pretty much i'm not overly into those elements as u know everyone knows this but put aside my taste. Those elements of lyricism were what rap was originally built on

What they mean to me is what they suppose to mean and in my opinion to not hear 3 Stacks excel better than 95% MC's at those elements means u need your ears tested
 
This nigga the most overrated mf'er in the game. Niggas got him top 5 and dude has zero solo albums so he can't be underrated

Plenty of rappers have those elements and NO ONE ever say they're top 5.

Him being top 5 is because this not a sport where there is an objective aspect to determine it like a trophy being won or something

But who is a technically great lyricist and MC is objective if u excel greatly at using all the elements of lyricism and MC-ing is objective

And who is not one is obviously gonna be objective too without any doubt objectively a Young Jeezy is not a Max B is not

Where as a Andre 3000, a Royce is where u wanna rank them at that is subjective however
 
@Chi-Town B and @5th Letter

Know that from this day forward, your voice will not be heard regarding 'anything' musically inclined.

Ioneven know 5th... but to say Andre is 'over rated' is Blasphemy.

We already ignore @Chi-Town B , so

Tell me how a nigga that's in people's top 5 is underrated. All you hip hop experts drop your reasons, I'll wait

You typed a lot without saying nothing
 
I need to reel you back in Shady you're getting off track. How is Andre 3000 "top 5" going off YOUR CRITERIA when there are other rappers that have the same attributes that you listed?
 
Word play is great
Multi syllable rapping is great
Metaphors are great
Rhyming patterns are great
Flow is great
Punchlines are great
Similie's are great
Delivery is great

Based on these attributes is Black Thought from the Roots top 5? Pharaohe Monch? Mos Def? Talib Kweli? Inspectah Deck? The list goes on.
