Posdnous from De La Soul. I think the whole group is incredible but Pos is hands down my favorite of all time.

back in the day, i never had a "favorite" mc.
i had a handful of ones i thought were dope...and better than most...
but to me, the over-all dopeness was production, with a touch of dj'ing.
so my favorite "hip-hop" figure is primo, ever.
mc's were typically a dime a dozen...
that was until of course i met:
roc-one - and that's some real shit. he knows this.
and heard:
aesop rock - consistantly amazes me everytime.

My favorite MC of all times, all things considered, has to be Chuck D. I wanna say Ghostface Killah, because he's sooooo nasty with his abstract connections, incredible imagery and blazing style and I wanna say Jay Z or Biggie because they are such incredible wordsmiths and have such tight flows and I wanna say Big Pun because he is such a direct influence on my style (I think) but I gotta stick with Chuck because his voice is so powerful and his message is so urgent and timeless. FIGHT THE POWER!

Common used to be my favorite emcee. . . just cause he would talk about things, use personification, and he used to be ultra wordy

and Pharoahe Monch because of how crazy he would come off on a record. . . he was always off/ontime and had some of the most creative verses I had ever heard

and Gift of Gab because he is just incredible

and. . . and. . . and. . . sorry I have failed miserably. . . can't name one. . . probably why I make music myself

I'm downloading the album right now on I-Tunes. Can't wait to blast it all the way to Waterbury on my way up to recording Devil's Math.

I think you and Nemesis are the only two emcees who have ever used the word "bereft" in a verse. And "synechdoche", that's all you, kid.

This is super-interesting. I really dig how you breakdown the thought process behind "bob ross" since the lyrics are so out there. Great job Sketch! I love the links and the videos.
