Detroit got some of the best rappers rite now, elzhi is beast, can't believe he is so underrated. Oh, and another set of ill rappers from the D are the Clear Soul Forces. They are DOPE!!!
You def know your shit homie! Elzhi, Shad, One Be Lo all ILL AF. Would also add Ransom/Cambatta/RA the Rugged Man 2013-2021 been phenomenal, Diabolic, Apathy, RJ Payne since 2018, MC Juice, Vakill, Epidemic (Hex One especially), Rhyme Asylum (Possessed especially), Percee-P, Ka, Pharoahe Monch, & Locksmith to name a few more of my favorite slept on ILL emcees.
Jay needs an album first. Aesop is in my Top 10. Black Thought is easily top tier although he's not necessarily one of my favorite rappers. I have an infinite amount of respect for him though.
i made this post to call out the the general direction of the state of hip-hop reps right now... i grew up at a time where the labels were signing CREATIVE black youth to sell to the BLACK consumers, positively... when that ended everyone created their own guild to what hiphop is, what a true mc is... that list you see that i posted are those stereotypes of what hip hop has become... its ONLY about Hip Hop as an art, an evolving art... its NEVER personal... via GangStarr... rip Guru.
blaq isnt one of my fav rappers, but "message" is dope... bought the 12" in 2004... as of late, premo gets him and screwball some of his best work outside of gangstarr and nas...
i was referring to def jux with him, but i can see thats not the case, just very many similar/same artists were on the label. anyway i was only saying its crazy to generalize like that. have you heard, blaq poet - a message from poet?
Like i said before... DOOM is perhaps on the label, but i dont see him as a RSers artist... Subverse and Fondle'em was his start then RSer's picked him up to bank...
Kendrick Lamar is actually really fucking good, listen to the Section.80 album. It may've been the best album in 2011. Listen to the song HiiiPower. But, Shad, One.Be.Lo, and eLZhi are all in my Top 5 Dead or Alive at this point.
top 5 mcs 1. not anyone in your top 5. 2. not that dude that sold 1000000000000 copies of one song 3. not anyone that ever signed to rhymesayers or def jux 4. not your homey 5. not you
Top 5 MCs: Don't give a shit because there are far more REALLY good MCs doing different things in different ways and 'top this' and 'top that' only ends up as a matter of personal criteria.
Well I have to respectfully disagree with you. rhymesayers and def jux are both full of wonderful artists, slug, aesop, blueprint, DOOM, RJD2.... Slug probably the only one in my top 5 tho
DOOM didnt get his start with RSers... they signed him to bank... he's still doom. but the rest of the roster other than Iself devine, that get my total respect with his works with the micronauts from the same sub verse label... yeah... but RSers upstarts... nope.
This is one of the reasons Elzhi entered my top ten. Isn't it amazing how someone of Elzhi's skill could still be so unknown to mainstream listeners?
I agree
Crazy
Edu-ma-fuq8-ed
Jesus elzhi is 👽. Intricate brilliance
Elzhi just unbelievable..
Elzhi One of the GOAT period!
Detroit got some of the best rappers rite now, elzhi is beast, can't believe he is so underrated. Oh, and another set of ill rappers from the D are the Clear Soul Forces. They are DOPE!!!
Elzhi's verse though fire 🔥

Elzhi shat all over Kennedy on this... beastly verse!

Wow thats insane!
ALL THESE KIDS LIKE LIL WAYNE AND STUUF SHOULD LEARN THIS !
Those rules are right :)
Shad, One.Be.Lo, and eLZhi are all brilliant lyricists, and have great albums and songwriting capabilities. I won't steer you wrong.
Eziokilla9595 shad k? Like rose garden?
You def know your shit homie! Elzhi, Shad, One Be Lo all ILL AF. Would also add Ransom/Cambatta/RA the Rugged Man 2013-2021 been phenomenal, Diabolic, Apathy, RJ Payne since 2018, MC Juice, Vakill, Epidemic (Hex One especially), Rhyme Asylum (Possessed especially), Percee-P, Ka, Pharoahe Monch, & Locksmith to name a few more of my favorite slept on ILL emcees.

i made this post to call out the the general direction of the state of hip-hop reps right now... i grew up at a time where the labels were signing CREATIVE black youth to sell to the BLACK consumers, positively... when that ended everyone created their own guild to what hiphop is, what a true mc is... that list you see that i posted are those stereotypes of what hip hop has become... its ONLY about Hip Hop as an art, an evolving art... its NEVER personal... via GangStarr... rip Guru.

RADON RANDELL lmfao. Word. This is dope though.
YEE

blaq isnt one of my fav rappers, but "message" is dope... bought the 12" in 2004... as of late, premo gets him and screwball some of his best work outside of gangstarr and nas...
Niceness
i was referring to def jux with him, but i can see thats not the case, just very many similar/same artists were on the label.
anyway i was only saying its crazy to generalize like that.
have you heard, blaq poet - a message from poet?
WHERE CAN I FIND THE ORIGINAL BEAT?!
search for g unit g’d up instrumental
Like i said before... DOOM is perhaps on the label, but i dont see him as a RSers artist... Subverse and Fondle'em was his start then RSer's picked him up to bank...
hahaha he played on Blue Mountain State.
didn't know he was rapper?
Wonder why he's barley uploading this
Is that U-Turn from weeds wtf? didn't know that nigga had bars like that
is that U-Turn form weeds? lmao
Shad is better than everyone on that list, and he is on par with eLZhi.
Make me see without using my eyes, its an illusion that lies in the music and trys to give views to the wise
Jesus christ elzhi!!!
@Dougie85 that line was super ill
So dope
FUCK YES.
Now play this to every wack MC and upcoming artist. And maybe they'll learn how to rap
Piffery.
Fire track, dude in red looks like aries spears lol
Kendrick Lamar is actually really fucking good, listen to the Section.80 album. It may've been the best album in 2011. Listen to the song HiiiPower. But, Shad, One.Be.Lo, and eLZhi are all in my Top 5 Dead or Alive at this point.
Kendrick is as near to El as Jay is to Slim on Renegade...
not saying its me but somebody reading your comment could be the hardest rapper out,dont assume shit
top 5 mcs
1. not anyone in your top 5.
2. not that dude that sold 1000000000000 copies of one song
3. not anyone that ever signed to rhymesayers or def jux
4. not your homey
5. not you
kendrick is not on Elzhi's level
Whoever believed he was lol
i love el but kendrick is the greatest, i noticed you wrote this before the release of To Pimp a butterfly
@@izzy2fleestill valid. Kendrick is a master in storytelling, Cadence and rhythmic poetry but he's not top tier in the barsmith
Dragonball Jay Z. I'm dead.
Elzhi is ahead of him. One.Be.Lo and Shad are on the same level as Elzhi, though. So is J-Live probably.
i dont consider tame one a RSers artist... his jump off was eastern conference...
Hell no top 5 lyricists or rappers? how bout I combine the two.
1 - Michael Larson
2 - El-P
3 - Elzhi
4 - Apathy
5 - Evidence
what's wrong with rhymesayers?
Elzhi outshines on this track. No hate though.
Top 5 MCs: Don't give a shit because there are far more REALLY good MCs doing different things in different ways and 'top this' and 'top that' only ends up as a matter of personal criteria.
Well I have to respectfully disagree with you. rhymesayers and def jux are both full of wonderful artists, slug, aesop, blueprint, DOOM, RJD2.... Slug probably the only one in my top 5 tho
DOOM didnt get his start with RSers... they signed him to bank... he's still doom. but the rest of the roster other than Iself devine, that get my total respect with his works with the micronauts from the same sub verse label... yeah... but RSers upstarts... nope.
No, not bar-none, although everyone I named are some of the best alive.
second guy reminds me a little of lupe
sooo you humbly believe eyedea, brother ali and ant are garbage? lol wtf?
Beat is ridiculous. Elzhi is ridiculous
As if this viner tried to rap
Lol, get real
dope song but the end was corny
I never said it wasnt a label... but in my humble opinion, i think its garbage...
Elzhi has a flat line montone delivery that is sick..hospital sick that is.He has no rhythm beat or flow ...when is he gonna get schooled
Dafk?
