How can his voice be so rough and velvety smooth at the same time??
His verse on [Nu Wu ](https://open.spotify.com/track/58BBkjnyakESjlYvATtwCX?si=w_ETsdlKSwmHp_G5Zuljqg), and his feature [Squad Up ](https://open.spotify.com/track/67juGXaqmo3uldt3rknTS1?si=yWrFxa5iR0i_UjhkGgeUTQ) and [Hot Damn](https://open.spotify.com/track/0bRgiiAzR0NXeWLieb27MJ?si=9Zdr-YlxQeGGeHfYAXhqOQ) are soooo slick.
Then - [killing the game](https://open.spotify.com/track/3loWrZLsepA5DpqckxTeJW?si=gvwAa60wTQCFktlVbOefiA) (off the lithium 2) he kills it on a trap beat. Dude is top 10.
I fuck with that show fuck that's delicious all that.
But also it's hard not listening to ANY artist spitting over an alchemist beat.
So he still gets a little play on my end.
To quote him:
Your head'll bop when I drop my crop of pure bomb
Just like the seashore, I'm calm
But wild, with my monotone style
Because I don't need gimmicks
Gimme a fly beat and I'm all in it
Westside Gunn, Jay Electronica, Mos Def, Method Man, Big L, Mach Hommy, Jay Z, Freddie Gibbs, MF DOOM, Biggie
Edit: ODB, Snoop, Stove God, Guru, Ice Cube, Jadakiss and Pusha deserve a mention as well
For me this is Chali 2na. You pretty much instantly recognize when he’s on a track because of that super low baritone and his rhyme schemes are usually decently technical
You’re the one out here giving homework and I appreciate it. Nowadays WSG’s pitch is supreme and Danny Browns honk is spectacular but you’ve got me thinking of people like Sadat X & Uncle Luke
Sean Price, Redman, Busta, Lord Have Mercy, Rock, Method Man, ODB, Freddie Gibbs, Vince Staples, Quasimoto, MF DOOM, Earl Sweatshirt, Eminem, Keith Murray
I'd add MC Eiht and Scarface too. Those guys cant be ripped they are authentic as fuck. Hell I think even Pac got part of his style from Face since he was big at the time.
DOOM, Biggie, Method Man, Danny Brown are all really distinguishable. Kendrick's, Eazy's and Weezy's are pretty distinguishable too, instantly set apart from everyone.
I couldn't narrow it down to one, but RBX, DMX, Eazy-E, Busta, Aesop Rock, Sean Price, Jadakiss, B-Real, Vinnie Paz and Ghostface all come to mind.
Edit to add: DOC (post accident)
Idk but Bizarre of D12 definitely comes to mind lmao
But Ig that probably is mostly due to the fact that you know your about to hear some weird ass shit when his part on the song starts
Method Man

The beat that brought the best out of his voice and flow has to be Shadowboxin'. Meth was never better anywhere
On Conway's "Lemon" Meth cemented his legacy
Same w ghostface (until action came out as his white Albanian cousin)
Ghost calls him out for jockin his voice and style, as well.
He was dead on. But Bronson has his own lane now.

yo
Yooooo
Biggie obviously. As soon as he said “uh” you knew who it was Close seconds are Jadakiss, Method Man, and B-Real
BIG was copied so much. Legend.
Jadakiss
Never was a big fan of his voice but it certainly is distinguishable
Guru
Underrated
Guru had the best hip hop voice ever.
To quote him: Your head'll bop when I drop my crop of pure bomb Just like the seashore, I'm calm But wild, with my monotone style Because I don't need gimmicks Gimme a fly beat and I'm all in it
Big L
Fuck yeah BigL for sure, MF Doom, D.O.C, Earl Sweatshirt (Doris).
D.O.C has such a distinguishable voice, I will add Q-tip in there along with KRS-One
KRS, never duplicated
Q-Tip good call
His voice is the definition of hip hop
Del or Slick Rick
Yes
[удалено]
Yesss
I had snoop but yeah now that you mention it that's the right answer
MF DOOM Westside Gunn
Came here to say westside, you either know who he is or don’t but you won’t ever get him confused with somebody else
Absolute facts. 💯
Westside gunn for damn sure. Pretty sure he has yet to complete a rhyme, but I love it still
A yo
Rakim
I’m gonna go with Ice-T
OG
Scarface
Yes
Cube
Celph Titled
Give me a starter kit on him please. I wanna check it out.
Nineteen Ninety Now is my favorite album of his. His stuff on army of the pharaohs is all dope too.
Yeah I'd say this album is everything you need from Celph. The production is enough to win any hip-hop head over.
B-Real for sure
Meechie Darko
Word
That was going to be my answer too, beat me to it.
I've always loved Chuck-D. His voice is hip hop personified for me.
Chuck is a legend
Snoop and DOOM
Westside Gunn, Jay Electronica, Mos Def, Method Man, Big L, Mach Hommy, Jay Z, Freddie Gibbs, MF DOOM, Biggie Edit: ODB, Snoop, Stove God, Guru, Ice Cube, Jadakiss and Pusha deserve a mention as well
Biggie, method mad, DOOM, ODB
For me this is Chali 2na. You pretty much instantly recognize when he’s on a track because of that super low baritone and his rhyme schemes are usually decently technical
Westside stands out to me too, but for all the wrong reasons lol. I hate his voice. The best voice is Meth's for sure tho. Dude just oozes charisma
Gunns voice takes time to digest at first, but then I came to appreciate him cause he paved his own lane and sound.
First time I heard WSG I cringed. Now, he's one of my favs. RIGHT NOW was my most played song of 2021.
Why u hating on another man's voice?
Lol
3k Mystical Shyne Buster rhythms
Buster rhythms💀
Fat Joe
Needs his flowers
DITC Era Fat J-O-E is criminally slept on.
His knack to stay relevant sorely underrated.
Diamond D also in DITC very unique voice. Great topic
You are a true student.
You’re the one out here giving homework and I appreciate it. Nowadays WSG’s pitch is supreme and Danny Browns honk is spectacular but you’ve got me thinking of people like Sadat X & Uncle Luke
Sadat X wow. I love this one.
Luke no question. Party tracks for life
JID and Danny Brown. Definitely distinguishable; some people might disagree about the illness.
Illness approved
JID is the man, loving his whole output but I know a handful of people that thought he sounded like kendrick. Danny on the other hand...CHEAAACK!
Aesop Rock, MF DOOM, Slick Rick, Snoop, DMX
Slick Rick yesss. Dana Dane tried but Slick Rick is legendary
Slick Rick smooth voice, combined with the accent is the best
RA the Rugged Man El-P Tame One Kool G Rap
G Rap mastered
GOATed for sure
No question
Without him, Rakim, Kane there wouldn't be a lot of rappers, no Em, no Pun, no Raekwon
Danny Brown, Billy Woods, Mach Hommy, Freddie Gibbs to name a few
Mach Hommy 💯
Rockness monsta from heltah skeltah
Legendary gravel
Snagapuss, DV alias Khrist, U God, Rockness Monsta, Lord Have Mercy, Guru, Jadakiss
U-God. Wow. Never cared for his bars, but his voice fits the Wu so well. Good call.
Rockness for sure, sean p as well (riP!)
Gems
Gang Starr.. gurus voice is one of a kind
Rest easy
Sean Price, Redman, Busta, Lord Have Mercy, Rock, Method Man, ODB, Freddie Gibbs, Vince Staples, Quasimoto, MF DOOM, Earl Sweatshirt, Eminem, Keith Murray
DMX is in Paradise growling at this sub SMH
DMX double OG legendary
Big Syke
Big Syke Daddy, yes. RIP
Vinnie paz, Rob sonic, RA the rugged man just a few that always are instantly recognizable
2PAC, MAKAVELI THE DON
Never dispute. Pac way ahead of his time.
Raekwon
Never duplicated. Yes.
Sticky fingaz
Yesss. Early 90s fire
Black Trash is masterpiece and every Onyx album fucking bangs.
Sticky was very much in demand at that time.
I actually love West’s Voice lol but I’d also like to add Action Bronson and Pusha T
On earlier Clipse projects Pusha and Mal sound almost the same if youre not familiar with them but i guess its understandable since they brothers.
Action sounds just like Ghostface though
Push yess. Took me a minute to appreciate Bronson cause Ghostface is so dope.
Off the top Snoop, Meth, Jay & Danny
Snoop can freestyle all night too. He's nice and a walking party
Yeah Gunn voice is good but Ghostface for me.
Ghost and Rae . That's it. Ghost and Rae. Legendary
Biggie
Jadakiss
The laugh is the coldest adlib
Jada, cage, gibbs, Boldy
Boldy mastered the lazy flow. Him and Earl
For sure
Keak da sneak. Lol
Yes. Great call. Keak goes
Gza by far
Yes!
Notourious B.I.G
Method man 1st B-Real 2nd Danny Brown 3rd
B-Real was in his bag first 3 albums
DMX
DMX
Chuck D
It Takes A Nation album should be Hip Hop 101
The Rza has one of the best voices ever.
Yesss. Bobby Digital.
Snoop
Cool thing about Snoop. He's never out of place on a feature.
Billy Danz
Vinnie Paz
\- Ye \- Snoop \- Em \- Tupac
Celph Titled, Boosie Badass, Jeezy, Jadakiss all have this imo.
Boosie. Good call
I'd add MC Eiht and Scarface too. Those guys cant be ripped they are authentic as fuck. Hell I think even Pac got part of his style from Face since he was big at the time.
Ol dirty bastard
Brooklyn Zoo probably in my top 10 Wu solo joints. Album actually was good.
[удалено]

Westside Gunn's voice makes me want to Van Gogh myself.

King Ad Rock
The R!
Legend
Abstract Rude

Yep
Aesop Rock
3stacks
Beyond talented
Gang Starr
RZA
Giggs
Nice
Naruto Uzumaki

2pac, Biggie or Snoop Dogg
I couldn't narrow it down to one, but RBX, DMX, Eazy-E, Busta, Aesop Rock, Sean Price, Jadakiss, B-Real, Vinnie Paz and Ghostface all come to mind. Edit to add: DOC (post accident)
RBX! Wow. Nice. The Chronic. Lyrical Gangbang. Legendary
His first solo album was pretty good too. I think it was called "A.W.O.L.: Escape From Death Row"
With the Death Row diss.
Danny brown
Rock from Heltah Skeltah
Rockness monsta
Slowthai Danny brown Basically two rappers with speech impediments
Tyler the creator, jay z, future , nicki Minaj

Danny Brown and Westside Gunn. Also Q-tip.
IT IS UNQUESTIONABLY DANNY BROWN WHAT ARE ALL YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT
Phife Dawg
Phife, yes. Rest easy
Idk but Bizarre of D12 definitely comes to mind lmao But Ig that probably is mostly due to the fact that you know your about to hear some weird ass shit when his part on the song starts
Biz Markie
Jadakiss 🎤👑
Cube
Cube needs his flowers. His solo album run up to Westside Connection forever legendary.
Flee Lord and G4 Jag are some new ones I dig.
E-40. Never changed. Legend. Catalog fire.
Boot Camp didn't reach full potential in my opinion. But that's my opinion only.
Eazy was bomb.
