about the artist

Hip hop is a form of musical expression and artistic subculture that originated in African-American and Hispanic-American communities during the 1970s in New York City, specifically the Bronx. DJ Afrika Bambaataa outlined the four pillars of hip hop culture: MCing, DJing, B-boying and graffiti writing. Since its emergence in the South Bronx, hip hop culture has spread to both urban and suburban communities throughout the world.[9] Hip hop music first emerged with disc jockeys creating rhythmic beats by looping breaks (small portions of songs emphasizing a percussive pattern) on two turntables, more commonly referred to as sampling. This was later accompanied by "rap", a rhythmic style of chanting or poetry presented in 16 bar measures or time frames, and beatboxing, a vocal technique mainly used to imitate percussive elements of the music and various technical effects of hip hop DJ's. An original form of dancing and particular styles of dress arose among fans of this new music. These elements experienced considerable refinement and development over the course of the history of the culture. Wiki

Nas is one of the Greatest next to PAC and Biggie, although I think his lyrical greatness needs greater beats to me especially on "Life is Good" but Escobar truly has written many great chapters that are truly "Classic"

Hey BP, (Explicit Lyrics) Original Artist Form For History Sake
Let⿿s Do A Big, A Bold, and Brave Tribute only as we can do to some of the most Successful and Influential Rapist to CEO the industry has seen. We have put together some blockbuster hits from these masters of the Mic. We decided to keep the selections in their Original, Explicit Lyric form for the sake of the art of Hip Hop and the Spirit of its True Origins, Culture, and History.
Let⿿s take a listen back to, Jayz, Tupac, Biggie, Nas, Ice Cube, Outkast, Warren G and Nate Dogg, Snoop, Kanye, and Busta. Observe where their skills and art form was in their youths and early careers. Listen to the lyrics, what was on their minds. What where they going through then, to give them the motivation to become today some of the top CEOs and movers and shakers, rap and Hip Hop will ever see. They have longevity of caeer and that says a lot in such a competitive industry.
We do realize some others did not make this list, as we have so much talent, so let us know your inputs as to your pics from Rapper to CEO.
Combined today they are worth a Multi -Billion dollar industry by themselves.

The Moral to the story, NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER!! AND NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY!
