Both lyrically and technically, these 3 are so far ahead of every other rappers output this decade it's unreal. Talking just rappers rather than wider hip-hop/trap.

yes reptxn

Crime pays homie crime pays

HOV Wayne Kendrick Earl and Gibbs this decade goats

Drake

Billy Woods

not really

Not since 2016

Q
Rocky
Joey
Gibbs
Curren$y
Future

Dont forget about pusha

but he put out more life in 2017

More Life had zero good raps on it except for Do Not Disturb which was just good raps

Trash list

Wtf even happened to joey ass?

he tried to go mainstream and flopped

not consistently no

I’ll give u Joey cuz my love of 1999 might be overblown but cmon

Kendrick, Earl Danny
Drake Future and Freddie
then there’s a huge gap over everyone else

Hov
Wayne
Kendrick
Pusha
Earl
Gibbs
Zay
Thugger

Only rappers I’ll be checkin for their lyrics nowadays

Drake ain’t blacked on a verse since Family Feud remix and before that it was 4pm in Calabasas and before that it was 6pm in New York

Rocky still got the best technical rapping of the 2010’s he hasn’t recycled a flow in a loooooong time and every flow is crazy even if the lyrics ain’t crazy

Q fell off never was great rapper in the first place
Rocky great artist/musician but dude doesn’t rap about s***
Joey fell off after 2015
Gibbs goat
Curren$y can’t really evaluate
Future goat but far from being a top tier rapper

Q def a dope ass rapper dude

Blank Face has bars for days. S*** like Groovy Tony, Know Ya Wrong, and Black THoughts are straight bars front to back

I get the rest

Name me one rocky verse you can read it without listening an say s*** this poetry/has a message/leaves you thinkin

We talkin bout rapping not flowin I agree with you rocky got the top flow on lock

I’m saying that the rapping itself is great asf not the lyricism. But he has a few great lyrical tracks in Holy Ghost and Gunz n Butter
