    Yeah, in any interview I've seen with him he seems to think that everything he says is some sort of profound "truth", tough to watch!

    I like some of Kanyes music but for the best part he is the biggest d*ckhead that's ever graced hip hop.

    If I never had to hear another TCQ song again I'd be a happy man!

    You answered your own question, personal taste! I appreciate they are technically proficient rappers who are popular, they're just not my cup of tea! I'm more into the Wu, Nas, Mobb Deep, Lost Boyz, Pro-Era style of New York hip-hop myself!

    Tyler The Creator. I don't think I've ever heard a song of his that I actually like. I just don't get him at all, I hate all the beats he uses and I'm not a fan of his flow. I can't understand how he has such a huge fan base.

    Big L (but 'Ebonics' is a favourite, go figure)
    Drake
    Tyler, The Creator
    Kendrick Lamar
    Lil Wayne
    Lil B
    MC Ride (Death Grips)
    Jay-Z
    De la Soul (I think J5 improved on their formula... :hides: )
    Most Wu-Tang lyrics are abysmally dull/generic bar a few verses, the music saves them.

    Some surprises on this page. Music really is subjective. I personally don't like Jay-Z for the most part, i could probably make one EP of tunes i like from him from his large catalog of albums, but apart from that he annoys me.

    Roll deep - may not be acclaimed but are popular and their albums are quite bad.

    That's funny, I like Big L a lot and I think Ebonics - while clever - isn't a great song really (another seemingly unpopular opinion). It's not one I'd revisit much at all, and certainly poorer than most songs on 'Lifestylez...' in my opinion!

    Yeah, takes all sorts I guess! I like a lot of Jay Z's stuff, and as far as the number of high quality albums any rap artist has put out, I think he's up there - though my hip-hop knowledge would probably be second to most on this forum! On the other hand, I'd have a similar feeling towards 2Pac, could probably whittle his whole career down to 8 or 10 songs that I get a kick out of.

    I can't warm to Kendrick. His delivery feels very inauthentic at times, particularly the "I'm angry my parents don't understand me" Eminem flow. He's not bad, just not for me.

    Kanye I can take in small doses but I don't enjoy very much either.
