i prefer these over Wayne, even though he might have some legendary music but i'm not a big fan of his corny punchlines

Scarface
T.I.
Ludacris
Young Jeezy
J.Cole
Jay Electronica
Young Buck
Pusha T
Rick Ross
Lil Boosie

Solid list besides Boosie,Buck and Electronica

They good,but not even close to being better than Wayne,but it is YOUR list so I can't knock it too much.

one thing i give Wayne is his longevity, he's been around for like 2 decades so he's a legend regardless. i also got into his music late, after Tha Carter IV dropped i went back and listened to his older material. i'm just not a fan of his punchlines since they can come off as cringworthy.

The three GOAT's of the south,i don't see how people can put wayne above any of those three
4.Three 6 Mafia
5.DJ Screw
6.8 Ball and MJG
Their impact is highly overlooked.
7.Wayne

Those three are interchangeable to me.
10.Missy Elliot

Between Missy's production work and her discography she's HIGHLY underrated .

Gucci had the streets on lock for a 4 year period no doubt,but between the hits she created for herself AND other Missy was holding shyt down from the mid 90's until about 2010 in TWO different genres.Not to mention all the females she inspired through her music.She's HELLA underrated.

shyt i'd put Missy higher than TIP and Jeezy now that i'm thinking about it.

Wayne might be the greatest for sales, impact, and influence but as far as straight musical quality he doesn't break my top 10.
