[CrimsonTider]

Jay Z

 

[mcwop23]

Masta Ace

 

[unit321]

Honorable mention:

Vanilla Ice

 

[Dusty Bake Activate]

Masta Ace

He's not popular anymore, but he probably has more longevity at being a good emcee than anyone I can think of...him and De La Soul. Jay-Z too, but he was just Jaz sidekick and a few guest songs and guest appearances until 96.

 

[Blackking]

no kid cudi, no asap rocky. No Kanye if it has to be top 5 only.

But yes, nas for 90 n 2000's. Not the hugest Jay fan.. but him 90 to infinity.
Fab is underrated for 00's. But KRS 1/LLcool, big L/Pac/emenim - 80, 90's

Because of the lack of competition these days of real emcees. J. cole.
