Around 2 years ago billboard magazine released an article called "Top 10 Rappers Of All Time." This article was about billboard's choices for the top 10 best rappers of all time. This caused a huge controversy on social media due to the fact that Tupac Shakur (known as the greatest rapper of all time to many) was not included on the list.

Another key detail related to the list that made people mad was the fact that their were barely any west coast rappers on the list. Most of the rappers from the list were in fact from New York.

This made west coast natives angry. I personally don't think this is the best list of all time rappers, not even close to a good list actually. The fact that they didn't put Tupac on the list doesn't bother me that much because he only had 2 albums and it's not logical to say that Tupac's 2 albums are better then a person like Kanye's 9 to 10 albums. But if we were to use this logic then biggie wouldn't necessarily deserve a #1 spot on the list either. So their are definitely some flaws in this list. I personally would have a completely different list that might piss even more people off than billboard's list but that list would be an opinion based list. A persons favorite rappers are not really arguable but a top 10 best rappers of all time is. To give you a sneak peak of what a list like this may look like if it was made by me, I'll give you a top 5 best rappers of all time.

1. Kanye West
2.Jay Z
3.Nas
4.Andre 3000
5.Tupac Shakur

XXXTentacion or Jahseh Onfroy - is a 19 year old rapper currently in jail for armed robbery, aggrivated battery and as well domestic abuse. His music is currently becoming more and more popular with each second. You may know of him due to the trending hashtag ' #FREE X ' which many of his fans/supporters are using, representing the idea that he should be released from jail. X was interviewed on No Jumper, a youtube podcast that interviews different musicians of primarily the rap genre. After being interviewed hype arose about him and he's still gaining more and more fame while still behind bars. Some of X's most hype songs are: - Look At Me - #Imsippinteainyohood - ILOVEITWHENTHEYRUN - RUN UP ON ME And of course some others. Many people tend to question X's name, either as to what it means or how to pronounce it. He said himself that his name 'XXXTentacion' translates to XXX - he claims he himself is addicted to pornography and tentacion is Spani

Kenn - Your Choice

Kenn Fuchs Salad Fingers You may have by now heard of the popular, strange and creepy series which lingers around youtube going by the name of 'Salad Fingers.' Theres a total of 10 episodes, each of them getting weirder and much more sinister as you watch. The video series was created by a man named David Firth, and the animated series's main star is a slender green man who goes by the name of Salad Fingers. The series is quite hard to follow and is pretty creepy in my opinion. Strange and funny at the same time. There's no exact story to follow but people on Reddit and other pages are trying to figure out the story behind it all, and here's what they're come up with. Salad Fingers was a soldier in WW1 and suffers with PTSD and commonly hallucinates. He lives alone and everyone in his life has either walked out on him, died or something else. In the series you can see him commonly speaking to himself and associating with voices in his head, himsel
