Biggie doesn't have a legacy. Fat bastard only put out two albums. Both were solid, and dude had skills, but he would have faded into obscurity if he hadn't been shot. |

Depends on how you look at it. I tend to judge top rappers on how many classic(really top drawer) albums they made. Biggie has one, Nas has one, Jay Z has one(the blueprint imo). I don't really care how many they made total.
Nowadays, because of the massive amount of music rappers make due to mixtapes, I go more by their complete resume. For example, none of lil wayne albums are really top drawer(carter III is marginal) but two of his mixtapes (dedication II and Drought 3) are right there. Its also easier to see rappers evolve these days. A rapper like Curren$y has changed alot over several mixtapes before his first album. Lil wayne was mediocre but changed remarkeably over a crap load of mix tapes. Rappers nowadays get more practice in a way..
But yea Biggie has a legacy. He had a jackhammer like flow..which might have got tired over several albums but he is still one of the best ever.

Well yea everyone has their own take on it. My favorite rapper, Ghostface, imo has 2 in supreme clientele and fishscale.
Of course most of the rappers I like don't have classic albums and sometimes not even close. They either have great voice control and wordplay(lil wayne), are funny(devin the dude, quasimoto) or have great production continuity and a good sound (the clipse, currency). Although i'd say the Clipse have one classic too, come to think about it. |

'Hell Hath No Fury' or 'Lord Willin'
I prefer Lord Willin, but Pushhhhhh is one of my favorites. I listen to a wide variety of hip-hop
Mos Def
Cudi
Cage
Slug
Eyedea
Sage
Wiz
Talib
Ghost for sure
Etc... |

I don't think we've had any drag queens in mainstream music since Rupaul's Supermodel. So I guess that's pretty cool.
Though I have very strong feeling against auto-tune. :/ |
