@@uvtpodcast365 I’m not Pidgeon holing them. Artists gotta get their bread. Full support of artists making this life work with what they have To be fair to Forbes, this is THEIR top 50, not what we would culturally agree on, so I’m not concerned with that. However, there is a world of revisionism when it comes down to black culture and our history. I believe inclusion is important, but I’d be remiss to say, that not everybody should be “invited to the cookout”, especially not one of the biggest outlets of promoting capitalism called Forbes. ASAP Rocky over Rakim? Drake over YE? Like I know you understand where I’m coming from here.

Also can we stop ignoring Big Boi and acting like he wasnt keeping pace with Andre, matching the energy, and sometimes out rapping Andre on a few tracks like Skew it on the Bar-B for example.

We gotta stop being nice about this. WE NEVER ASKED Y'ALL. People that do not care about poor black people in Urban areas should not have an opinion on a culture and art form that was created by and for poor black people in urban areas. That doesn't just go for Forbes and Rolling Stones but Complex and XXL need to get their priorities straight and realise they like the industry of rap music where Drake can be a goat and rappers that can't rap do embarrassing Freshman freestyles but the rap industry and Hip-Hop culture are not the same and neither they nor Drake nor the mumble rappers they used to support care about real Hip-Hop culture.

Just for everyone's info this Forbes list has been around for like a year or so and its essientally a blog post/editioral (contributing article, meaning people can write stuff for Forbes with their own opinon and no consensus). Every 3 months it feels like this list goes viral. But its not a concensus list, its not even anything offical. Its just something a contributing writing put together and was largely ignored until it circulates every few months. Just an FYI

A$AP being that high on the list is because it's a Forbes list almost certainly (Cardi too, they're looking at wealth). What I really want is a "50 over 50" list of JUST rappers over 50yo. These lists are definitely putting Pac as low as they can manage to be contrarian, it just doesn't make sense to put anyone else at #1 if you've talked to like any rapper ever.

One question that I always have when I see a top 50 list is, can we make room for Zack de la Rocha from Rage Against the Machine? To me, he and Mike Shinoda from Linkin Park and Fort Minor are the only (highly successful) MCs that have done rap justice in an otherwise "metal" band. Both of them (more obviously Zack) deliver powerful messages across genres and to audiences that might not hear a lot of rap. If we're talking about total number of bars spit during my workouts, it's gotta be Em then Zack. I have both Zack and Mike in my personal top 15 most impactful on me.

Some can be both but idek if those 3 can be part time mcs Idek why cardi b is on there, and i’m only up to 45 LOL

I think it was Open Mike Eagle who said it the first time this list made its rounds: a list like this is inane, because there's no reason it should exist. It doesn't translate any real person's perspective at all, it doesn't have coherent criteria, nothing. You wanna rank artist by influence and popularity? Go ahead. You want to rank them off of pure rapping ability? Great. You can even rank them by ability within a certain threshold of popularity, and that would still make some sense. But a list that ranks Cardi, Bad Bunny, MIA and Chief Keef (no disrespect to either of them) alongside DOOM, Kweli and Roc Marciano has no internal cohesion to me.

M.I.A. Deffo belongs in a top 50 rappers list. Huge impact on multiple levels (she was doing industrial hip hop before yeezus and even death grips), she has an incredible catalogue of music with at least 2 classics (arular and kala), she is super creative and a phenomenal songwriter. People tend to overlook the highly political themes and messages of her music with regards to immigration fear mongering, western warmongering and colonialism, and she does all of that while putting out incredibly infectious bangers that resonate on an international scale The song paper planes is literally about the mass hysteria and fear of immigrants stealing jobs and being criminals Put some respect on M.I.A. 🙏

They put Rocky waaaaaaay too high, even putting him above Tyler is insane to me. Not to mention putting Grippy Guy over Tupac...

Talib's recent Liberation 2 w/ Madlib was really a nice album. I'm glad he made the list, though I agree he should be at least a bit higher

Outside of Drake and Cole, I think the rappers in the top 10 are OKAY(I'd swap out a few) but the order is ass. Kendrick, Nas, and Em all deserve top 3 spots.

You probably know more than me on this topic. As a moderate Cardi fan, I've never heard her "openly" say she doesn't write her own raps, in fact she says the opposite. I know there's rumors but since her IOP days, she always said she writes and gets additional help from songwriters. She's even claimed to have written some songs by herself. I don't know if that's true but I've never heard her admit to not writing so just wanted to add a bit of nuance.

Talib definitely needs to rank higher but I'm surprised that he was mentioned so that's a plus. Mos Def and Lupe higher. Dr. Dre isn't a rapper. Lauryn may need to be lower, sorry. It feels like they were trying to strike a balance between skill, commercial success, and impact. I'm shocked that the list was objectively good. Pac was definitely in the wrong place. Cole is too high. Kanye could be higher. At least they didn't leave anyone off that I can think of.

I live in Chicago, and even though I've gone to rap open mics where people straight up plagiarize a Lupe Fiasco verse from an old mixtape of his and everybody goes crazy, it feels like I've been singlehandedly defending this man's lyrical prowess on my own lol the same rapper who wrote "Switch" and "Murals" is below ASAP Rocky on a hip hop list, God help us

These kind of lists always reinforce one thing for me: Top 50s shouldn’t be ranked. I truly believe a top 50 should simply be a listing of the 50 best rappers, without a ranking of who’s above who. I get why people do it, it helps a lot with engagement, but I really think it would cause the discourse around them to be a lot better.

I agree the Kweli should be higher off the strength of degree of difficulty. Rapping about consciousness is far more difficult than ignorance and degeneracy.
