1-El-P
This guy has the best production of anyone on the circuit as well as some really great lyrics delivered with energy
2-Aesop Rock
Did you want a deeply layered metaphor? Cos you totally got one
3-Yasiin Bey (Mos Def)
The best that conscious rap has to offer, a shame he doesn't do more
4-Rick Ross
An enormous guilty pleasure but I love the character of himself that he's built up and the chill atmosphere
5-Kanye West
Wondefully arrogant with talent to back it up, an insane genius.
6-OFWGKTA
Childish but filled with energy
7-Lupe Fiasco
Somehow a conscious rapper hit the mainstream and we love him for it
8-Hopsin
Something new and vicious as hell
9-Kendrick Lamar
Super smart with lyricsa s well as having great flow
10-Killer Mike
Strongest on his most recent album but a competent guy with intense energy.
