Add Big Boi and Method Man to my list. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The Game is garbage. Nas is the best in the game right now. Followed by Jay-Z. </div> I can understand how Game can be annoying, but I think he's far from garbage...as of right now I'd say Game > Jay Z.
<div class="quote_poster">Carter Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">One of the best rappers is in the title of the thread.</div> LMAO he's one of the worst rappers i've ever heard that actually had a platinum album, good to see Gotskills agrees with me....he is piss-poor
Who da hell is GotSkillz? I meant more annoying because of his name-dropping scheme he has on every track.

As for de la Rocha, he's been doing a lot of collaborations. He doesn't produce his own material anymore, but technically, he's still "in the game." According to wikipedia, the latest thing he's up to is a 'Save The Farm' rally for South Central Farmers, where he had some new rhymes about the government's response to Hurricane Katrina.

maybe its not 2 of the best but 2 i like...i like eminem cuz of the albums hes dropped before and same with DMX but yeah i guess they arent the best right now but i still stick with my other two Nas my alltime fav. and Lupe Fiasco
Lupe doesn't have enough material to be called the best yet, and no he doesn't write for Kanye West, Carter. It's Nas.... <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">I can understand how Game can be annoying, but I think he's far from garbage...as of right now I'd say Game > Jay Z</div> How? The only strong point Game has is his delivery. Where is his wordplay, concepts? All he does is name drop and he is not better than Jay any day of the week. Wayne's random punchlines in songs>Game's pointless name dropping in songs.
"The game" has been over for several years. Sad how the best rappers of today are Common, Lupe Fiasco, and GFK, not that they are bad musicians but compared to the besst hip hop artists from 80's to early 2000's they're very average.

Also Lupe just released his first album so how can you compare him to somebody who dropped in the 80s? Common has also been around as well.
