  • Agelessly dope, fluidly incomparable, many may follow but the Leader leads. The "R" endures, eclipses those who dare to go off-the-dome...I have witnessed his freestyle devastation, words just drop from his brain to his tongue like a gumball machine. Oldschool, Newschool, this Brother is not just in Class, he's teaching it: Doctorate in Hip-Hop, Dr Rakim is the George Wahington of Mount Rushmore in this game - difference is, his profile cuts a better visage. Flow forever my man

  • OMG! The DJ break on this is ridiculous! Bring that shit back on today's Hip-Hop records, somebody, PLEASE!!!

  • al- rakim is a sura in the quran, in arabic it means the cave. lets hope he records more, because we dont need rakim in self imposed exile.................

  • GREATNESS!!!!

  • @23Tavarez rakim & nas shit all over biggie & tupac lyrically

  • @DeepInTheMobb eminem sucks

  • @23Tavarez Well said, I've been telling people that for years, which I've gotten tired of repeating & debating about who the best are I've never understood why practically. everyone says big & pac were the best ever. BULLSHT! They were way far from it. They were all hype. Regardless of order, my top three are RAKIM, BIG DADDY KANE, & KOOL G. RAP! Real True Legends of Hip-Hop!

  • @kahorepohaka Love that your givin a nod to Phife here, but Posdnous is the best lyricist from the native tongues. Pharoahe Monche, Aesop Rock, Azeem are 3 im my top 10. Couldn't agree with you more on Kool G Rap and Rakim though, Legends!

  • To appreciate Rakim you have to look at the time period he rhymed in. He came in the era when you had to be a true lyricist and he stood out among the best in the history of hip hop.
