I know I can (I know I can) Be what I wanna be (be what I wanna be) If I work hard at it (If I work hard at it) I'll be where I wanna be (I'll be where I wanna be)

The "Fur Elise" beat completely made the song.

"The Cool" a concept album? Are you serious? LMAO Which is why I said, "unless you want to count Lupe's The Cool". The album has a concept, albeit a very loose one. Even American Gangster isn't a full blown concept album. I mean, it all has songs dealing with the "Gangster" type of lifestyle, but so does The Chronic. It's not like a Masta Ace "A Long Hot Summer", but I'll still call it somewhat of a conceptual album. "Jay-Z is #1 solely based on longevity, creativity, and consistency" If you're basing it on that, then I can't see how Tupac isn't #1. The only real thing Jay-Z has on Tupac is lyrical ability, and Jay-Z was never the best lyricist in the game. Oh, and Jay-Z was able to make fresh music because he didn't die. Rather than list who I think is the greatest of all time, the artists I think are some of the best out and I currently listen to are: DMX (Pre-Meltdown) Mystikal (Pre-Jail) Nas Lupe Fiasco Outkast (especially Andre 3000) Redman Little Brother Joe Budden (Probably the most underrated rapper out) Royce Da 5'9" Kanye (College Dropout/Late Registration) Ghostface Killah Jadakiss Juvenile Eminem Common The Cool Kids Dr. Dre (Classic material) Big L (One of the best lyricists I've ever heard) Not a big Joe Budden or Mystikal fan. Besides their singles, their ish was wack.

Don't need a Top 10. A Top 5 covers it all. Can't believe this hasn't been mentioned.
