Who is the best rapper right NOW in your opinion

If you say Drake i don't want to hear your opinion about anything to do with rap...honestly.
In a world where there is Pharoahe Monch, Mos Def, Nas, Elzhi, Fashawn, Kendrick, Lupe, Budden, Common Andre 3000etc etc, how can you say Drake is the best rapper?
Even if you want to go along the route of him being the best artist, i can't agree, and for one reason only.
Drake hasn't ever shown the consciousness and depth of a rapper like Kendrick or Mos or 3 stacks.
To put into perspective, an artist like Kendrick can create a top 20 single, that is catchy and fulfills all the criteria of a hit, but also has an underlying message, which is why some of his biggest hits, the likes of ADHD, Swimming Pools, Money Trees etc, have all had some type of social commentary on them.
Thats what i feel elevates Kendricks artistry above Drake, same thing with Mos or Andre 3000.
