Jay-Z is number 1 on my list of top 10. He is so much more smarter lyrically than any rapper I've heard from next to KRS-One.

1: Jay-Z

2: Krs-One

3: Jadakiss

4: Canibus

5: Redman

6: Biggie Smalls

7: Black Rob

8: Ghostface Killa

9: Fred Da Godson

10: Murda Mook

From 7-10 they are always changing but from 1-6 it's solid.

On the GOAT list he is probably top 10-15

everywhere between 10-20. He may well be overvalued yet he remains a robust rapper. can no longer call many solo rappers who've had 3 albums as reliable as useful Doubt, The Black Album, and The Blueprint.

Gucci mane

Waka flocka

Chief keef

Rocko

Slim thug

Some of the best lyricists of all time right there.

he is somewhere in top 20

He's not even close to Pac

Let's put it this way-

Jay-Z isn't even ALMOST in my top 10...

He ain't on my list.

Somewhere over the rainbow....

Down the toilet
