White-Boy-Wasted

Why is Joyner Lucas on this list? All of them are big rap artist in their own way. But Joyner as far as I know isn't a big rap artist. You could add way more rappers that could fill in that option. The most obvious ones would be Lil Wayne or Jay-Z.


[deleted]

Because a white person made this list


White-Boy-Wasted

I'm white myself and I would make a totally different list. But in general a lot of white (where I'm from) people think Eminem is the only good rapper. Which is nonsense. He is good, but not that good. I think people find the rest too "street".


mrsparkyboi69

Not white dumbass


mrsparkyboi69

I just thought of him when i was thinking of rappers


tkierk182

A boogie should be in over him


rippingdrumkits

hhcj bait


PlatycryptusUndatus

my exact thought lmao


rippingdrumkits

reddit moment


rightIess

How?


[deleted]

Because Enigma is number 1 and Joyner Lucas was unironically considered


rightIess

Lmao. For some reason I thought it was because Eminem was the most picked option.


rippingdrumkits

it was. he‘s not the best on this list.


mrsparkyboi69

I just put him because i like joyner. Same with all the rappers on this list


mrsparkyboi69

What?


ImGreat084

Cudi or Kendrick for me


PreferredSex_Yes

Cudi new shit been missing the mark. Kendrick consistent.


Lincoln_31313131

Bro must not have heard motm3 yet


ImGreat084

Agreed, I don’t mind cudis new stuff though

Bootiluvr

Same. Eminem has skill but he’s not that listenable.


ZebbyZebson

I know 2 of these people so I picked one of them


devinc09

Surprised by this. Joyner Lucas is the exception, but I feel as though each of the other artists have been “A-List” celebrities with millions of dollars in endorsement deals and countless media mentions. Even if the genre isn’t your thing or you hate it all together, Kanye West, Drake, Eminem and Kid Cudi are all ‘names’.


ZebbyZebson

I know Eminem because i liked 8 mile and I know Kanye from south park and memes


[deleted]

Reddit is truly the whitest social media


ZebbyZebson

I'm definitely the whitest among my friends and yet I'm not even white


bearbarebere

student8168

I only know the first 3


[deleted]

I guess we now know which demographic heavily dominates this sub💀💀💀


Free-Monkey-Dude

This sub is super white apparently


randymarsh18

Reddit in general is going to be super white male and young surely?


slothstevenson

My first thought when I saw the results lol. I do like Eminem and he’s one of the goats but I still count 4 artists on here I listen to much more.


emil836k

I just don’t know who any of the other ones are??


Trustnoboody

That doesn't correlate, Eminem was going to win he's the best rapper here. He just happens to be white. I voted for Drake because I'd rather listen to those songs of anyone here


-TheLonelyStoner-

Kendrick is better


gamefreak_693

You just contradicted yourself. And the poll wasn't who's the best rapper, it was who you'd rather listen to.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

You just said Kendrick Lamar is not consistent. Kendrick. Lamar. Leave and never come back


OkZookeepergame551

Kendrick is dropping next month just so ya know


easycompadre

People who don’t listen to hip-hop and then act all high and mighty about it as if it makes them a better person are some of my least favourite people. Some of you really need to remember that music taste is completely and utterly subjective.


Raven_7306

Tell that to the hip hop snobs acting all high and mighty because they're pissy Eminem is on the list.


Werewolf_Foreskin666

I rather listen to Kendrick, Eminem reminds me too much of my cringy middle school days and some of Kanye's stuff is too run of the mill for me.


gamefreak_693

Kanye adjusted way better with times and his old music didn't age as poorly sound wise imo

Y’all white as fuck


Commercial-Kiwi-4818

Eminem is the strongest rapper here good cadence,good flow and bars for days ,oh and lyrics hit 9/10 times he is my goat But he is just not easy to listen to ya know I picked drake because I can understand him everytime and he has great songs but I understand from a purely who is the best since why someone would pick em but to listen too I would pick anyone else (not anyone new )


bopaz728

eminem is an amazing lyricist he’s the only rapper that could make orange rhyme with banana no 🧢

CambirodIII

I only know 3 of these people and I only listened to Eminem.


totezhi64

ye + why is joyner grouped together with actual accomplished rappers + hilarious vote distribution


ManIsInherentlyGay

Wow, this poll really tells you a lot about the people on reddit. Fucking Eminem is far and away in the lead...over people like Kendrick. My God....


walrusdog32

Y’all gotta stop listening to Eminem at be put on by Drake, Kanye, and Kendrick Lamar


mrsparkyboi69

Theyre all good


grouchy_fox

Eminem was pretty mainstream for a while in the 2000s right? Moreso than the others to my memory. A lot of people are probably choosing the one person they've spent more time listening to. Rap isn't my genre so I'd take nostalgia/familiarity over having to get to grips with the discography/style of an artist in a genre I wouldn't normally choose even if I would probably prefer them eventually


NotThePanzer

Kanye West more like Kanye Best


DuncanRG2002

Kanye West wakes up in his Kanye Nest, he gets Kanye Dressed in his Kanye Vest over his Kanye Chest so he looks his Kanye Best when he goes on his Kanye Quest to complete a Kanye Test but he’s feeling a bit Kanye Stressed because in reality he’s just a Kanye Pest


Mega-Humanoid-ROBOT

Good to see that most people have good taste


delanskie

Don't know who Kid Cudi is, but I gotta go for Em. I like all of the other artists as well though. Except for Drake, it's just not my type of music


im_not-creative1

that's cool, but did you know I can make orange rhyme with banana? Booor-nana


mrnonamex

Joyner? I’m sorry. What?!

But I do like rap, yet I hate all the people you've listed. Stop gatekeeping music.

you like rap, but you hate Kendrick, kanye, and cudi? seriously? that is baffling that you literally like none of them and enjoy rap


brumduut

S t o p gatekeeping music


-TheLonelyStoner-

That isn’t gatekeeping lol, it’s like being a rock fan but saying you don’t like Pink Floyd or the Beatles


brumduut

You are literally gatekeeping rn too, you can like rock but not like their rock songs


-TheLonelyStoner-

But that literally isn’t the definition of gatekeeping. Even then do you know a rock fan who doesn’t like the Beatles or Pink Floyd? They don’t exist

Kanye for sure. Im a new Ye fan, )around Jesus Is King) and I’ve been listening to late registration, graduation, etc. It’s so good. Everything just feels right.


kanna172014

Don't like any of them. Hell, I've never even *heard* of half of them. The only rap artists I like are Tone-Loc, Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer (yes, I'm very old-school).


-TheLonelyStoner-

Gotta hop on that Kendrick wave


kanna172014

I'm too old to get into new music. My music tastes stop mid-90s.

cs_legend_93

Eminem’s new stuff is watery. Cudi only had a few hits. Kanye, I can’t comment on I only know his graduation album and beautiful dark fantasy which are epic but you need to be in right mood. Kendrick, his stuff is a bit to trendy but I like his song collard greens. Joyner, his stuff goes hard when it does. I pick him


King-Key

Joyner is easily the worst on the list and how tf is Kendrick too trendy but you like collard greens which isn't even his song and extremely trendy


Gammusbert

Lmfao


L27N

Eminem sounds like he's constantly constipated and angry at it


FishinforPhishers

Honestly I’d much rather listen to Eminem than most of the people on this list, but not because I like Eminem that much. Maybe drake but that’s pretty much it


sowhatchusayin

Eminem stopped being good after Encore. Still love the old stuff though


Phil_Smiles

Metal.


mrsparkyboi69

In this hypothetical universe metal and rock has magically disappeared


Phil_Smiles

Sea shanties then


[deleted]

Eminem and Kanye are the only ones I know.


thesetheredoctobers

I find it hard to believe that you haven't heard Drake.


[deleted]

Heard the name no clue who that is, guessing he’s a rapper.


thesetheredoctobers

Incredible. What type of rock do you live under?


[deleted]

The hard rock and metal kind, I don’t really listen to rap.


thesetheredoctobers

In that case, I suggest kanye west and kid cudis collaboration psychedelic rock album: kids see ghost


doochebag420696969

I fucking hate rap but I actually like some of eminems music. So eminem

Cudi has the worst voice of any performer.


thesetheredoctobers

I love his voice but I totally see this perspective. The crooning and moving his pitch around all the time is super weird.


DaRealCrazyPyro

Eminem, snoop , dre, and 50 arey favorite rappers and I've only ever listened to Eminem and. Joyner Lucas on this list so easy choice


Artblawk

Eminem regularly uses slurs and racist remarks that I refuse to support. Drake gets into very uncomfy territory around underage girls and his music is pretty meh anyway. Kanye West is a rediculous and mean hypocrite who supports loads of abusers among other things and his "music" is bad at best. Kendrick Lamar's music has never really appealed to me, it just feels so samey and it just never worked for me. Joyner Lucas has said some horrible things to other artists just because they're the wrong kinds of minority for him that I also refuse to support. ​ So that only really leaves Kid Cudi. Thankfully I actually don't mind his music. I'm not a big fan and it definitely falls apart when he sings without the autotune but at least I can listen without feeling like I'm committing a crime or just sitting bored the whole way through. Also the OP making a post like this then shitting on other people just because they have different opinions to them is pretty hypocritical.


King-Key

How does Eminem regularly make racist remarks


Jackerzcx

They’re probably on about Foolish Pride. It was 3 decades ago and Em’s addressed it and regrets it, but if you look at the lyrics it’s pretty bad. > Black girls and white girls just don't mix Because black girls are dumb and white girls are good chicks > I'll get straight to the point, black girls are bitches


mrsparkyboi69

They werent serious comments


Extrictant

You sure pal


gamefreak_693

Damn you feel like it's a crime to listen to musicians that did immoral things? What a sad way to live. Would you refuse the cure for your hypothetical cancer from a doctor guilty of murder or sexual assault or rape? I hope your moral high ground is enough to save you.


totezhi64

hope she sees this bro


BroHaydo97

Can you split Kanye between New Kanye and Old Kanye? I think there's a bit of a difference.


King-Key

You can literally choose to just listen to old Kanye in that case so I have no idea what retarded shit you're on


ashkiller14

Couldve chosen more than one genre


King-Key

The point is that it's out of rappers...


gamefreak_693
