The two most important rappers ever. I went with Rakim, he was the first one who rhymed more than one syllable at the end of a line. And he is arguably the most concise rapper ever, he rarely wastes a word in a genre where artists routinely waste verses.

Yep, a brutal first-round matchup. Going solely on the basis of their MC skills I'll go with Rakim

I voted Rakim, of course. He was going to be my first nominee, but someone got to it before I could.

Epic old-school face-off.

Rakim is not overrated. He's the best of the old-school MCs.
