I'm such a lyrics fiend and I think Ab-Soul has had the sharpest bars out of the whole crew since day one. Jay Rock's voice is undeniable. Schoolboy Q is a pleasant work in progress who takes risks and I like that in a rapper.

Kendrick Lamar is a complete songwriter and he's managed to impress strictly on presence alone. He has that "it" factor.
