In the more traditional sense with some bay twist , it would probably be Casual. Pure spitting, Street Knowledge. Overall, Jacka. E-40 gotta be somewhere in there, but I'm not sure I could really categorize him.
FruitOfTheVale
Superstar
Subject matter --> The Jacka
Flow --> Agerman, E-40, Spice-1
Delivery & vocal projection --> Andre Nickatina, Del, Paris
Rhyme schemes --> Yuk & Casual
"Flat-out writing" --> Boots Riley
"Flat-out rapping" is a tough one... cases can be made for Andre Nickatina, Spice-1, Messy Marv, etc.
As far as most complete of an artist though imo it's The Jacka. He had a better ear for production & more musicality than a lot of folks and he knew how to switch up the flow to rap on production from other regions. Also a top tier writer & knew how to evoke a feeling with words in ways very few period can do.
R.I.P. Street Knowledge.straightcash
All Star
In terms of gangbanging music, Woodie might be the best out of the Bay.
Produced his own beats too, and he referenced real life incidents in his gangsta raps which was unheard of in the late-1990s and early-2000s.

Broke hoes is a no no
A case NOT be made for Mess as far as RAPPING (he had cool voice, thats about it though) goes, that nikka is terrible. And always has been. He has NO business being mentioned alongside anybody you named.
