I think he really really relates to Home Alone just for the title.

So, instead of doing actual work i need to do I decided to go through and tabulate all the punishments handed down by Essay. Not counted: prelim warnings (1 each) for BigD and Rod. Also, Essay was "

I'm assuming my jokes are valued at .77 of a man's.

BigD, you split an infinitive.

 

Essay, I bet I can make a better list of your favorite rappers than you did.

  1. Red Hot Chili Peppers--that part in that one song
  2. The Game or 50 Cent, you get confused
  3. Will Smith
  4. Nelly
  5. Pitbull
  6. Bob Marley--Legend
  7. Sage Francis
  8. Brand New
  9. Slick Rick
  10. Jay-Z, and only on Tidal

I don't think the list is terrible, but I would argue that any top 10 rapper list has to include Rakim and Nas. I don't think TI, Snoop, Nelly, Drake, or DMX would make the cut on mine although I'm sure you could argue any of them as borderline top 10.

 

To be fair you stated you don't listen to a lot of rap so that is probably why you picked more mainstream rappers instead of some of the lesser known but infinitely better rappers out there. I'm fine with any list that doesn't include Lil Wayne or 50 Cent.

I couldn't do a "top 10 greatest MC" list, because my hip hop range is too limited ( though wider than Essay's). Like, Tupac would not be in my personal top 10, because I've listened to very little Tupac beyond his radio hits. I understand his cultural significance, but I never bonded to him, the way many of a slightly younger than me generation did. Likewise, I really like Rakim, really respect him, but I don't ever rock Rakim these days, and would be unlikely to. Same with Nas, and other all time "greats" that won't be on my personal, as of right now list. This is just a taste thing

 

So, what I will do, is make a list of my top 10 favorite MC's right now

 

1)Biggie

2) Kenrick

3)Jay Z

4)Killer Mike

5) Ice Cube

6)Kanye

7)Andre 3000

8)Big Boi

9) Kool Keith

10) Kool G Rap

I don't know if I could do a top ten of all time list and feel good about it because there's so much I haven't listened to. And I think most of the 80's "legends" are pure trash regardless of the fact that they are "pioneers". I could do my favorite 10 albums to listen to or maybe artists but so many people only have one album I really like but that album is a classic so, idk.

 

All of this with Essay's permission, of course.
