You wanna talk who had the best lyrics? Maybe who had the best & most complex wordplay? You would be a fool to automatically jump & say 2Pac or Biggie. Lets talk William Michael Griffin Jr better known as Rakim. Rakim is probably your favorite rappers favorite rapper. Listen to a Biggie or Pac track then listen to ANY of Rakims track from the 80's and tell me there arent obvious similarities. Rakim was truly before his time. His flow was and still is the benchmark for all emcees. He could conquer any beat. Im willing to bet he could kill freestyle on a Mozart piece. Go listen to "Paid in Full" "Follow The Leader" & "Dont Sweat the Technique". If you cant see his greatness you probably have a couple of missing chromosomes. Its sad that he gets snubbed as one of the greats when its obvious that he is one of the most influential emcees of ALL time. While all yall are ENGULFING Tunechi's jock please take time during his forced hiatus to listen to a REAL Emcee.
