Jpero had a pretty good list, Skyzoo is good, I'm listening to the Beautiful Decay right now. My personal top 10, not necessarily the best, but my personal, in random order:
Common, Del, Josh Martinez, Gift of Gab, Murs, Slug, Appentice, Fat Lip, 2Pac, Krayzie Bone, Rakim, Moka Only, Abstract Rude, The Grouch, Grieves, Blue Scholars, Slick Rick
Actually, thats much more then 10. I better stop there even though I'm leaving out some classics. Oh wait! I almost forgot about Lil Wayne, Kayne West, Jay-z, Diddy & Gucci Mane! They are awesome!! 
First time I saw Blue Scholars on this list - well done, shelby!

Disagree with Pac being emulated by every rapper. And Pac was not the realest. He brought the drama upon himself and reveled in it. He moved out west and got even more ink for that west coast gangster image. Definitely not the realest....
Rakim sprinkled his songs with 5% info that the masses have yet to understand to this day. An icon for sure.
Andre (you know him as Dre 3000, not 2000). He's not only lyrically untouchable in the south, but damn near untouchable anywhere. The intelligence of his mind puts the listener in complete awe.

I agree with you on not every rapper imulating tupac because i dont see tupac on this skinny jean sh-t going right now.but he he influenced most of hip-hop today example.....(jarule-no need to explain,Jay z did the remake of me and my girlfriend with beyonce,nas-got your self a gun and was gonna make a album with him before his death,friend of biggie before he felt he was betrayed,snoop dog would have not have been with his wife if it was not for him,treach from naughty by nature best friend in the industry,Deathrow records went to shit after his death, was glorified on babyboy the movie, was mentioned by a number of ya favorite artist as one of the best,still selling records after many years after his death ......could keep going and going.........
as for the REALIST mc i have to say there is no rapper till this day that displayed his bravery,courage and showed it to the world publicly like he did example.....born from his mother from the Black panther,growing up up lived in several hoods cross country from NY to CALI, expanding to bigger ventures early in his career by acting(juice,poetic justice)Got shot five times,spent time in jail and still did not give a @#%k,when he spoke to the media it was a message like how he preached in his lyrics,He showed how dirty and raw you can get with your nemisis(Biggie) by making one of the best diss songs and taking pictures with his wife during beef.Tupac went out like a soldier stuck to his gun and showed no fear no matter what the cause.truly lived thuglife, by telling his future and fate in his music and publicly.Name a rapper spitting at camera reporters and saying fuck the police now of our days. There is a lot of rapper talking this and that on record, but if they get too famouse and publicity they DUMB DOWN.Tupac kept it real and political, could have been an activist maybe better than Rev.Al sharpton and would have been proud of a black president,( he also made a record about that.)He saw not only what was going on in the world in that time but he also saw the future.

1. Pac - By far in away the best of all time..No discussion in my opinion. On personal taste he's my favorite.
2. Biggie - Not one of my personal favorites but some of his music was outstanding. Definitely number 2.
3. Eminem - Absolute genius I think he is only getting better..This next cd should be great.
4. Jay-Z - Again not a favorite of mine but he has much respect from me. I do like Jay but I don't like his music as much as I do these others.
5. Lil Wayne - If this idiot could stay off drugs he could move up. Lyrically he is above all right now. I like his style. He could move up, but he needs to stay off the drugs. I know some people probably disagree with this one but this is based on personal taste.

Immortal tech has deep lyrics.A good lyricist but he needs to get on the mainstream. I want to know if he could come out with a hit song.He is a underground rapper who needs to blow up or else he wont be heard down the line.Look at cannabis he is nice but dudes dont want to hear him any more cause he did not break that shell in making constant hit songs and being in the mainstream, his time came and he blew it.

I respect what he has done but if you want to be known as the best you need to make it to the show. Its like a hall of fame minor leaguer breaking records but never gets to show his stuff in the major league.How many 1 Draft college basketball players turn to bench warmers a bust in the NBA.... How many hiesman trophy winners are a bust in the NFL........same goes with HIP-HOP when your actually in the game will your words actually fill madison square garden like JAY-Z.......ask your self that quest. When he Immortal tech gets to that level let me know....IT should not be be a problem according to what your saying .
