take flow/charisma over lyrics anyday of the week. In a nut shell my list are the rappers I feel are the most talented that I've listened to. But not most talented lyrically, just most talented in general. Also, my list is biased by my tastes and dislikes. So it is what it is....

**also if I was going by discographys...obviously Meth, Eminem and B.I.G. would not be in that top 5. Its all what you value**

^ Its tuff to say. For me Jay-Z is the best, but sometimes I don't feel right saying that because 2-pac and Nas also seem right.
