COMMUNITY Rank The Top 30 Rappers of Alltime

It's a difference between "let me tell you some shit that happen" and a actual story.
 
Don’t see how seen a man die is not a story and a week ago is Lol that doesn’t make sense you would have made a better case with the Friend or Foe songs
 
I aint even gonna nitpick lol If yall consider Seen A Man Die A Story, cool.

What yall got on Friend or Foe?


And on 2nd thought, I would rank have around 7 in storytelling, but that's still about 10 slots ahead of Scarface and Cube.
 
I like Friday as much as the next man, but yall gotta relax lol
I prefer Next Friday but I'm sure I'll be in the minority pool as usual. It just had more gutwrenching laughable moments to me. Like some niggaz sophomore albums I prefer over they first album.
 
Story telling joints should be consistent from the beginning to end. Sometimes it's just a verse, most of the time it's a whole song. For me, they cant waste any time with pointless, random bars or a hook that dont got jack shit to do with nothing.

Nas Second Childhood is a dope storytelling joint
Biggie Warning
Common Misunderstood
Kendrick Sing About Me
Jay-Z Momma Love Me
Cole Girl Of My Dreams

And of course the all mighty Slick Rick....well catalog
 
(1-10)


1. Nas ( 554 points)
2. 2pac ( 538 points)
3. Jay-Z (526 points)
4. Biggie (493 points)
5. Scarface (344 points)
6. Ice Cube ( 335 points)
7. Andre 3000 (305 points)
8. DMX (290 points)
9. Lil Wayne (274 points)
10. Kendrick Lamar (260 points)

Not a bad list...

Wayne doesnt belong in the top 10. Hes a top 10 rapper but has no classics so just on body of work he shouldnt make it.

3000 doesnt have a solo project so its hard to put him in the top 10.

Em fell off hard and fast but based on the criteria hes a top 10 rapper easily.

Rakim definitely belongs in the top 5....was 4 or 5 years too late

Switch nas and pac and thats a good top 3.
 
And this classic is a no brainer, one of the best stories told in Hip Hop



A new day, brings a new problem to a brother
And all I gots ta say is thank god for my mother
Cause without my mommy dear my life would've been a joke
Either locked up playin' dead and still slangin' dope but nope
The lord he had a plan for me
And with his help, my mother made a man of me






 
Nigga Scarface one of the GOAT storytellers!




Later on, all alone, sat around the house kickin it
My girl came home, I told her shit had been
Real fucked up, so girl, don't push me
She pulled her skirt up, and said, "He could need some pussy"
I just sat back, my legs started shakin
Now here's another stupid bitch that I be breakin
I grabbed the slimmy by her hand, and lead her upstairs
Threw her down on the bed, and she said, "Fuck, yeah!"
I opened up her legs, prepared her for the stabbin
Like Mike Tyson in a brawl, boy, I was jabbin
The bitch was sweatin, but I guess she wasn't bothered
Cause all she said was, "Fuck me harder, fuck me harder!"
I started bangin, I was bangin, dick was numbin
She wasn't hangin, she was singin, "Brad, I'm comin!"
Up and down, side to side, perfect timin
I started stickin with the quickness, we were grindin
I was just about to nut, she got on top of me
I heard a (*shot*) Now what the fuck? Somebody shot at me
I took a look, the girl was cooked, her head exploded
Reached for the Uzi at my foot, and I unloaded
Straight out the window I could hear the soldiers' footsteps
I'm a taker, not a faker, I ain't been took yet
So many hunters, dyin faces to the concrete
Although you try to take me out, you die in one beat
Of the heart, boy, how dare you suck on me?
And I'mma teach you and your boys not to fuck with me
Rolled out the backdoor, lookin for his bossman
I'll watch him bleedin, pour his blood in a saucepan
He's in his Cadillac, starin at my frontdoor
I stood behind him, pulled my gun, said, "What you front for?"
He says, "I'm sorry, Ak, don't kill me, I was jokin, griff"
That's why your boys are on my balcony and they're frozen stiff
The boy was shocked, then pulled up cops, he looked at me said, "You're a goner
Cause you shot and killed the boys who worked my corner"
Pulled back the hammer, put my gun up almost point blank
Shattered his dome, reached in the pocket, took the boy's bank
Got out the Cadillac, the copper, he said, "Stop it, freeze!"
I aim my pistol for his stomach, instead I pop his knees
Fell to the floor, he looked at me and he said, "Akshun, please!"
I put my gun between his eyes, said, "Don't breathe"
He took a breath, and he knew he'd breathe his last breath
That's 20 soldiers and copper, 21 shot to death
I had to leave everything I'd ever worked for
But best believe, I won't get sentenced for a drug war
But maybe one day in the future I can come back
But until then, I'm goin home, where I'm from, black
Nobody knows my name, they'll only know this face
And ask my posse, they say, "We call him Scarface"



 
I'm gonna give an honest listen to all these joints.

I already heard a couple, but i'm gonna give it an objective ear.
