Which rapper is the BEST beat picker in hip hop?

[Street Knowledge]

Jay has had people rhyme over his beats more than anyone. It’s no contest. Every album has huge stars rap over his beats. Any one think otherwise grab your rapper and we can go song for song

Yeah and it be random album cuts too not just singles

 

[ThirdAct]

All of Drake's shyt has sounded the same for a long time, variety is important in beat-picking so it can't be him

Kendrick has a good ear for beats but it became spottier after TPAB IMO

Jay has a good ear for beats too but he's definitely picked some duds as well and it shows on his weaker albums

 

[Reptile]

The beats on Mr Morale and GNX are trash

 

[Cladyclad]

Yeah and it be random album cuts too not just singles

I want someone to challenge me lol

 

[Awesome Wells]

Hov
Fat Joe
Kendrick

I forgot to mention Joe.

He's another one that always had really dope production.

 

[JustCKing]

OutKast
Scarface
Rick Ross
Jay Z
Nas
Missy Elliott
Jeezy
Game
Ghostface
Snoop Dogg


^^^ all have bodies of work that feature elite production from GOAT producers and even if it wasn't a GOAT producer, it was some of the producer's best work.
