Fitty cent is a fake. Rappers talk junk about him each day. When you release a video-game the same day as your movie, that is not good for street cred.

Nas and some others are good.

Be prepared for flames - from me too - 50 Cent is garbage, I can't wait for his 15 minutes of fame to be up, his fanbase is mostly limited to white teens, they will soon move onto the new flavor of the year.

out of those listed, i like JayZ

well... i also like NAS

50 is aight.

i'm a Snoop fan though, as well as Cypress Hill. so... i'm undecided. i like lots of different rappers.

btw, it is 50 Cent, not "cents" :D

50 just has Dre going for him. When the doctor is making your beats it's gonna be hot.

Pop hip-hop has it's place but the real sh!t is the underground stuff.
Aesop Rock can spit something nasty for an MC let alone a white boy.
Del is really out there.
Kool Keith(and his many aliases) is really really really out there.

But I think the best rapper is Immortal Technique.

I liked some of the old-school stuff, but the only current guys that I've enjoyed anything from are Kanye West and DMX.

that about sums up the debate against it, from what i've seen here anyway.

a guy i used to work with once said to me, "i don't even consider that crap music. it's just noise, nothing more. and that's a FACT."

i never spoke to him again. he showed his true ignorance and idiocy in a few sentences, and spared me the trouble of getting to know him.

I am an old-school fan myself. Roots is pretty good.

Kanye West is pretty good and so is Jay-Z.
