Some other really dope ones I'd throw in the convo are Last Emperor, Big Daddy Kane, Kool Moe Dee, Chino XL.

Nice to see Common get a mention.
G Rap does have some hard shyt, he could pull off quite a few things and always kept it lyrical.

Undying Love is still the pinnacle of Nas for me. The emotions
Undying Love is incredible. I think Deja Vu is one of his most soulful songs as well.
Take it In Blood though convinced me that Nas isn't human

Prodigy doesn't get mentioned enough. His penchant for imagery is criminally underrated, and at his peak he was one hell of a rhymer.
