Slick Rick
http://www.xxlmag.com/online/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/slickrick.jpg


I think these guys have the best voices to grace the mic. Shout outs to Big Daddy Kane, GZA and Christopher Wallace. I could only put 4 images up in here so they get listed here. The end.

Method Man definitely deserves honorable mention

Method Man definitely deserves honorable mention

I thought about it, but I decided against. He's up there though yeah.

and Andre 3000

I could seriously do without Slick Rick.

I'll take Nas, Pac, Snoop, and Too Short.

I could seriously do without Slick Rick.

oh come on!
no way
it's legendary.

I like Eazy's voice too.

I could seriously do without Slick Rick.

:killyou:

Rick has one of the greatest, most recognizable voices in rap. That's why he's the greatest storyteller ever....nobody listens to your ass if you have an annoying ass voice.

That is one of the big drawbacks on Canibus. His voice sounds like nails on a chalkboard.

Not to me. Best story tellers are Nas, Biggie, and Ghostface in no order. Each have a great ability to put that exact picture in your head IMO. Some people like different voices.

yeah i would have to agree that Ghost is one of the best storytellers. no doubt.

Nas is bomb too. perfect example is that track, Blaze a 50.

Lil' Dap
Gza
Mos Def
Rakim
Big Daddy Kane
Del the Funkee Homosapien

I loves me some Nas, Ghost too...but those guys ain't touchin Rick The Ruler as far as storytelling goes. Voice-wise too. Nas has a pretty monotonous voice.

Rick is unlike anyone.

No Luda or Busta?

the award for most monotonous voice goes to Cormega. hands down.

Method Man definitely deserves honorable mention

definitley.....

the award for most monotonous voice goes to Cormega. hands down.

Wrong, Guru is the self-proclaimed "King of Monotone". I actually like Cormega's voice, TBH.

the award for most monotonous voice goes to Cormega. hands down.

He and Guru would fight it out for that honor.

It's not even necessarily a bad thing. I like both Mega and Guru quite a bit.

Wrong, Guru is the self-proclaimed "King of Monotone". I actually like Cormega's voice, TBH.

Guru's voice may be monotone but it has an interesting enough sound in itself that it doesn't get boring to me. i could fall asleep to Cormega. i'm pretty sure i have.

haha word....you posted this like a sec before me.

shyne has a cool voice...

Gotta throw Redman into the convo. One of the most animated voices to ever bless a mic.

Speaking of monotone how about Eric Sermon? But he was still real nice with it.

Speaking of Redman. Keith Murray had a great voice too.

8Ball has an amazing voice for the rap game though. I have always thought that. Low, rough, kind of ominous....

Lloyd is proof that you don't have to be even remotely good looking to get relatively famous within the RnB realm.
dude is ugly as a mother****er. every time he takes his sunglasses off i shudder and pray to god that he puts them back on for his own sake and the sake of the non-blind general public.

Busta has one of the most recognisable voices in the game.

Got to love a bit of U-God.

hah you must have disliked his fathers looks too huh?

his father was never relevant to me

now Lloyd is all over BET n **** with his ugly ass face and i'm like ugh...shudder.

pharoahe and big l have perfect rap voices
and the occasional deep throat(guru/scarface) is good also

Loso and Shyne.

Rakim

Big Daddy Kane


Biggie


Krs One


Method Man



Hey, no one mentioned Sticky Fingaz?!

pharoahe and big l have perfect rap voices
and the occasional deep throat(guru/scarface) is good also

I think they both have ok voices...big L didnt really have a good voice but it was hard to notice that because of how great his flow and lyrics were. Pharoahe Monch also has a great flow and great lyrics.

I dont know how anyone could say prodigy doesnt have a good voice. Were talkin about voice, not lyrics or flow.

I also gotta say 50 Cent has a great voice and a great flow.

*waits for 50 haters to get mad*

So we gonna act like pharoahe monch and guru have good voices? :dry:

haha Mac! Monch DOES have a good voice
and i never said Guru's belonged in here, i just said that Cormega's was more boring :P

Don't hate me, but i actually like Mega's voice, and disagree, Guru is more monotonous.

Is there no love for U God?

this one is easy, Jadakiss.

Ah man, lets agree to disagree, that guy has the most monotonous and boring voice ever.

For mainstreams mc's it has to be:

Rakim
Dmx
Busta Rhymes


My favorites are:

Vinny Paz

Immortal Technique


Tech??
Really??

ugh i can't stand his voice. he's always *****ing. shut up already. we know about the government cocaine. now write a ****ing happy song for once.

haha Mac! Monch DOES have a good voice
and i never said Guru's belonged in here, i just said that Cormega's was more boring :P

Pharoahes voice would be ass if it wasnt for his flow...and i dont know how anyone could possibly have a more boring voice then Guru. I never noticed it really when he was rappin over premier beats, but some of his other songs i cant even listen too without falling into a deep sleep. I agree about Immortal Technique, he needs to shut the **** up with all his political rap and find something else to rap about. His voice is terrible.

I'm surprised only two or three people mentioned method man.

not to be a dick rider, but that voice is pretty grimey...

I would say his voice is above average but his flow is great

I would say his voice is above average but his flow is great

I've heard online on many hip hop boards his voice combined with his flow is the reason many people like him alot. thats one of the reasons for me.

not to say he has the best voice ever, thats pretty hard to say. Above average is fair.

i respect that opinion though...i should have added "in my opinion" to my post, because i could see why someone would say his voice is one of the best.

oh no. i'm not trying to be an opinion nazi. lol

i'm just saying i've see people say that around, that doesn't mean its true.

down with the opinion nazis....

don't listen to me, do what you want.:headbang:

I felt like i came across as an opinion hitler though...

no. actually i think all of us are opinion hitlers, its part of being human.

cuz i do it too. damn. i lost. :pat:

E40 has the worst.

I like Jeru's vioce, he hasn't been mentioned, Lord Finesse, Biggie, Mc Ren,
both dudes from MOP.

and of course Scarface.

i'll proudly dick ride in relation to Meth's voice.
i think he has one of the best, no question.
after seeing him live and watching that voice come out of his mouth, i was beyond sold.
i love his voice. not to mention the fact that it's sexy as ****.

one great thing about Method Man is his energy. nobody and i mean nobody!!!!!!!!!!!!!rocks a stage like meth do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tech??
Really??

ugh i can't stand his voice. he's always *****ing. shut up already. we know about the government cocaine. now write a ****ing happy song for once.

It's true than in his old tracks he always has a whiny tone/voice.

But from revolutionary volume 2 i think his voice got much deeper.

As for a happier song:

Lord Jamar has a SICK voice.

rza and canibus are fighting for the worst voice

At times Em's voice is really gay. Waiting on res comment.

I'm a fan of both of them, but I think they got weird sounding voices

bobby digital is one of the most talented people in music, just saying he wasnt blessed in the voice department. he makes it work though.

muh favorite rza verse.

I always liked Q-Tip, Mos Def and Andre always stand out for me.

At times Em's voice is really gay. Waiting on res comment.

yeah he definitely loses in the voice department

I think Capone would have to be a top contender for worst voice also. He has a great flow and lyrically he is good, but that voice is something else eh?

Kweli also isn't the nicest on the ears.

Magoo has an annoying voice but I can't stop listening to it.

For his style of rap, I think Vinnie Paz has a sick voice.

Dr. Dre and Ice Cube both have sick voices.

big daddy kane
common
pac
rakim
method man
scarface

are the best voices

Magoo has an annoying voice but I can't stop listening to it.

you find it annoying?
i love it!
i think it's so original.
but then again i am one of the few people that happily bumps full length Quasimoto albums...
