Rappers that are inspiring

Nas 2pac Lupe fiasco Kevin Gates lil baby

 

[Evaccaneer Doom]

I really wish I could say Ye in good faith, because his story is inspiring. Then he had to say all that crazy shit in 2022

Montana of 300. He dropped an impressive and varied discography onto the world and is already retired aside from some features here and there. Wish I could say more, but most fall off at one point or another. That or hurt their reputation doing too much on interviews or the like. I like the humble beginnings of some of the soundcloud artists, but most I like heavily glorify horrible lifestyles.

Nobody did it better than Coolio when it came to inspiring songs

And there were other good artists like:

Kid 'N Play

Ice-T

Das EFX

And finally, Wreckx-n-Effect. I know California Love is a beloved song from Tupac/Dre. But these guys did the iconic beat first

Edgy, political, controversial... but I still love Immortal Technique
