Overrated = Lil Wayne

Dude still hasn't made a classic album, and when i listen to his music i end up asking what the fuck does this dude raps about. He is a bunch of one liners pieced together and music has no train of thought

Underrated = Master Ace

I don't think people understand how consistent dude is, he has a great ear for beats, making songs, and executing concepts.

 

[BobOblah]

Damn, Biggie and Nas most overrated?? Thats crazy to me, but I guess I asked for yalls opinion....

All the rappers who were killed are overrated by some fans, so I can see why you think Big, but calling Biggie the MOST overrated??

Overrated :: Tupac

Underrated :: Rapper Big Pooh

Big Pooh just started really doing his thing on The Get Back album. Before that he used to struggle hard with forcing rhyme schemes. I can respect your opinion though.

Overrated - Snoop

Underrated - Big Boi

I have never understood why people like Jada. maybe I'm missing something cuz I can't get past one verse cuz I can't stand his voice. and Redman is in my top 10 alive

Wow. I gotta agree with that Ceelo. See, I wouldn't include Masta Ace and any of those other mostly underground heads. In the circles they receive praise in, the level of their praise is usually pretty accurate. Actually, I'm gonna take that back. I think you might be right about Masta Ace as well.

Most overrated is Biggie by far noneed to go into why as I think are about 10 threads explaining it lol

Most underrated would be Lupe, He just does not get that shine and stays consistant with hits and still no respect for those skills

I didn't wanna say Lupe as my underrated choice for fear of appearing cliche, but he def doesn't get the recognition he deserves.

His Skill to Props ratio is way outta wack...
