Hip-hop Sheep List

By Kabura Ng'ang'a

Joe Budden has been trending on twitter and this time, it has been for the right but funny reason. There was a list of GOAT rappers that was released and it contained 50 names and Joe Budden was rumoured to have put it out. However, Joe has refuted the claims and even finds it funny of the rankings, including his own ranking.

Joe was ranked as the third greatest rapper of all time, just behind Jay Z and Nas, in that order. Black twitter finds it funny that Joe was at 3 while Lil Wayne was at 38. Biggie, one of almost everyone’s favorite rapper came in at 8 while Pac, the other of everyone’s favourite came in at 15. The other shocker was that Fabulous, who came in at 6 ranked higher than J. Cole at 19 and K. Dot at 10. A super name in hip-hop that is Ludacris was nowhere in that list of 50 artists listed. The other shocker for many hip-hop rappers would be realizing that not a single woman hip-hop artist made it to the list, not Lauryn, Lil Kim or even Foxy Brown, none of them made it on there.

A lot has to be re-done on that list but in the meantime, who are your favourite hip-hop artists of all time?
