Which rapper had the best prime?

[Ohene]

To me these are primes where damn near every verse was slick, hungry and clever.

Rappers like Jada and Jay in their prime could flow over any beat during the late 90s and shyt on it. Whats crazy is a lot of these dudes got on posse cuts together its fukked up!
"nikkas is hot heads and the bullets is heat seaking"

Rappers like Prodigy and DMX just killed it with the imagery and cynicness to their raps.
Rappers like Pac and Wayne killed it with hours and hours in the studio.

Rappers like 50 Cent and Eminem just shut the game down commercially.

etc etc. Still they were all well rounded (except maybe Nas). Answer the poll
