Saint AquinasOne rapper citing this s*** means it the most important album ever now not to mention Lupe damn near influenced by everyone
Nas was never a superstar in rap. He was a star yes but that was because of illmatic. IWW sold off the strength of people anticipating it because of Illmatic. If IWW made nas a superstar like you say, the perception of the album wouldn't have to change a decade later. You don't know your history at all and it shows
Nas was a superstar in rap. All of his albums besides illmatic up to nasir have sold nothing less than 150k first week

Objectively. Likely Big but thats it. And even then you kinda have to put an asterisk cus he died.
I can see every other artist making a better case even Drake, Wayne and KanYe

most these artists you named had influence that only really lasted for one era or for one citys scene in hip hop
DOOM influenced not just internet rappers or underground rappers, but literal mainstream rappers like Drake, Tyler or Carti to want to rap. His influence went way beyond a scene or an era. He been influential since the 90s to now.
The only rappers on this list that can say the same are Kanye, Pac, Nas, Jay, Em and Wayne
You know damn well ur capping if you think these niggas listed here only got influence for one era.

Nooooo I was wondering where he was, what did he say?

Literally one of the most influential rappers of all time, just because he wasn’t mainstream doesn’t mean he wasn’t influential bro. GFK literally invented his own way of rapping, you should listen to more rap instead of Eminem and Love The Way You Lie
Op is giving us his mainstream rap list
"who influenced my latest favorite generic popstar is the best rapper 🤓" type beat

Drake, Wayne, Eminem, Pac? Yes
Kanye, Hov, Big? No - Mar 30, 2021
Hov >>>> Nas

Op probably thinking like
"Miley Cyrus wore a pac and big shirt so they're obviously more influential 🤓"

GFK is not that influential at all. Most of his influence comes from wutang as a whole. He had a cool run for like 5 years but that's it. And he was mainstream for a bit. He had hits. He did his thing. He just doesn't have a case for top 5. You keep making this about Eminem for some reason. I don't know if this is your attempt to come off as a "im actually black" or "i listen to real rap" take but the mental gymnastics in this post just prove you don't know what you are talking about. You can slurp Tony all you want. That's fine. Hes a legend. Just not top 5. Get out of your "im 19 but wanna d***ride 90s rap cause im from staten island b" phase.

exactly, we are talking about hip hop, why does a rapper have to be super mainstream to be in the top 5 conversation, and also he is talking about Nas like he is Aesop Rock or Del
