the same thing that old school rappers talked about haven't changed so why aren't their artist talking about the war, the economy and so on.

The only artist that I believe still try are....

Kanye West
JadaKiss
Nas
Mos Def
The Game
T.I.
Common

all the other artist out their are just trying to get rich with their one-hit wonders....it's sicken
I don't what MTV and BET just fuels the BS rap so I don't watch that either.....and I haven't listened to radio in last 5 years.
 
T.I. is ok at times, i dont like all of his stuff. to me, hes an average emcee cause hes very overrated. but yeah i agree, there are less good emcees, and in the mainstream rap scene, i feel as if kanye and game are the main ones keeping rap alive. mos def is a beast, and would torch t.i..
 
Yo brotha Grandmaster Melle Mels at the number 1 spot and drops heavy rhymes every time.

"Ah everybody clap your hands
clap-clap-clap your hands

Im the master of the lyrics
dont get greedy
Melle Mel gonna keep it swell
You might as well
take a chill pill
and kneel
to the true king of the thrills

Ah everybody clap your hands
clap-clap-clap your hands"
