A debate that pits a rapper in their prime against any and all competitors. A debate that considers both the short-term and long-term implications of an artist’s impact.
It’s rap’s imaginary Hall of Fame, existing only within the abstract conversations we have about it.īut there is one debate that every rap fan not only loves to have but ought to have. Rookies and new jacks need not apply-this debate is strictly for the catalog artists, people who have shifted the culture in previously unmovable ways, artists whose music has permeated and resonated over an extended period of time.
The favorite rapper discussion is cool and all, but the coveted distinction in hip-hop is still being named the GOAT (Greatest of All Time). If you’re rooting for the rookie of the year or a washed-up veteran experiencing a career resurgence or someone no one has heard of as your favorite, then so be it. Rap fans tend to get into arguments with other rap fans, and it doesn't take much more than someone declaring their Favorite Rapper. Your favorite rapper is a personal preference, one that requires the most subjective defenses.
