5 GREATEST RAPPERS OF ALL TIME??

[YoungVicious]

Aight yall...I am requesting the help of my siccness comrades for a high school assignment. Im doing a pretty big project (as in I dont graduate if I fail it)...and its all about rap. So one of the parts is a research report on the history of hip hop. So Im taking a poll for the top 5 rappers of all time. This aint who your personal favorites are...my question is, who do you think are the 5 greatest rappers who ever lived?

DISCLAIMER: This poll is EXCLUSIVELY for the cats on this board who have REAL knowledge on hip hop (people like Tim or Purebred Hogg, to name a couple)...I dont wanna see no Lynch, Droop, Woodie lists, aight?

Much luv yall
