Learning To Be 100

Bout !@#$@#$ time someone agrees.

I'm still loling at people saying Nelly was a Top 5 rapper. Just lol.

Just because you think it's funny doesn't make it untrue. I personally don't like Em, he's just a hit maker, who talked about beating women, and killing people. Yet people think he's a top five rapper.

Also all the albums you put down were commercials success, Country Grammar was just as successful if not more so than those albums.

I'll stop you before you say rap doesn't need to be commercial success for it to be top five. Well your top five has 5 commercially known rappers. If you want message, and content, then anyone you named would not even be top five. There are a !@#$ ton of under ground rappers, past, and present who have had better rhymes, better beats, and better messages.

So you fall into the same trap as everyone else by naming mainstream rappers. So you shouldn't be Loling someone's taste because you don't think it's top five material. Especially when you hear more Nelly in rappers now-a-days then you ever hear Pac, Nas, Biggie etcetc Hell not many even sound like Kanye.

From 2000-2010? Absolutely.

The hip/hop album that started it all was Raising Hell from RUN-DMC. Anyu top 5 without it, is just a complete and utter denial of the history from most still pubescent young adults who think NWA launched hip-hop. What a joke.

NWA helped launch gangsta rap, which is completely different from hip-hop imo

you can mix rap & hip-hop, but there are slight differences in the genres.

I wasn't really asking for the top five albums that should be the top five albums. I was trying to ask, more of, what are your top five albums. Which ones did you like the most, or which ones do you think should be top five. Because like I told Loki, there are a !@#$ ton of artist who weren't/aren't mainstream who deserve to be top five. Like Jedi would be my top ten if they were bigger, and had more of a reach.

real talk though rap from 07-2012 was pretty weak

like waka flocka had one of the best albums of 2010

Meek Mill is currently killing it I feel

Nelly doesn't objectify women?

I was talking lyricism, production, and storytelling. Which is what most rap fans usually consider when they name the Top 5 anything. Record sales don't mean anything, and it's all about how good the music is.

Not really, just because they were mainstream albums doesn't mean they weren't good. Are you seriously saying Nelly has influenced more rappers than Nas, Pac, etc? Kanye was the one who started the whole swag rap movement. Nelly was at best a hit maker.

This is a myth. Rap music and Hip-Hop music are the same thing.

You automatically lose all credibility.
