I know this track is kinda out of kilt with the rest of the tunes in this thread but still, there's not many songs I have EVER heard that come close to being as articulate as this one, the lines about feeling like his brain is hanging on by a clothes pin, about how education hasn't given the vital skills needed for inner growth and how he feels betrayed by the system, it's actually pretty amazing;
This is also next level stuff
Others that I want to throw in that haven't been mentioned
Gift of Gab (Have people here not actually listened to NIA and Blazing Arrow? wtf?)
RA the Rugged Man (best multi spitter in the world and probably of all time, no fucking question, I challenge anybody to show me someone who can relentlessly multi the way this guy can)
Charlie 2na (swag)
Kweli (cus Reflection Eternal)
lol damn you must have one hell of a trek planned
seriously just reading those lyrics on the embed is sooooo cringe. Angsty, self-absorbed wankery.
and for the record, I was by no means trying to make a case for Wayne as GOAT, I was just saying the dude has released his fair share of quality music.

Lil Ugly's gonna turn into one of those cult figures lol, like how people see Tommy Wright nowadays
El-p hardly raps, and Killer Mikes albums sucked when he was still affiliated with Outkast. Who remembers A.D.I.D.A.S?
Ok he had his early phase but seriously RAP Music is one of the best things to have come out of hihop recently imo. Tbh thats why i said hes shaping up, cos i have high hopes but i know hes not there yet
El-P raps a lot man, hes put out a few albums hasnt he. Or do you mean his stuff is hardly rap music?
And you know what, im gonna add in Quasimoto too lol
El-P has more than I give him credit for if you count Company Flow...that being said I still dont think he's even close to a GOAT.
I didn't see you say shaping up on Killer Mike, so thats my bad, but, he's also 38 so I don't think he has much time left. RAP Music was good, so were the first two I Pledge Allegiance to the Grind albums...but he's still nowhere near the top.

yeah it could be argued that it's like folk music down there, which is cool.
it is cool, its their own culture.
But its still serious business. maybe just alittle bit too much purple drank
