80's and 90's rap is actually good music, I'm assuming you guys are Nickelback fans?

Thought this was a legit thread until that. Mod should just lock this troll thread.

Your kidding. 2Pac is GOAT and it's not even close. But rap these days absolutely suck. All the beats sounds the same, no message at all. I listened to French Montana's "I ain't worried bout nothin" and some song called "as long as my b's love me"......................worse garbage ever. And don't get me started on Nikki minage.

2Pac at #1, Eminem at #2.

 

[Tubbs1518]

1. Wu Tang
2. NWA
3. Outkast
4. Public Enemy
5. Run DMC

If we are talking Hip Hop and not just rap The Fugees and Bone Thugs might make it into my top 5.
