Greatest lyricist? You haven't listened to rap in awhile huh. I'd say Eminem (he's white so that should satisfy you) Cannibus and Biggie before Rakim
Kool G Rap, Big Pun and Nas

U know I think people are really sleeping on big pun
And to not include nas as one of the greatest that ever picked up a metal mic, is downright sinful
"dead in the middle of Little Italy, little did we know, that we riddled with middle men that couldn't do diddly" - Pun
I'm sayin doe
But I def still put Em in my top 5. Like the dudes in my top three, he rhymes in iambic pentameter, which is the most difficult and technically complete way of putting words together.
Damn....learn something new everyday
And yeah em actually battles people and chews them up when he does, so he gets props on that since people thought he was a game because of his skin
It's too bad lyricism has been replaced by swag and ratchetness

Same with Pac
More artists learned from and copied PAC more than anyone else, he deserves his due off that alone. BTW has any other album gone diamond since? Not to mention his versatility.Um no sir

I'll take LL and dizaster over cannabis. You do know they both crushed him right?

Lmao. Good one! To be fair Nelly doesn't really belong in this discussion.Yes. Nelly's first album went diamond.
Anyone else hit diamond?Never bring album sales into a hip hop discussion. Shit is not relevant. Hammer and Vanilla Ice have gone diamond as well.More artists learned from and copied PAC more than anyone else, he deserves his due off that alone. BTW has any other album gone diamond since?
