Underated Rappers
 

These are not my favourite emcees but possibly in my top 10 because i like their style...

who do you think is underated-who you think needs more recognition why and what do u think on these

(no order)
1.Canabis...definately one of my top 5
2.GZA...maybe top 10
3.Royce Da 5'9...not amazin but good i think
4.LOX in general...there albums arent great but if they'd have better producers they be the best...order of MY fave in these guys are Styles Jada then Sheek...i like them all tho
5.Redman...tho he has the commerical recognition-i never here ppl say hes one of their favourites...hes got a unique style i think and has served a long time in rap bein gr8
6.scarface...i only just got "my ball.." n i like it but i love "the fix" just ppl aswell never say hes that gr8

Bone Thugs
Twista
Skillz

BONE CRUSHERS

theres far too many underrated rappers out there

Mmm.. Bone Crusher can suck my boner.

man, I was sort of into reading this thread until I saw "Bone Crushers".....then I jus scrolled down.

but the only person who hasn't been listed so far that I like in Chamillionaire.

Bone Crusher? This is why people always shit on the south. All these damn niggas down here wanna hear is a lil john beat wit a dirty lookin muthaphucka spittin on the track. Then they go home, put on headphones and bump Nas in the corner cuz they say he's deep, but they'll never blast that shit in their car. Wtf? Oh well, I can't control feeble minds....

bone thugs n harmony

thr raptist

xzhibit

this is just guys that most people know but never get any respect.

cormega
OC
afu ra
the roots
reakwon
kurupt
raskass
blackstarr
dead prez
and tash is pretty good,

omfg, read the whole list, and not once was the most overlooked, underrated, true lyricists named, you all don't know skill...

Jedi mind tricks (ikon the verbal hologram and jus allah)
Swollen members
Chief Kamachi
Ill advised

and goin against everything i stand for,

LL cool J, Return of the Ripper is Ill...

For real the roots are ill as fuck

I think Big Pun Big L
and the main producers for Diggin in the Crates
are hella under rated...

I think Talib Kweli, he is one of the best in my eyez. He has gotten some more play time but pretty much only a vid or two every so often.

the flu aint underated but he posted here so imma call him a prick

xzibit yeh.

Che Fu

....King Kapisi.

i feel like talib kweli is way underrated. he been livin is mos's shadow an only now peeps are givin him props

jadakiss is pretty underrated...well here anyway.

People don't really give Mos Def props either......though he is in that new movie The Italian Job.....so I'll go see that

Noreaga doesnt get much either

I like da roots

LL Cool J never got da respect he deserved either
