Sickest delivery: Eminem
Sickest flow: Tech N9ne
Most meaningful concepts: Immortal Technique
Best hooks: 50 Cent (they stick like glue)
Best wordplay: So many, but Fabolous is a favorite of mine.


Here's the list so you just have to copy, paste and type in your answer.

Smooth rap:
Hardcore rap:
Sickest delivery:
Sickest flow:
Most meaningful concepts:

is just me or does joe budden use the same exact delivery in every track? i mean it's sick (especially in fuckin Walk With Me, outrageous!)

but i agree mostly with what bar said... but not many people give enough credit to Lupe especially for concepts and wordplay and such.

and for Hardcore rap, i'd put xzibit.. and smooth rap, i'd say kanye or bone thugz and harmony

yeh it does sort of sound the same, but ive just never been like "that line would have sounded better with more anger or more sorrow" ect. when listening to his tracks, in comparison to listening to royce who i think doesnt control his voice well enough and quite often goes angry when there is no need to emphasise the lyrics, buddens never leaves me feeling disapointed in that part of his rap.


also through the whole thing i wanted to put lupe as something, but what lupe does isnt there he has a good amount of everything mentioned and then a CRAZY CRAZY amount of knowledge and creatvitity witch makes him great.
