Just for argument sake . . .
Two of the most under rated MCs of all time in my opinion are Chuck D and Treach (Naughty by Nature). The consistency of the subject material that was dropped by Chuck D was enough to put him on any list. His powerful voice was an amazingly strong influnce on almost anyone in the game today. Don't get it twisted, there are many cats who are crazy creative, however the syncopation that was delievered by Treach was truly mind boggeling. I realize that he nor naughty have consistently put out album after album. But as far as MCs goes, he's sick.
