Underrated comment.
Number 3: Logics biracial side
@@tekkies9620 he’s half black btw
Did you know he’s biracial?
@kauz yea but he’s biracial
One thing with Aesop that is very impressive, is his breathe control and ability to perform his songs live so well. Watching him perform it looks like breathing is an option to him.
Yeah, I saw him intimately in 2010, at a uni bar. But his new album is truly nice, I like how his beef with El-P given him some street cred.
If you ever revisit this list, in like 3 years from now, you best remember our boy Denzel
Don't forget JID, either
I’d argue Boldy James, Little Simz and Mach-Hommy deserve consideration too if he ever revisits it
Logic taking up two spots because he's biracial isn't fair Anthony

Ok ✅
The fact that Lil Xan isn't on this list is an assault on the hip hop community. TOTAL XANARCHY is one of the most albums of all time. Nuff said.
I'm gonna throw a /s down just for good measure in case there's even a 1% chance that someone doesn't realize that I'm joking.

Whether people respect it or not, Eminem also helped horrorcore get more recognition. More people were exposed to this subgenre of Hip-Hop. Nowadays you get a lot of cringe rappers trying to be extremely gory, twisted, evil, etc. Not for me, but he was the reason I even became aware of this style. Even the offensive shit for people nowadays, I still find amazing or fun. His first 2 albums are flawless. That first LP has some hilarious moments too. "My Fault" is my favorite track when I wanna laugh.
tbh I disagree with him saying that his music hasn't aged. Maybe the jokes are more offensive, but his 2005 album compiled with his biggest songs has been on billboard for ages
Big L did horrorcore back in 1995,in his album Lifestyle Of Da Poor And Dangerous
Schism>
@@saif_shahid1 Gravediggaz did it one year earlier
big L and Gravediggaz made horrorcore cool. eminem is ass. he hasn't made a goof record in 20 years because he forgot how to rap. He is maybe top 50 but overall is just a mid rapper
Really disappointed you didn’t take into account height for this list
Poor MF Doom...
Poor Kendrick Lamar...
Bushwick Bill!
Aesop Rock in the top ten
Lol. Didn't realize Aesop was actually on the list when I posted. Seen dude live a few times & was surprised by his height. Same with Meth. Well over 6'

Great list. Would've loved to see Kool Keith/Dr. Octagon and MC Lyte. Few doing what they were doing at the time. And they were dope AF.
Kool Keith 100% deserves a mention. First Come First Served is the most quotable hip hop album ever imo

“Well known to those who are aware of him”
-Anthony Fantano
I mean technically this makes sense. You can be aware of someone, but not know them well
homie straight up had a stroke
@@pdlAaron but he said vice versa
I lol'd at that part too
he continues by saying "as someone who..." makes perfect sense lol
Lauren's verses on The Score, in particular Cowboys and the title track, are some of my all-time favorites.
Influence might’ve been too heavily considered imo, but otherwise solid. Always find myself split between whether or not I think it’s musical genius to rewrite the script for a genre, or just having a new sound break through at the right place and right time. I also woulda maybe put Blu, earl sweatshirt, and inspectah on here.
Edit: and redman
Inspectah has the best opening verse to a rap song imo in triumph, leaving him out is blasphemous
I love that he didn’t put logic on the list,He is a very humble guy for not putting himself on there...respect
Melon is biracist
But Whatabout Cal, pitting his roommate as number 1? So NOT cool

no matter how big he is every project sounds like it was bankrolled off tips working pizza delivery on weeknights
@@aldenkaiser248 Nah bro, Skelethon sounded legit in the production department.
i dont see the problem.. If they heard of him, it means they know his stuff well. That's what that sentence means. If he would have just said "known" instead of "well known" then yea sure it's a poor sentence but no its not.
Glad to see Daveed on the list. Gotta be one of my favorite. His enunciation while going fast as fuck, with complex time and deep lyrics/storytelling at the same time is just.. goddamn, wish he coulda collabed with MF DOOM on some sci-fi concept work.
seeing tyler, the creator on that list after all those 54 made me insanely happy
he deserves it, and that nigga is STILL going strong, he for sure ending up in that top 30-15 range by the end of his AMAZING career, and he is gonna end up top 15-5 producers of all time as well.

I think Big Boi has a better flow and delivery than Andre, but I think Andre is more deliberate in trying new things. Truly happy to see Big Boi in here, because he deserves minimally a top 20 spot in all regards.
I love big boi flow
Big Boi is so underrated
Wow I’m actually shocked that anyone could have that opinion 😅
I honestly think that Dre deserves to be on this list
Agree he was the most influential man in hip hop and a 🔥 producer
but he didn’t write his own music
@@FeliciathaGOAT okay? That doesn't change any of his accomplishments
@@yourmomscomment true, but it means that he isnt much of a rapper, if this was hip hop artists hed be number 1 and its not even close
Dre is not a great rapper. Stop mixing his production and cultural impact with his rapping skills. You need to seperate them.
I love how he didn’t number them in order that honestly just leads to so much conflict
Ahh naw I would've preferred just a straight up favorite rappers list, numbered. No balls!
Should have at least tiered them
I think it’s unfair to quantify something as subjective as musicianship, so this is nice
Usually a big fan of yours Melon, but screaming “Hopsin is the GOAT” for 36 minutes isn’t the level of content I expected from you
Are you kidding? That’s exactly the level of content I expect from him.
Usually a big fan of clever comments Chai, but posting something like this on a 36 minute video isn't the level of thought I expected from you
@@neal8759 it’s not clever when almost this exact comment is posted on pretty much every one of Fantano’s videos.
@@gavin4056 Exactly
@@neal8759 Why does the video length matter? Why can't this dude make jokes?
I think Redman should've been included. Whut thee album, Dare iz a darkside. Eric Sermon's protegee, being held as the GOAT by Eminem. A very relevant figure in the hip hop world, especially in the 90s. Also very creative lyrically, and technically skilled.
That being said, i still have to discover waaay more about hiphop, looking at this list. Which is a good thing. More great music to check out

I bet Danny was super happy to see this
Every time I see lists talking about the "Greatest" or "Best" rappers of all time and I don't see Prodigy, or even just Mobb Deep as a group, I grit my teeth. I don't know any other rapper that has the same delivery as P, just to be so dark and sinister, yet to be able to tell a story or spit some of the best lines you've ever heard is next level. His voice is the epitome of the classic gritty, tough New York voice, yet people always skip out on him.

Such a fantastic list. Excellent reasoning behind everyone here, although I would’ve made it top 75 instead, just because there’s so many not included like Method Man, Mac Miller, Denzel Curry, J Cole, (maybe) Future, Big Pun, Big L, Talib Kweli, Travis, DMX, JPEGMAFIA and others

HOW MENTAL ILLNESS CLOSES DOWN OUR MINDS
It may sound odd or impolite to suggest that most of us, when we are in the grip of mental illness, are no longer capable of thinking. That’s not how it feels of course. From the inside, our minds have probably never felt so busy and so focused. From the moment we wake up in panic and self-disgust, we are ruminating, pondering, exploring catastrophic scenarios, scanning our past, attacking ourselves for things we have done and not done, questioning our legitimacy, talking to ourselves about how repulsive we are, paying attention to strange voices recommending that we are evil and sick and headed for the worst - and wondering how and whether we should kill ourselves. Our minds don’t give us a moment of respite, we may rub our temples to cool them down and when eventually we fall asleep, we are exhausted by the marathons our thoughts have run inside us.
Nevertheless, we may still want to insist (for the kindest and most redemptive of reasons) that we have not been thinking at all, that none of this hive of activity deserves the title of thinking; it is just illness.
To be mentally ill is to be swamped by secretions of fear, self-hatred and despair that - like surging seawater through a pumping station control desk - knock out all our higher faculties, all our normal ability to sensibly distinguish one thing from another, to find perspective, to weigh arguments judiciously, to see the wood for the trees, to correctly assess danger, to plan realistically for the future, to determine risks and opportunities and, most importantly, to be kind and generous to ourselves.
None of these faculties function any longer, but - and this is the true nastiness of the illness - we are never and nowhere alerted to our loss. We are both very ill and very unaware. It looks as though we are continuing to think as we have always done - with all the usual intelligence and reliability - but that we just have a lot more to worry about. Nowhere along the way does our mind generously tell us that it has begun to look at reality through a distorted lens, that it has - at some point in the day - to all effects stopped working. No bell goes off, no hazard lights start to flash. The mind merely insists that it is giving us all the normal readings, and that we have objectively entered hell.
Yet the truth is that we have lost command of about a third of our minds and are pulling together our ideas from the most degenerate, traumatised, unreliable and vicious aspects of ourselves. It’s as if a group of terrorists had donned white coats and were impersonating prestigious scientists in order to lay out a set of vicious theories and prognoses.
Once we have been through a few cycles of distorted thinking and recovered contact with reality, we should do ourselves the kindness of accepting that - on an intermittent basis - we will lose command of our higher faculties and that there is nothing embarrassing in recognising the possibility and accommodating ourselves to it very carefully. This is the nature of an illness around which we will need to take the greatest care.
We should start to get better at detecting when illness might be drawing in on us, what the triggers for it might be. Then when it is upon us, we should do and decide nothing. We shouldn’t start to send emails, deliver judgement on our lives or plan for the future. We should - as much as possible - stop all mental activity and rest. We might listen to music, have a long bath, watch something untaxing on television and perhaps take a calming pill.
We should also try to plug our brain into that of someone else, to benefit from their greater powers of reason. We should have a trusted friend or therapist whom we can call on at such moments and ask them if they might recalibrate and regulate our thoughts with an injection of their wisdom and insight. We should willingly put them in charge of determining how things are for us: they should be allowed to tell us what we are worth, what we have done, what there is to worry about - and we should do our best to discount the contrary, doom-laden signals that come from inside us.
We may have grown up with the idea that so long as we are conscious, our minds will be working optimally. But mental illness teaches us a more complicated lesson: our higher faculties (those that give us access to reality) are extremely vulnerable and perilously prone to shut down under the sway of our emotional complexities - and to do so without telling us . We should strive to become thinkers who recognise when they are no longer able to think.

Ride being right next to Rakim made my day.
Fantano really went from "It's insulting to call Drake a top 50 rapper of all time," to "He's one of the 55 greatest rappers of all time," in the span of a year.
He was arguing that he was so high on the list. He was in the low 20's.
@@zander2473 he said it was insulting to have him on the list period
@Saksham Airee exactly and he said DMX should be higher in the top 50 list but didn't include him on his list😂😂 like what??
Drake is imo top 100, maybe top 50 in terms of amount of quality songs/catalogue, but obviously not top 50 in terms of lyrical ability, probably not top 1000.
I guess when you really think about it you have no other choice but put him in a list like that. He's too influencial from a cultural point of view and his commercial success is just too overwhelming to leave him out of this list.

Fr, without him we wouldn't have Eminem, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg and Kendrick Lamar.
The description says ‘technical ability, creativity and cultural impact’. And going off the criteria as an actual rapper he doesn’t fully fill any of them requirements, not saying that he’s not amazing but he is significantly more successful as a producer than an MC, so if this was a top 55 producers list he’d probably be top 3 along with Madlib and Rick Rubin :)

@@umberto488 I mean Kanye and Juicy J are more relevant as producers than as rappers. Many of the artists are on the list because they are/were popular or influential. If those sorts of artists are qualified to be on a list like this, which I think they are, there is reason to not have Dr. Dre who is more important to hip-hop than 90% of the rappers on the list.
@@Evan_Schaeferingdr Dre barely even writes his verses
@@crustycrumpetkaiser6734 Sure, but Kanye and Drake have also used tons of ghostwriters over the years on some of their most popular works, and they both made it on the list. In terms of actual rapping ability, there isn't a great argument for either of them, so I don't see much reason to not include Dre. This is doubly relevant because there are many rappers with long careers that are more technically capable than all of them, J. Cole, for instance, didn't make the cut.

C3PO is way better than R2D2, what are you talking about? Sure R2D2 might have a slightly better flow, but he has *nothing* on C3PO as far as lyrics go.
Löded Dîper?
Joe Budden?
River cumo be like ooooowweeeeeoooo I lookjust like Buddy Hoooollyyyy
St Anger snare got some 🔥🔥 records
is this a melon spin off of the hey apple channel ?
One of these but for the top whatever number Producers of all time would be dope too
It’s crazy how Taylor Swift didn’t make this list. I mean, have you HEARD her verse on “Shake it Off”??
I'm surprised Pink Fong wasn't here, Baby Shark easily the most influential sing of the internet age.
@@BigMoney398 Why wasnt dora on here, have you heard the theme song?
Corndog
I love that bar about her being lightning on her feet. So introspective even out of context with the song.
😂😂😂
Where’s playboi carti, the inventor of music?
@Tenticle Ass r/wooosh
It’s because Lil B created playboi carti
@@achinthyamadhusoodanan2007 I mean playboi carti is still arguably sort of a legend
@@Tom-vu1wr not a legend but a game changer fo sure
Nice profile pic. Love tpab
Watching this for the first time in 2022, how is DMX not on this list???
To leave J Cole off this list seems solely personal. From technical skill, discography, commercial success, especially influence with the Dreamville artists, you can’t realistically leave him off the list.
nobody agrees with this
@@SheppyProd it’s a pretty common comment here so that’s just inherently false. Thanks for trying to contribute though!
You know that jid is better at jcole in everything right the forever story is a showcase of that
Only thing jcole is better at jid than is influence and commercial success
That’s because J Cole is the biggest cornball in the world who has contributed little to nothing original to hip hop
I can't believe that you forgot to mention Madvillain, Viktor Vaughn and king geedorah smh
Yeah each persona deserve it's own spot
disappointing
Don't forget Zed X Love too!
@@yugiohyoutuification smh it's zed love x

Wasn't expecting Joe Budden at number 3. But to each their own I guess.
Its alphabetical not chronological
@@shawndeas8027 budden is 3 wym?
"The closest thing he had to hits is smacking melons"
Damn Anthony
I love that you included MIA! ❤
Big L deserves a spot
Yelling "MC Ride" fifty five times doesn't count as a list Mellon.
Yea it does
Damn. You're right.
Every rapper mentioned is dope. Maybe just because I'm young but I think Denzel Curry will soon enough make it onto a list like this, he hasn't had a misstep in his career yet and I think he has yet to make his best project
110% agree bro
Definitely one of the most consistent rappers out right now.
amen
hopefully same with Earl and JID
Same feeling about this. Not yet, but as few years will pass, Denzel will slowly go down in history as one of the most charismatic and distinct styles of the new generation of hip-hop
Big Pun, DMX, Jadakiss and Z-Ro should be in this list too (in my opinion 😂)
im extremely surprised how good this is
