The 50 best rappers of all time by Forbes Magazine. Do you agree or nah?

[B1G_controversy]

No need in making a big argument over a non-reputable source

Any list that doesn't have Nas in the top 4 is one that I won't pay attention to

And for the argument about discography, timeless discographies transcend generations

So couple of things to note

Much like Bleacher Report back in the day, anyone can be a contributer and put up a Forbes article with anything (Hence why that Alfred dude with all the WWE/AEW propoganda is always there even though it aint got shyt to do with finance)

Secondly with that mind, this is clearly some list someone put together all hodge podge and random and given it was posted in March, I can see why it got no aggregation until a Nicki Stan account on twitter got a hold of it today

When it’s a magazine that’s not a music magazine you know that it’s just one journalist that could’ve been any random coli poster giving their own list right? On music mags is usually a whole ensemble from the staff of music nerds


And it’s a black woman who has nothing to do with the financial industry.

 

[Sunalmighty]

is this list in order

 

[Cladyclad]

I think the list is perfect

I don’t see a issue at all

why are y’all crying about facts

 

[Lhark]

They put Cardi over Thug so I instantly closed the tab.

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

thugga, cardi, and keef to start the list

edit: M.I.A

edit 2: dr dre and above people like LL and Prodigy

edit 3: JuiceWrld @ 27

now this is the type of diversity and inclusion I can stand to rally against

 

[NoHalfWay]

40. BAD BUNNY
41. LUPE
42. PRODIGY

I literally hit the Mark Hamill joker laugh when I saw that exact order

am i the only one who respects kendrick, but doesn't listen to him at all?

some of that older shyt like Keisha's Song is incredible, but the alien voices, and the weird shyt, i just can't get into it. to put him as a top 5 rapper of all time is fukking insane to me

 

[Iverson_64]

At this point, they're probably going to start listing Beyonce because she rapped a few times.

The recency bias is wild

You’re a cac, breh. You can’t relate to that black experience

Imagine you being able to understand a song like this

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

The recency bias is wild

overcompensating AF, as i do think most lists overly punish recent (post 2010) rappers, but this was try hard den a mug

 

[the cac mamba]

Imagine you being able to understand a song like this

bad voice is a bad voice especially when you purposely make it worse and more annoying, to be experimental

Kendrick as a top 5 rapper isn’t insane. His disco better than nikkas like Hovs if we keeping it a bean lol
