2Pac, Eminem (don't front people...the man has put out some DEEP shit - ie: "If I Had", "Rock Bottom", "Lose Yourself", "Sing For The Moment"), Cage, B.o.B. aka Bobby Ray, DMX (most emotional and honest rapper ever, IMO), Joe Budden (ie: "Calm Down", "Walk With Me", "10 Minutes"), Nas, Lupe Fiasco (ie: "The Cool", "The Coolest"), Immortal Technique
