Top Ten Best Rappers of 2010
Eminem is a rapper with lyrics that are real and most of all make sense. He focuses solely on lyrics like a rapper should do and doesn't rely on controversy to sell records unlike Kanye West. He knows how to keep his lyrics real but still get his record played on the radio unlike Lil Wayne, Drake or the whole young money crew. He is definitely passionate about words and doesn't feel the need to mention weed every 2 lines like Wiz Khalifa. Eminem certainly is the most mature rapper on this list and is definitely deserving of the number 1 spot.
He is one of the few rappers that don't just rhyme words to make a song. Every song rather freestyle or on album is cleverly aimed at anyone that has made the mistake of bringing his name up. He blew away Drake, Kanye and Wayne on forever and even said as much while doing it. Drop the world and no love was no better for Wayne the way M tore up the track. When Wayne called Eminem out to do a song with him and followed it by please please pleease I don't want no beef I can't mess with you should be proof enough that M and Weezy not in same class
Full lil Wayne.. his high weed ass gotta go bakk to jail where he actually sounds smart. That's the only place he'll ever sound smart. Eminen is a true rapper and only he can compete with Tupac. Wayne was better few years ago, but never better than Eminem. Eminem's rap is meaningful and/or makes sense.
1. Eminem for Recovery the best selling album of 2010
2. Weezy F Baby born in a manger
3. Nicki Minaj for some great collaborations with other rappers
4. Kanye West for My Beautiful Dark Fantasy which received critical acclaim
5. Drake for Forever, Over and a decent debut album
Drakes verses take time to create, you see dreak is the best rapper to ever rap about love and relationships " fireworks ", 'best I ever had" "July" and "Say something" all talk bout his past relationships and what he's learnt. HE BROUGHT THE BEST METAHPORS 2 THE GAME.. even chris brown is stealing his style in his new songs. !
Drake. Obviously he's the new best rapper alive! No doubt this guy killed it in 2009 that was his year Drake has been nominated for several awards including Grammys, even being selected to perform at the 2010 Grammy award ceremony. Drake has also won several awards, including two Juno Awards in 2010 for Best New Artist, and Rap Recording of the Year. He's the best.
this man is the best. I may be 10 years old but I still know a good rapper when I hear 1. That sucka goes hard. When I heard his song fear and heard his Album Thank me later I was like BAM! He's probaly gonna make it as big as pac or biggy. And REALLY? you put eminem in front of HEARTBREAK DRAKE.
Drake is better than enimem rake has more albums and drake made his own songs drake raps about his life because in over he means he think in 2012 its gonna be over SO BEST RAPPER ALIVE IS DRAKE
lil wayne is the best! he is the best rapper alive I love all his songz! there amazing he's such a great rapper... I like eminem 2 but lil wayne is the bomb! all his songs mean something. I just can't stop hearing his songs! they say I'm obssed with this guy!
Drake is overrated. Eminem just screams. Lil Wayne has amazing and talented voice and lyrics. Eminem better bow down to the real rap god, because Eminem's just the wannabe rap god.
Lil Wayne best rapper alive enough said you can't compare him to anybody just drake maybe. Should be 1. Lil Wayne 2. Drake 3. everybody else
Lil wayne is the best rapper in our generation. Eminem is catching up though, so is Drake. But right this second, Lil wayne has the stage.
We're talkin about 2010 right? So let's see who had the best album. Eminem's Recovery was good but was mostly built on the strength of its collabos. Lil Wayne released a garbage rock album and I Am An Overrated Stupid Human Being. Drake's album had no variety and rapped like he was a high schooler handlin fame for the first time. So that leaves Mr. West, possibly the most hated man on the planet at one time or another. mybeautiful darktwisted fantasy got a 94 on metacritic. I don't know wtf metacritic is but it gave Soulja Girl a 57 or somethin on the DeAndriana Way, so it's a reputable source. oh yeah JayZ's album dropped in 2009.
MY BEATIFUL DARK TWISTED FANTASY WAS A MASTERPIECE FOR KANYE TO SAMPLE ARTIST LIKE BLACK SABBATH (IRON MAN) AND KING CRIMSON AND MOJO MEN AND THE TURTLES WAS AMAZING. THE SEXUAL ARROGANCE HIS MELODIC THEMES BON IVER, WHAT A DARK BEATIFUL TWISTED FANTASY IT WAS HES ON THE LEVEL OF ARTISTIC CREATORS HES THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE HIS LYRICS ARE BANNANAS HE SPEAKS REAL. HERES SOME OF HIS LYRICS, I AM THE DAY ICE CUBE MET MICHAEL JACKSON, SO MUCH HEAD I WOKE UP TO SLEEPY HOLLOW,
Laugh out loud at all the 12 year olds here, lil wayne, gucci mane and drake are some of the worst bubblegum pop crap artists ever to become famous. Drake isn't even a rapper, he's a singer, Lil wayne doesn't rap either, he just mumbles horrible punchlines and metaphors, and I'm not even gonna start on gucci mane.
Kanye and em are the realest artists and best best rapers in the mainstream
I'm just going to bee 100% Honest. Eminem isn't good anymore, Drake is alright but he will be forgotten, and lil Wayne makes really bad music. Kanye has always made good music, even 808s cause it had love lockdown, but it doesn't even matter cause this is list is for 2010's.
Big wiz fan as a college dude... But you always gotta admit overall rapping you gotta give it to em. Lil Wayne second is depressing as well as drake so high, but he is really good still!
wiz is for sure number one and anyone can relate to him. TGOD
Listen to some of his new album Distant Relatives, which is one of the best albums of 2010
Great flow, lyrics make sense
Nas is the king of rap
Very very very very creative.. He can sing and he's shown that he can spit with the best of em.. Put's a lot of emotions in his music and is just genius.
bob and lupe are the best out right now, cudi wiz and others have potential
Most creative rapper, he has the most diverse music of all rappers alive!
Creative, clean, and makes me want to hear more. Big fan.
One of the most talented MCs of all time with a great discography
HE MAKE SONG THAT MOTOVATE THE STREETS TO GET MONEY. ALSO HE MAKE A MIX TAPE EVERY WEEK. YABO LOW KEY YES YABO. MOBILE ALA IN THE HOUSE AND NO IT AINT NO HORSES DOWN HERE JUST 28INCHES FEETZ FOR THE IDIOTZ
Gucci is just Gucci, from drug dealing to southern top star he did it, his chosen beats kill all the other rappers beats plus he got the best flow from all the current rappers theirs no comparing... BUR!
Gucci mane is one of the realest rapper/trapper today. His lyrics is relevant to a whole region of people plus he killing the mixtape, jewlery, and whip game. Skeeurrt!
gucci has to be one of thebest rappers alive. he went from being a drug dealer with some dope freestyles to being on top of the game. in my opinion, gucci is #1
Best RAPPER of this generation. He is this generations version of Tupac straight up
The best lyricist of the decade, come on, he's at least in the top 5 on the list.
How are you gonna let BOB be above this man, come on son
Why is he here? He is seriously better than Rick Ross!
I like rack city by him
He s the best
Boosie is the best of the best! And the realist rapper alive. The reason why he should be number 1 is because he real and raps about real life and his struggle. Boosie the next tupac! No doubt about it.
How is this not higher. Raw dropped this year and that album is amazing.
It doesn't getter better then this ill mind
Now THIS is rap. It isn't dead after all
Drop it like its hot, drop it like its hot,
50 you the best.. I loveu fifty.. you masive... 50 you ma favorite you are MY GOODDD I lovee.. you are the reason I'm alive ggggg unit... 50 cent is e HERO
He makes the show go on. His raps means something. Eminem is great but he is not the best rapper ever though. I'm not saying he's worst than lupe but he doesn't need to be.1 on every list on this website. Lupe= for kids in the ghetto, that's good. 50 cent, I saw his interview with oprah and he seems like a nice great guy, even my mom likes him, but his rapping equals bash, cut, steal, shoot, kill, and every cuss and insulting word created constantly. Nicki minaj acts like she belongs in a mental hospital and says b! Tch a lot and ho. Tyler the creator= jokes about rape, incest and homosexuals, that's terrible.P. diddy=um, well, this guy just sucks at rapping. Usher= doesn't even rap. Tech n9ne= a show off and my friend is always talking about how great he is. Snoop dogg =awesome rapper but shooting people wit dr dre and cussing a lot and saying the n word like 90% of all these rappers on this list, really? J. Cole= good storyteller but say the n word 70% of the time. Tyga= I like him ...more
Nobody on this list is NEAR Kendrick's level except Nas and Eminem. Rick Ross has no flow and his lyrics are mediocre. Lil Wayne is about as bad as drake but he does have a few good 1 liners. Drake is good at story telling but can only rhyme the last words of lines. He has no compound or internal rhymes. Kanye has a few good lyrical songs but a lot of them are like drakes with the mediocre rhyming. Gucci just shouldn't be on the list. Big Sean's only good lyrical song is I do it. Jay-z is a biter like Wayne except they can't prove he bites even though he does. Jeezy can't rhyme but can story tell... Same with j cole. I ain't on Kendrick's dick but he averages 5 times more rhymes per song than anybody on the list except Eminem who is a word smith. Nas doesn't even rhyme as much but they are more unique. Kendrick's storytelling is great because it's complex and deep af
Kendrick lamar should be number 1 on this list, because he is capable of implementing deep and complex metaphors, that most the greats aren't even able to do, not to mention, he's studied the greats like Tupac, snoop dogg, and dr dre, and even if he doesn't end up being number 1, he should still be above lil Wayne
Kendrick Should Be #1 If Tupac And Biggie Had A Baby It Would Be Kendrick And his life is so inspirational and he's gone through more than any of these "Rich N***as" Like Lil Wayne that irritates everyone in there right mind and drake tries to make like his life is hard when he grew up in a mansion and is insanely annoying with his emotion over girls and eminent is great but I just think Kendrick should take first place
Kendrick is #1 eminent is great but he takes first place have you heard "sing about me, dying of thirst" dang that got me spazzing
