Jay-Z

Jigga is up there as having the GOAT career surely.. Fact is the majority of the stuff he puts out is better than the majority of the newbies today..

Nas too for that matter, Nas & The Beastie Boys latest track > anything I have heard from the new boys of 'hip hop' these days.
 
Its a little bit sad that many younger people don't even acknowledge MC's like Rakim, Kane or Krs-1. When people now talk about Hip Hop Groups rarely are Public Enemy mentioned.
The younger generation really don't get how important and ground breaking these artists were. It takes a nation of millions is still the most important hip hop album ever made.
Nas's Illmatic and Eric b and Rakims paid in full changed Hip Hop and kept it breathing.

big pun's a great shout too, shame he died so early, fantastic flow, amazing lyricist with amazing wordplay

"Dead in the middle of Little Italy little did we know
that we riddled some middleman who didn't do diddily"

also, while names like game are being thrown about for the GOAT, id just like to add chamillionaire, hes better than game so he must be at least in the top 5 right?
