you know they say lil wayne is the best rapper alive and thats true but he's not the greatest rapper to ever live. when tupac rapped he rapped from his heart and told about his struggles and how the life of a gangsta really is and any more these days he seems to be fading from the music industry. i think tupac wanted to see the world change for the better and every one ignored his efforts. 50 cent is a wanna be tupac and i say that because tupac got shot so many times and didn't die and look at 50 cent he says he got shot 9 times and he tries to act a lot like him and i honestly think that tupac lives on in us all. if i had the chance to meet tupac right now i would because inspired me to give every one a chance no matter what race or religion that they are. if the world would learn from the way tupac rapped then the world would be a much better place.

Lil Wayne the best rapper?
Behave LOL
Best is hard when it comes to rap and this question has been asked on so many websites it's unbelievable, i will try to answer anyway:
1. Eminem - Hands down the best white rapper alive due to various flows, content, tracks produced, tracks made, charisma and natural ability.
2. Tupac - Always a strong contender due to his various flows, great story-telling and content, charisma, natural ability and overall prescence.
3. Big Pun - Great flows, great multi-syllable wordplay's and really holds the title for best latino IMO, although he did overlap (punch-in) so much due to his weight which can be heard in some tracks. Thats just cheating im afraid and proves he would'nt be able to perform those songs live.
4. Nas - Intellectual, charismatic, great wordplay, consistent level of quality over the years and smashed Jay-Z which is always a bonus.
That's about it for now.
Cons

The greatest rappers ALIVE (Tupac is not alive, no matter how controversial that statement is, lol) are INDIE rappers. For one, you know they're not in it for the money. Most of them rap about real life ordeals, not cars, hos, grills, and garbage. One of my favorite rappers is Immortal Technique. He makes a lot of political statements and does a lot of charity shows. There are also S.O.N. (the Son of Nunn) and Patriarch. I'm not saying they ARE the best. I'm just saying most INDIE rappers are there on top. Their only problem is the lack of publicity.
