As some of you might recognize I'm the person who made Rapperle - the rapper guessing game (rapperle.com).

One of the frequent complaints I get about the game is that it is missing a lot of "key figures" from recent years.

People here seem extremely knowledgeable about Hip Hop as a whole, so I wanted to ask who in your opinion are these "key" rappers (from the past 5-10 years)?

To clarify, "key" figure does not necessarily mean a good rapper, but someone who had a large impact, even in a short amount of time (so answers like Lil Pump or even Ice Spice are also applicable).

Would need to see your database to fill in the blind spots. Cool plug tho

When you play it will autocomplete names for you.
If a name is not one of the options, they're not in the game.

Drake
Pop Smoke
Juice WRLD
Westside Gunn
NBA Youngboy

HM: Playboi Carti

Schoolboy Q is 36???

I got 10 in a row and BOB took me out.

Ice Spice
Baby Keem
Lil Peep

Few guesses I thought would be on there

This is a nail rapper not a key rapper

Went through the Apple Music Hip-Hop Hits lists from 2013 onwards, here's what wouldn't autocomplete for me. I wouldn't necessarily include all of these. Some of them are one-hit wonders. I put a ⭐ next to rappers who I personally think are well-known enough to be included but choose at your own discretion

You have a mix of 80s to 20s rappers in your list and I think it might be a good idea to let people filter by decade. A lot of newer fans won't know the older artists and vice versa and it could be too challenging for them

Drake
Future
Thug
Trav
