The way this list was composed makes my head spin. So many of the rappers listed as “trash” and “inconsistent” have had admirable careers lasting decades or have pushed the genre in unique ways, and to have forgettable figures such as G-Eazy and YNW Melly sitting higher than RTJ, Noname, Injury Reserves and DOOM is just a shame bro. On the other hand, I want to know so badly how this list was composed, and by who. I think the demographic of people interested in tierlist-making had a big impact on how the list played out.

[@aggohyf]

I think the main reason this list is so bad is because the idiots who put this together accidentally including not knowing who the artist is as part of the average and since it was at the bottom. Those who people haven't heard of were just brought straight to the bottom of the list even though they're GOATs.

[@traplover6357]

Most people making tierlists have a "don't know" option in the bottom. And I guess the Tierlist website put them in their own made-up bottom tier

It looks like most of the people who submitted a tier list simply weren’t aware of all the talents that exist across the landscape of hip hop, so they threw them in low tiers out of sheer ignorance.

There’s so much to account for regarding a tier list for rappers that it becomes nearly impossible to rank them. How do we factor different genres of rap vs. one another? How do we compare short career runs like Biggie and 2PAC vs full and ongoing careers such as a Drake or Kanye? How do we define Lyricism? Technical ability? Influence? Which weighs more over the other? There’s no such thing as a wrong opinion unless it’s whatever this god forsaken tier list is.

[@Thepre-fixfordeath]

None of those questions have ever been able to be answered, in any genre, but here would be mine: I would define lyricism as the meaning and depth of the lyrics first and things like Rhyme schemes as secondary but still fairly important. Comparing short vs long careers could only be done by vs. The peaks of each artist which is still an ignorant way to go about it Influence has zero bearing on the quality of the artist, but it does lay a significant role in other discussions. Factoring different genres of rap would be comparing how good they are at their sub genre, and what they accomplish within it.

I think most tier lists for artists usually come down to the person's individual taste as a whole and what they like and don't like. Even if someone is incredible at what they do there will be someone out there that doesn't like them and will put them in a bad or just okay category despite the fact that overall they are better than that. Also legendary status has a lot to do with whether or not someone will be higher or lower in a particular tier list. Edit: Also to clarify, some people just put the artists in each tier in order as they are on the bottom of the page. Other people actually rank people in each tier. That's probably why you think some of the tier rankings are wack. Edit #2: Also to clarify again, I think most people at the bottom of the tier list are there because the casual fans of rap and hip hop didn't know who they are and made a I don't know them category and because the tier list creator had different tiers in mind the list got f ed up.

[@coastercraziness]
