I have no idea why I'm doing this (more than likely boredom) but here's my list of the
top 5 SOHH emcees EVER.. I've been peepin' the site off and on since like late '98, so I've seen alotta come.. I've seen alotta go.. but lemmie kick this **** off proper like in no order..
1.
Da Warden/Confusion and or Buddah Mac - Ok, I cheated.. I had about six in mind and since these two sorta kinda resemble each other (don't hit) me I'll put them together.. they're both ridiculously talented (although Buddah loses me more times than I care to admit) and are probably two of the most profound lyricsts I've ever had the honor of studying.. I say studying, cuz they on some deep **** usually and I have to read it about 4 or 5 times over to grasp the peice.. but their some sick cats and it SURE WOULD BE NICE IF THEY'D DO A COLLABO OR SOMETHING.. *hint hint nudge nudge*
2.
Myth Killa - This cat was on a whole 'nother plane.. seriously, I used to be blown away by the amount of skills this kid had and he was young as **** too (like my age

).. his flow/wordplay/lyrics were all there..
3.
Da Queen Of Espionage - Q of E is an enigma.. she's like 80% emotion and 20% talent.. don't miscontrue that as saying she doesn't have talent cuz she's probably got more in her pinky than I'll ever have in my entire body, but she's probably one of the most emotional writers I've seen on her.. You read that **** like "Damn.. that's heavy".. She could write a joint about her running over a dog and make YOU feel bad about that **** (but not me cuz I'm too gully for that).. Oh yeah, and she's cool as **** too... and stuff..............
4.
Da Mercinary Solja aka Intellect aka Merc_Cuban aka Whatever The **** - Dre pisses an ungodly amount of folks off, as well as receives an extrordinary amount of hate, but NO ONE can discredit the work he put into this board.. There was a point and time where this ***** would be batting like 6 or 7 cats AT A TIME..

Easily one of SOHH's greatest battlers ever.. Also look out for his album droppin' soon (Check the Audio Lounge for details)..
5.
Metaforce - This cats wordplay was RIDICULOUS.. EASILY my favorite poster of all time.. He was accused of being an Eminem clone (although the influence was apparent) but I never thought he just jacked dude's steez.. money was just plain nasty with the lyrics.. we used to go back and forth waaaaaaaaaay back in the days in those numerous classic FLOWZONE cyphas and he was just murdering ****.. damn, that cat was cold..
So there you have it, say what you will about my list, and if you want post your own, just include WHY you chose that person in order to keep it movin'..
