Holy.thread resurrection!

Female G.O.A.T. Roxanne Shante. No doubt. No argument. The person who got me into rap full stop. McLyte's next best but not really close IMO.
Male G.O.A.T. How many hours of my life have I wasted over this??
Rakim. A game changer.
LL Cool J. Bought a new attitude to hip hop.
Chuck D. Changed the attitudes of countless youths around the world.

I'd struggle looking past these. There's cats that might have better technical skills, but, no one stands taller than them I reckon.

I want to throw Naughty by Nature's Treach in this mix as one of the greatest.

Black Thought.

Live, he's insane.
Technically outstanding.
When he goes he f***ing goes....check '75 Bars', 'Web', 'Boom', 'Thought@Work'...etc etc....

The man is incredible and he's a nice fella too, real humble cat.

Total Wreck is one of my all-time greatest jams.

some MCs are just mindblowing live - if you ever have the opportunity to see Homeboy Sandman he just kills it. DUDE CAN RAP. FOR DAYS. PURE ENERGY. Love that. Pure just living for hip hop!

Word Up, I missed out on catching him live a few months ago. Count Bass D is a must see live. So much energy it's insane. He's like Hip Hop's one man band. Rocking the MPC, Turntables, Micpro and even the Church Organ when he breaks out the Count Cape.

Greatest female emcee? Hands down, Roxanne Shante.

Damn, greatest female MC? There are so few to chose from and the ones that I thought were good didn't last too long.

If anything, Lady of Rage has to be the one in my book. I can't get down with too much of the Latifah or Moni Love stuff.

The greatest female emcee is Drake.
