Who's the best MC?

Many of us true hip hop fans find ourselves in the mist of heated discussions, pertaining to "Who's the best MC?". Now we all know it's our personal opinion, on who we think has the best delivery, skills, metaphors, beats, rhymes, or whatever you critique mc's on. I just think that credit should be due to the mc that is consistent in delivering the hip hop culture, the package. What package? The package of consistent good rhymes, hot beats, and charisma that we all love to see our best mc's have. Hip hop can not be judged on record sales, or popularity, we know this. Much of the time, our favorite mc is not even a worldwide phenom, or a Billboard Chart topper. I just don't think that the best can be based off a few good singles, or one classic album. There has to be some depth to back up your reasoning of who the best is. Personally, I love to discuss hip hop all day, it's my personal interest that I enjoy to do. I give all mc's a chance to entertain my intellect, and give me that excitement of analyzing the lyrical content. That excitement and interest comes, when that head nods, and that face expression comes on, you know, the face, like you smell something funky. Well you do, it's that banger, that joint, that oh my god ish! Many mc's can't deliver that now a days. The best mc has to be measured over the body of work they have created over time. Hey, your opinion is your opinion, but at least be knowledgeable about who you think is the best. It all is frivolous of course in the end, but across the world, whether it's blogs, on the street corners, barbershops, basketball courts, or any place where this is the topic of discussion, you can bet to have some interesting opinions from all walks of life. That is the power of hip hop. All day and all night!!
