Pharrell is a good producer, but he needs to stay off the mike. If he needs to get behind the mic, just stick with spitting hooks, like "I'm a hustler baby" on Jay-Z's "I just wanna love you (Just Give it to me)"...

people focus too much on the quality of or breaking down the meaning of rapper's lyrics. if the sound production and beat isn't there 9/10 rap songs will suck regardless if the best writer alive is rapping. the ability to dance to the music is a pretty essential part of hip hop's foundation, so i don't get why so many people are all about these art rappers with basic beats.

Noithing basic about Lupe's beats.

You may enjoy listening to the music but the thread is a debate on the worst rappers of all-time and has nothing to do with the beat.

It is all about lyrical content and delivery for me.

I'd rather listen to Lupe rap over a metronome then hear Lil' Wayne rap over a Just Blaze beat.

Not really in a lot of cases.

I'm not going to be dancing to NWA or Public Enemy.

Or Nas or Biggie or Tupac or Lupe or bascially any rapper who has had a brain and something more to talk about then just his jewlery/cars/girls/and his apparent ( and not believable ) admissions of baking pies, flipping birds and any other retarded metaphor you can think of about slinging dope.

yeah, biggie and tupac had no club bangers between the two of them. people just stop moving in dance clubs and focus on the lyrical content of songs like '2 of america's most wanted' and 'mo money mo problems'.

90% of their catalog is lyrically based and not a "club banger".

Just like all the greats.

but they do have some and also hardly distance themselves from party music with downright meaningless lyrics.

Again, not really. Pac was as close as it gets to having club banger music, and even then, the music had meaning.

The two are not mutually exclusive, but guys that do club-type music are generally guys who aren't going to give you much, if anything, lyrically.
