I'm not here to sway your opinion but your opinion doesn't seem to be logical if you say he "floods the mixtape market," which has been far from the case for years now, his tapes generally have bigger gaps between than compared to most other rappers. Yes the song is 10 years old and it's still respected, not many can get noticed after jumping on a Biggie joint.
It's clear we are listening to music for different things, you rating "energy and charisma" over lyrics, I guess Young Thug is in your Top 5 now if that is the standards to be considered a good rapper. Buck would appreciate all this overating you're doing tho because even the Unit says Banks is the best rapper out of all of them.
Check some of his old Hit 97 freestlyes, his bars was always fresh, no reading off the phone, no reusage of bars, dude is a true lyricist, can't be a top rapper because of your energy along, this hip-hop bro, bars are always required.
