like i said, 99% of the people replying here are doing so based on who they THINK they should be listing ahead of Cam. Most of them have never even listened to the majority of the artists they listed.


Yeah because only hypebeasts listen to Chuck D

How can you not list Chuck D as a top 10 rapper outta NY when he is mainly the reason why socially conscious hip-hop became somewhat popular in the early 90's. Inspired a whole bunch of cats from Dead Prez, Talib, Mos Def, ATCQ & etc. Chuck D sold more records, has more classic tracks, inspired more artists and is significantly more important an artist to Hip-hop than Cam.

umm Paris wrote chuck d's rhumes so putting him top 10 is like putting Ben Johnson top sprinter

You're not having an objective discussion because you're being subjective in refusing to believe that Cam isn't top 10.

Just like everyone else is being subjective in believing that he's not.

Honestly though...

Is Cam'ron a better rapper than Rakim? No. Jay? No. Nas? No. Biggie? No. Big Daddy Kane? No. OC? No. Kool G Rap? No.

And that list can go on and on.

but the question that no one's really answered is, "what's your criteria?" like when you make your top 10 list, what really areyou going by, and based on that are you really giving cam'ron fair consideration?

and you're not too smart are you, but back to the original discussion.

kool g rap, nas, mobb deep, az, jay-z, biggie, raekwon, rakim, big pun, ghostface killah

I feel like a lot of you are just naming rappers you THINK deserve to be above Cam. Really? Kool G rap? ghost? Kilah priest?! mega def isnt betterand EPMD is a group smart guy all of which cam is better than individually- hell as a group too.

You cant recite any lyrics from these rappers from their last 2-3 albums off the top of your head and i gaurantee it. Cam started the swagger movement aspreviously stated and doesn't even get the respect he deserves. Maino stole the "hi hater" thing from Cam too(see boy boy off purple haze),Cam's slang, way he dresses is way more influential than some of these guys you're mentioning. Dudes is straight up just mentioning old rappers to makethemselves seem more well versed on hip hop knowing damn well they dont listen to them. I'm surprised i didnt hear grand master flash or Kool Moe Dee overcam too.
 
Your Swag should not be any factor in determining of how good of a rapper you are just because you influenced people how to dress doesn't make you a goodrapper or cause just maino took hi hater from Cam doesn't make him him ultra influential. album sales should not play a great role because then 50 centshould be dragged in this convo (def not saying he's top ten) or some trash like soulja boy could be pulled into other rap convos. Being a good rapper should be directly determined by your bars on the track and if you bodied the track or not becausetruthfully a lot of that stuff is just the business aspect of rap and maintaining an image. with that being said Cam is a good rapper. has his bright spots forme its confessions or fire and S.D.E But Cam is not a top ten rapper not dead or alive. maybe he would be if he didnt have so much antics. but this isnt worldof if's. but some of you dudes wilding talking bout cam not top 50. Oh yeah no way he is def not better than pun either
