A$AP ROCKY IS BETTER THEN LIL WAYNE and Pusha T
Aesop Rock is better than A$AP Rocky. Also A$AP stole his name from Aesop. Just like how every other person in the A$AP crew bit their name off someone.

Virtually everyone is better than Lil' Wayne. And just so everyone knows it, I'm gonna write a wall of text.

Rappers whom are miles ahead of Shit Hop(Mainstream Hip Hop) lyrically include:

Aesop Rock
If your at all impressed by ANY lyrical content, this guy will likey blow your mind every line. He's just that good.
His typical style is to spit abstract metaphore after abstract metaphor, with a few obscure pop culture references here and there, all of which ultimately paint an impressively complex image. This cat isn't for the simpleminded,
nor is he for the mainstream, but he does spit some fire. Also, I've never heard another hip hop artist in my life who has lyrics which are so rewarding to decipher and finally understand the meaning of.
He's arguable one of the best lyricists not just in Hip Hop, but in music period. At least in my opinion.
"9-5ers Anthem":
"Big Bang"
"1000 Death's"
"Daylight" (His classic)

Sage Francis
When it comes to wordplay, this guy is the champ. Also known as a sick battler, Sage Francis is quite notable for a number of reasons. Check him out.
"Xaul Zan's Heart"
"Escape Artist"
"Sea Lion" (Featuring Saul Williams, another sick lyricist)
"Smoke & Mirrors"


Eyedea
Most notable for his work with DJ Abilities, Eyedea was known as a sick freestyler, battler, and
all around artist. This cat could spit! Unfortately, after completely dominating rap battles from age 16-19, as well as making some of the most original hip hop later in his life, his time got tragically cut short a few years back at the age of 28. His stage presence speak for himself, so check it out.

"Wake Up Show Freestyle":
"Eyedea vs R.K":
"Exhausted Love":
"Star Destroyer":
"Smile":
J.U.I.C.E. Known for beating Em in a battle back in the day. Also a nasty good freestyler
"Key To The City":
"Late Night Hype Freestyle(Jaybee briefly, then Eyedea, then J.U.I.C.E.")

K-Rino: This southern hip hop legend of the underground earned legendary status for a reason.
Even though he's virtually unheard of outside of Houston,
this cat's been in the game for well over 20 years, releasing around 24-28 albums.
All of which are amazing. Out of all the artists I've listed, he's probably one of the harder to get use to, but it's undeniable he has skills.

"Spiral Vortex":
"The Sorcerrer's Den":
"Duality":
"Oblivion Scroll":
"Ultimate Flow":

Illogic
lyrcally one of the best, as well as among the most complex. this cat can spit some original,
fresh, and intelligent lyrics. Probably the only cat in hip hop who comes anywhere near
Aesop Rock lyrically. check his stuff out

"Celestial Clockwork":
"Lesson In Love":
"Day to Day":
"Me Vs Myself:

C-Rayz Walz


Immortal Technique

"The 4th Branch":
"Leaving The Past"
"Dance With The Devil":

The Orphanage
A hip hop group consisting of Illogic, Aesop Rock, Slug, Eyedea, and Blueprint. These cats only made
a couple songs with all of them in it, but those tracks are pure lyrical gold. Also they did
a really sick 55 minute freestyle featuring Sage Francis as well as Felipe Cuatly.
"Hold Mine"
"Obselete"


Cage
"Agent Orange"
"Left It To Us Ft The Weathermen":



Binary Star
Sick Hip Hop duo.
"KGB ft Elzhi, Malachi, O Type Star, J.U.I.C.E":
"I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings part II":



Mr. Lif
"Be Out":
"Because They Made It That Way"
"Night Train Freestyle":

Esoteric
"Learn From The Druid":


Other fantastic lyricists include Slug of Atmosphere, El-P of Company Flow, Doseone, Busdriver, Apathy, & Living Legends
