3. Big Daddy Kane
4. Ghostface Killah
5. Killah Priest
6. Rakim
7. Nas
8. LLCoolJ
9. Jeru
10. Chuck D

I'm telling you, the best MCs are from New York. That's indisputable.

Other regions might have their own sound, which makes for a good balance but when it comes to straight spitting bars, No other region is seeing the 5 boroughs.

Too bad bars aren't really appreciated anymore like that

Now u need to sound like future and drake to get a hit
