Yeah. So I decided to write here my top 5 rappers list. First of all, I would like to apologize for all my grammar mistakes. Aftere these years my English is still in learning process, but who cares. Fuck ya'll…here we go.

#5 Esham

Esham is the main reason why I love horrorcore so much right now. Like everyone can say what they want, for me is Esham the only godfather of Horrocore/Acid rap.

I must admit, Esham's newer shit is not so good as his previous material, but come on, he is still a fucking underrated legend.

The main reason why I love Esham so much is the fact he doesn't give a fuck at all. Just listen to his 90's work like 'Doubelieveingod?' By Natas, or just look on the cover of 'KKKill the fetus' LP. I think I really do not have to mention his flow, lyrics, beats, or voice. Everything is just pure trippy acid.

#4 Danny Brown

I remember the first time i heard Danny Brown. It was on Esham's DMT Sessions and I really didn't like him, but I was curious if he sounds so cartoony on all of his tracks. I typed his name into youtube, played his song 'Re-up' and suddenly became a fan.

What I hated in the first time now I really do love. I even like it more than his lower voice position.

The main reason why I like Danny Brown so much is the fact he is so specific for me. The combination of his untraditional voice for hiphop, crazy flows over anything and classic Detroit lyrical themes (Drugs, Abuse, bein broke etc.) creates a really special hiphop experience.

I mean Danny is crazyass molly poppin' dude. Just look at him.

#3 MF DOOM

Yeah, I don't have so many plays when you look on MF DOOM profile, but try to add up another projects like DOOM, Madvillain, VIktor Vaughn, JJ DOOM and King Geedorah. See?

When I first heard DOOM's tracks I was like what the fuck, but after some time I started to understand it. His flow is very specific as well as his abstract lyrics. And his Voice man. Like come on. Who doesn't love DOOM's voice? I mean, just go out alone with you mp3 player, put on Madvillainy and fucking vibe to it. After few listens you gotta be a fan.

What I found curious about DOOM is the respect he has in the culture. Like, he raps about himself in third person and everyone loves it. If Kanye would tried to do shit like that, he would probably ended up like egoistic son of a bitch. But DOOM can do that. Why? Probably because he is a supervillain. And I love it.

And do not forget. All caps, when you spell the man name.

#2 Kool Keith

Despite the fact I don't listen to Keith so much right now as I did a few years ago, he still has a special place in my chart for me. KK/Octagon/Dooom is definetly most bizarre rapper in the rapgame like ever. Who else raps about doo doo, pee pee, Spaceshpis and lasers in one track?

But thats just one point why I love Keith. His flow based on offtime rhyming possibly changed my whole view on rap. It took me some time to get into his weird ass style, but right now, I mean, Octagonecolgyst is in my top 5 rap albums.

I must point out, I love rappers, who put themselves in various characters and keith offers me this shit like in 50 different forms, plus he combines it.

So yeah, if you tried to listen KK and you really did not get into his music, give him one more chance. When you will concentrate on his flow a lot, you will hear it, and you will love it. Shit's guaranteed.

#1 Tech N9ne

Well, this should be kinda obvious from my last.fm charts. But why is Tecca Nina my #1 fave rapper? Because he is the whole package for me. Just Look at these few points.

1) His technique is probably one of the best in the game.
2) He has got good lyrics (I am not claiming that every track he made is a lyrical miracle, but there's a lot).
3) He is productive as fuck (releasing material/doing shows/guest appearances).
4) His loyalty to his fans is remarkable.
5) He's got a good ear for beats.
6) His live shows are possibly one of the best in Hip-Hop .
7) He even can sing!(If you dont believe me, check him on Kaliko's track 'Get off').
8) He is a great Businessman (Just look at Strange music).
9) He really doesn't need some commercial success (like look what he did without some radio or MTV shit)
10)He sounds great over every style of music (Just try to listen Kabosh, His appearance on Ill Bills album, or Table and chest press)

And that's just what came to my mind right now. What makes Tech's music even better is definetly his incredible chemistry with Krizz Kaliko and whole Strange music label. I really don't know what should I mention more bout my personal god of rap, so I'll just cancel it like that: CHA!

So yeah, this is probably my Top five rappers right now. I want to expand this list on another 5 rappers and make it Top 10. So yeah, that's it. Bye
