    Who do you guys think is the best rapper alive at this time? If you do not have a best rapper who would you put in your top 3.

    Here is my Top 3:

    Lupe Fiasco
    Chamillionaire
    Z-Ro

    I like Lupe because he is an actual hip-hop artist without all that pop BS, I like chamillionaire because of his versatility and Z-Ro because he is just too real.

    What do you guys think?

    If this has been posted go ahead and merge or lock it up.

    I love Nas too, but I personally enjoyed listening to his older stuff much more then the new music he is putting out. Illmatic has to be one of the best rap/hip-hop albums ever.

    Illmatic I was boss
    It Was Written I flossed
    One of the most creative LPs ever to hit stores


    gotta love it, I still think his new stuff are better than 99% of the songs thats out there. When a new song comes out, the expectation is very high though, which is why some may be a bit disappointed

    2. Snoop Dog - Pretty good rapper I dont mind some of his oldschool stuff
    3. Bishop Lamont - New guy on the block should check out his song, Grow Up.

    Good list... I would replace Eminem with Wayne and add Common and Z-Ro. Everything else looks on point

    even after they're dead, the members of Tribe will remain the greatest rappers alive. :)
