The Top 25 Emcees in Hip Hop Today

This is a composed list of Def Pen Radio Host Kasmo Huxtable’s Top 25 Emcee’s as of right now. It’s based on several things Lyrics, Flow & Delivery, Bar & Voice Originality, Witt & Humor, Swagger, Subject Matter, Rewind & Oh Shit He Said That Ability, and Proven Catalog. Before the list gets started I wanna share my hip hop MC opinions real quick. Anybody who can say Lil Wayne is way more lyrical than Fabolous is crazier than Herman who used to draw Lambs shootin uzi’s in the back of your 10th grade chemistry class … But seriously like How is he the best rapper alive? … It’s almost feels like he got people brainwashed in believing he’s the best. Imagine Lebron James being benched for 5 years by the NBA for no reason. Crazy right? with his only action coming from him conducting his own pick up games to showcase his skills. That how I feel about Joe Budden not releasing a album since June 2003. The man has no lyrical flaw at all … Storytelling, Sick Metaphors, Passion, Voice Pain, Humor, Battle Bars, the nigga just dope need proof listen to Mood Muzik 1-3 right now. Lupe Fiasco is too ill for his own good. You can’t play Lupe when you in the barbershop or in a room full of niggas playing Madden, he just too complex at first listen niggas gonna be like “Fuck this nigga talking about eyelids & robots put that new G-Unit on”. But let you be alone chilling and you put that Lupe on he’ll have you like Oh Shit this nigga is wicked! To me he’s like a conceptual non violent version of 1997 Canibus.

As far as Hov he’s the greatest of all-time point blank period. The nigga still probably the dopest but with 300 million, a bad chick name Beyonce, and countless business ventures the boy Hov just don’t have the time to think of the sick shit that Joey & Lupe do as this stage of his career. I also feel Nasir Jones best work was in the 90’s outside of the Stillmatic album. I think rap comes to easy for Kiss so sometimes he gives you a lazy verse, Beans is would’ve been Top 5 but his last album was trash, Joell Ortiz is ill as fuck dude the dopest New York MC on the rise easily. Kanye West is a great overall artist not a great MC, he’s a good MC with a great hip hop mind and his mic swagg is at 1 billion. So please check the list, If you not familiar with some of the artist google & download them , and get enlightened … Also leave feedback on the list … Drop us your Top … Tell us Who’s missing? …. All that good shit …
