I feel like J.Cole is the best right now.
Hopsin is up there too
Lupe is one of the best
Kendrick is doing pretty good too
I don't include eminem or nas cause they don't produce as much they used too
Who do you guys think are the best rappers now?

I like all the ones you have posted. I haven't been following much of the new music from them though. Any new ones?

I Agree. I like how you included lyicists in stead of rappers who just talk about turnups or just know how to get the crowd hype.. Throw in Big Krit too and its perfect

I guess according to the status quo everyone you listed would be accurate... but in reality Everyone you listed is over rated and hyped by the media.

Sorry but the only one that's overrated is Kendrick

I disagree. I listened to him before his mainstream album and he was the shit then. the shit he is putting out now pales in comparison to what he was doing. but yeah if you listen to any of the mainstream music these artists made then it will always seem watered down

From that list that you just generated Kendrick would be the only one to make a top 50 all time list, the others just pale in comparison. Theres way too much talent in the under ground. J cole hopsin and Lupe are all over rated.

Alright I thought they made new material. I haven't listened to born sinner all the way and Hopsin I just listened to one of his songs and he is pretty cool.

Hopsin gets no exposure and I haven't heard many people talk about lupe in a while. J.Cole deserves the exposure he's getting cause he actually raps. Also Kendrick's new stuff is pretty weak, I like his old stuff better

I guess in some ways, but on the internet which really is the new frontier for hip hop and most music in general, hopsin Kinda gets it in.... Kendrick old stuff is classic, thats why I can agree with you that he is pretty much the best in mainstream... Jcole is kinda a sell out, and hopsin , don't get me wrong he's aiite, but his style can get repetitive. You are right though. Kendricks new shit definitely sucks, I ain't a fan of most of it.

What's funny about Hopsin

He sucks. And even if you don't think he sucks, he still doesn't come close to being the best rapper. I could think of a couple dozen people better than him
