Thought has been my favorite emcee since he ripped UNIverse (with Com). Thought's delivery cannot be tested, while lyrically he has the ability to stretch a punchline for more than one bar (I'm like a faucet/monopolpy's the object/there ain't no way to cut this tap/ you got to get wet/your head is throbbin and I ain't said shit yet.)Com is tied for a close second with Kweli, and I love these emcees for many different reasons. All three of these emcees have progressed with each release, but Thought keeps solidifying his place everytime I hear him rhyme.Com is not the battle emcee that Thought is, and he definitley has more flav (ie. Real Nigga Quotes and Cold Blooded) but Thought drops a quotable everytime he picks up the mic.
