Some great takes here, love to see billy woods recognition, for me hes the best out of NY, hes never dropped a bad project whether solo, with armand hammer or superchron flight brothers, a perfect discography imo. His lyrics on haram, shrines and hiding places are simply incredible, its like hes historian, a poet and a critical theorist all packaged onto amazing beats with emotive, strained delivery, so i would have him above nas but thats just my opinion. Great to see Boldy James getting some love as well, the run hes on is crazy and Manger on Mchnichols is a top ten album of the decade for me. Overall great video, would love to see a sequal!
@@nicholasanderson9019 You could argue that future has a better discography but your lying if you say that future is more talented than the guy who rapped on 151 rum.

Bro out of Illinois I'm taking Juice. Bro's still putting up numbers, not to mention his ability to freestyle anytime, anywhere. He has all of Death Race For Love freestyled, and he even got his influence not to forget to mention his unreleased catalog. I'm just saying, y'all left out Juice

The albums I think are bad are "Life is good" "Nasir" and "Nastradamus". Espicially Nastradamus, that sht worse than Revival and that's hard to do. Don't get me wrong Nas is in my top 5 rappers but his discography isn't the best and some of his fans don't admit it.

Currently I think Danny Brown has a good argument for Michigan, It's still Em for me I'm sorry, idk how Mtbmb was "underwhelming" when it was a surprise drop and had some incredible songs. His consistency is not the same anymore but he's simply the best still imo
don't understand how X isnt even in the florida notable rappers list. his influence in the music industry was at a completely different level and breaks the stream charts just as high as drake. tbf, it seems like the notable rappers list are rappers that are still alive and active, but if they included rappers that passed away then their answers would be much different
If you’re not gonna include Juice for Illinois, then Kanye is EASILY the best rapper from there. Nobody comes close, how can you tell me Lupe, Keef or Durk even stand a chance? They’re okay, but not THAT good
I woulda picked different rappers for basically all of them except Cali, Travis for Texas, Louisiana for Wayne and North Carolina. But really enjoyed the video. Hope u do more states like Va! They got ppl like Pharrell and Pusha T
I love the content you guys are making and it has really opened my eyes in terms of music and my knowledge of rap, and I suggest you guys start doing reaction videos, that would be sick.

So for New York you include ice spice billy woods and Niki minaj forgetting the artists in wu tang and mob deep and also big pun fat joe and big L. Come on guys
Wayne’s a clean sweep for Louisiana but if we’re talking about who’s in their prime RN, $uicideboy$ got it on lock. but I could see why you wouldn’t include a duo
Sorry but there is no competition in Michigan. Boldy James is the best out of there and I can make an argument that he’s the best rapper in the world right now.

Currently, Kendrick can still out rap any of his peers in Cali lmfao.
Kendrick different
