@HipHopRepresenter I don't know about the best but he's definitely up there with the greatest. He's got such great flow and lyrics. People say Lil Wayne is the greatest lyricist but obviously he's not. I'd say Nas and Mos Def definitely are in the top 10. Keepin it real
@laxjoh people need to stop bitching about their top 10 and trying to convince others about what their top 10 mc's should be. It's all matter of opinion and of which music you listened the most to. Fuck top tens, I go for a top 50 with all the old school mc's who kept hip hop living for a while.
i will continue to listen to this song even when im dead

Lyrically the best hip hop song ever recorded? It is for me. MF Doom is the only rapper alive who can compete with Mos Def.

@TheSmokefaceKillah Mos is a big fan of DOOM and I'm sure Mos doesn't listen to "n00bs" /watch?v=zTBIvIDnnv8
