If Kendrick is number 2… then DRAKE SHOULD BE NUMBER ONE
EIGHT?
EMINEM?
YOU WAS LOST UNTIL ME
That's the chorus. The bridge is a verse Ye wrote, "Man I gotta get my soul right..."
He wrote that
If Kendrick is number 2… then DRAKE SHOULD BE NUMBER ONE
EIGHT?
EMINEM?
YOU WAS LOST UNTIL ME
KENDRICK IS THE GOAT NIGGA STOP SPEAKING ON HIS NAME UNTIL YOU ACKNOWLEDGE IT
I'm tired of the 2Pac glorification. Bro was not that good of a rapper
very stupid opinion
very stupid opinion
You genuinely believe 2Pac was a top 5 rapper of all time? be for real
You genuinely believe 2Pac was a top 5 rapper of all time? be for real
Yes nigga
You realize there are more aspects than just personal taste that go into being the GREATEST? Even though Pac is also in my personal top 5
Legacy, influence, impact, subject matter all play apart and Pac kills 99% of these rappers in these fields even if you don’t view Pac as a strong lyricist or agree w his production choices
Murder murder" my mind state, s*** ain't changed
Since my last rhyme the crime rate ain't decline
Niggas bustin' shots like they lost they mind
Like twenty-five to life never crossed they mind
Tell me young nigga never learned a thang
Dead at thirteen 'cause he yearned to bang
Sent a lot of flowers, but how could I cry
Tried to warn the little nigga either stop or die
Mercy is for the weak when I speak I scream
Afraid to sleep, I'm havin' crazy dreams
Vivid pictures of my enemies, family times
God forgive me 'cause it's wrong but I plan to die
Either take me in heaven and understand I was a sheep
Did the best I could, raised in insanity
Or send me to hell 'cause I ain't beggin' for my life
Ain't nuthin' worse than this cursed-ass hopeless life
I'm troublesome
Most rappers could never write a verse that hit me like that, that s*** was a regular day for Pac
If Kendrick is number 2… then DRAKE SHOULD BE NUMBER ONE
EIGHT?
EMINEM?
YOU WAS LOST UNTIL ME

We ain't talking about none of that. I'm talking about his ability as a rap artist, not any of the extra s***.

Well thats not the criteria for the list so why would we be talking about that itt dumbass
They didnt say he was a top 5 lyricist they said he was a top 5 rapper
ghostwriters
He ghostwrote for your avi
After thinking about it i feel as if Chief Keef and MF DOOM were 2 of the biggest snubs on this list
You genuinely believe 2Pac was a top 5 rapper of all time? be for real
He literally is. One of the handful of rappers whose sliders are all the way up across the most widely important criteria for a hiphop goat (which is pretty f***ing undeniable lmao)
If your only argument against Pac being top five is that he didn’t use rapid speed flows and metaphors that could only be deciphered by Reddit nerds…boy I got something to tell ya

I mean…
His lyrics were too straight forward to be “avant- grade”? Okay, they were densely poetic in phrasing and phonetics, powerful and effective execution of emotional subject matter, quotables out the ass and tightly structured from a rhyme standpoint. Not to mention he has arguably the greatest rap voice of all time. His flow is effortless and instantly hooks any listener in
This isn’t all time rapping? Come on now. And the guy made hits - both substantive and party focused, based on his effective penmanship and passion on the mic
