From the 1980s to the 1990s he recorded several classic albums with the Geto Boys group; and in 1991 as a solo artist he made his first classic album “Mr. Scarface is Back”. His ability to tell stories is nothing short of a poet. He has collaborated with the late great Tupac Shakur, Nas, Jay Z, Bun B, Ice Cube and KRS-One. With a Grammy Award and seven classic albums under his belt out of eleven, he very much deserves to be #1 on this list.
2. Andre 3000 – One of the most incredible and underrated MC’s to ever breathe into a microphone. He is the rapper that everyone wants to collaborate with.

And last but not least, Lil Wayne has continued to amaze us with his nonstop work ethic and superior rap skills as an artist.
5. TI – The self-proclaimed King of the South has been fighting for the respect of hip hop fans and his peers since he first burst onto the scene in 2001 with his regional hit single “I’m Serious” with the sensation from Reggae Beanie Man. on Ghetto Vision Records. Since then, his resume has been nothing less than a work of art. From multi-platinum plaques to Grammy Awards to movies, TI has fought hard to establish himself as one of the best southern rappers the South has ever produced. Even though many people disagree with the claim of him as the King of the South. There’s no denying that TI has fought hard to establish itself as one of the greats.
