Im not saying who I think is the worst rapper alive because like Fate L said, its no such thing, but there is still some people I dont like.

These are all the rappers that is weak as hell IMO:
Freeway weak as hell, I cant stand to here him rap.
Shawty Lo weak as hell
David Banner weak as hell
Birdman weak as hell sometimes
Fat Joe weak as hell sometimes
Chingy weak as hell
Lupe Fiasco weak as hell(I only like about 2 of his songs)
Ice Cube weak as hell sometimes

Lupe Fiasco is a modern god in lyrical hip-hop, ok, so maybe not god, but undoubtedly he is the most talented person to come out sense 2000. As far as Ice Cube, I don't listen to him much, but hes done a lot for hip-hop so he has my respect.

Lupe is the freaking man. D_Money loves lil Wayne like a god and he thinks Lupe sucks. So it's obvious he really doesn't know about real hip hop. That is what I was trying to say in my last post.

GOT DAMN! I didn't realize that a lot of people like Lupe some much, The only songs I liked from him were: Kick Push, Pressure, and Day Dreaming.

Ok...ok I'll take that back, he not weak as hell, I'll just say he decent.

Now this is sheerly an overstatement, Lupe is a good rapper, but he's not that lyrical, so just stop with this. I don't know how you can especially listen to as much rappers like Tonedeff, Immortal Technique, Tech N9ne and Rakim and still say Lupe is a lyrical god, because those others are far more complex.

That's very unfair to say.

He basically admitted that if you read on :P

Missed it.

"but undoubtedly he is the most talented person to come out sense 2000."

Still leaves my point though. Lupe is great, but god damn, he's not nearly that great.

You bring up an interesting point though, Lupe isn't nearly the greatest lyrically when I think on it a bit. He always has a strong message, and good flow, but the lyrics aren't so complex. Some of Nas' stuff blows me away lyrically, I had to listen to Hip Hop Is Dead like 10 times before actually comprehending the meaning behind some of his verses.

Yeah, a lot of rappers don't make sense to people but it's probably because of slang, you kinda need to consider that before saying they don't make sense. (not talking about here, but IGN for example, they always say Wu doesnt make sense...sometimes yea, but mostly its slang they dont understand)

People call Raekwon and Ghost trash for that, but at least for Rae, he talks in slang 95% of the time. You can tell in interviews, too.

most rappers make up slang to get popular like "Bling Bling" Birdman/Lil Wayne, but to be honest alot of people don't understand them and think they're jus making up words on the spot, but some are actually a message......

*Cough*B.G.*Cough*

There have been a few names thrown out there and one or two singles have been given as evidence for their 'garbage rating.' I say this is a bit unfair. Typically speaking, singles are among the weakest on the album simply for the fact that their spose to be watered down, they're spose to be catchy, they're spose to be implanted into your head. It's marketing. An artist can have the wackest single of the year, but unless you give that artist a thourough listening, you may look past the fact that perhaps the best song of the year was hiding out on the full album.

But... what do I know...

I think Im the only person on Code-X that likes LiL Waynes. lol

IMO Hes the best rapper alive because he raps with a unique style, and he uses good similes & metaphors in his rapping, and I always understand what hes saying when he rap, all his raps may not make sense to yall but they all make sense to me. But I dont only listen to him, theres still a lot of other people I like.

1.) LiL Wayne
2.) The Game
3.) Eminem
4.) Ludacris
5.) Jay-Z
6.) Busta Rhymes
7.) Snoop Dogg
8.) Fabolous
9.) Soulja Boy
10.) Styles P
11.) Birdman(Some songs he weak as hell, but some songs he decent)
12.) Ice Cube(Most of his songs weak as hell, but some is decent)
13.) LiL John
14.) Kanye West
15.) Twista
16.) Nas
17.) Az
18.) Ja Rule
19.) T.I
20.) Cassidy
21.) Lloyd
22.) Akon
23.) Wyclef Jean
24.) Juelz Santana

See theres alot of people I like other than LiL Wayne.

Soulja Boy is #9.
Nas is #16.

I'm sorry, I try to think outside the box and understand where people are coming from, but that's horrible taste no matter how you look at it...Unless your just listing them in no real order, then whatever. But you still can't call someone the greatest alive when you've only heard 20+ rappers (even if that's not all of them), I have hundreds upon hundred's of different emcee's from West, South, East, and whatever. You can't seriously call Lil Wayne the greatest alive...because you really haven't heard a single digit percent of the competition. I know that sounds harsh, but seriously...

No I just typed them in random order, Nas is waay better than soulja boy, and btw incase you didnt know, "The Best Rapper Alive" is a nickname for LiL Wayne, thats what everybody calls him, and he uses that in some of his songs.
