I would have added Xzibit in the top 5 but agree with Tech.

ppl have been talking about tech for years tbh (not 20 ofc).
If he's unappreciated (and the word comes from the article) it's just because we don't all enjoy his music so getting props should be enough imo

Well of course he's successful now. He's been in the game for 20 years, he met Tupac.. And he's only starting to get the props now. That's being slept on.

The only people talking about him have been his fans. He's arguably one of the best, and only his fans talk about him. He's still a guy that could walk down the street and not be noticed. He should be way more well known, but he isn't. He's underrated, and slept on.


If only his fans think he's one of the best then I disagree with you when you say he's arguably one of the best rappers and it has nothing to do with being slep on imo

true, didn't read correctly :y:
I still disagree because if it works for tech, then it works for a lot of other rappers

I think Big L should be somewhere on the list. Kids on YouTube do mention him a lot but he's not that much known or spoken about in general (among Hip-Hop fans), and also A.G. should be higher on the list, and Percee P and Lord Finesse should have been included as well. Hell, I don't even think Mos Def gets enough props even though he may be the most respected MC ever. It's sounds like a paradox, but what I mean is that no one ever bashes him and when he is brought up people cosign, but he is rarely brought up. Just my 2 cents.
