After looking at my rap links some may have put me in a box. I love all music. In fact Im in a garage band on the weekend. Here are my raggae jams. These are more classic then modern day. They just are good vibing jams. These are certified jams from the Rasta nation.
Love Snoop but not taking him seriously as a Raggae artist.
Of course Bob
Is this love

This guy is well known in the Rasta world. He covers eighties hits. Never wrote anything but his performances are full of emotion. Hes an oldie but goodie. Might even bring a tear to your eye. Think of your first love or your love what have you.

This is a song by Rihanna before anybody knew who she was. She made island music before she became commercial. Only song I like from her.

They combined the anger and outrage that was given first rap voice in The Message, politicized it and brought it on a mass scale. Quite frankly, even when making a pop hit ( 911 is a Joke) they were always, always making a point. They wrote lyrics that had substance and was literally shouting to be heard.
There are better lyricists, beat makers and, obviously sellers; there are no better rap artists.
Can't Truss it
I've always liked the positivist of KRS-1
Super nat and krs1 at rock the bells were epic!
Emoses: that's exactly why I specified best lyricists of all time, and added NAS. While his punchlines aren't as wild as em and bigL the ideas and messages he raps about are on a new level.
*this thread may get out of hand with lists of great songs soon, BRING IT!

Hard to pick a song or two from any of the greats from any genre.
From Johnny Cashs don't take your guns to town and Folsom prison blues to big Ls devils son and 98 freestyle... It doesn't do either justiceyou gotta hear waaaay more!
