Top five hip hop artists. Go.

thats impossible! but here is a few off my head
Lupe fiasco ( paints a picture with words)
K-0S (does it all, and keeps it true to original hip hop)
Zion I (just makes you feel good)
the roots ( quest love = best drummer )
mos def ( free styles and deep)
talib Kweli (great live + black star album years ahead of game )
tribe called quest ( changed way people raped + conscious)
de la soul (OG's but still making great music , AOE:bionics)
brother ali ( this man could change the world )
lauryn hill (unpluged album 2002, most raw and real show ever )
cunning linguists ( underground been around a while )
aesop rock ( abstract imagery, labor days is a great album )
common ( Chicago, visionary for what hip hop could be )
krs one ( the father ! he is history and is still active in hip hop )

if i missed someone big let me know and if you say weeezy i will be forced to lecture.

Ask me anything
