Jadakiss Names His Top 5 Rappers Dead Or Alive

Jadakiss listed the four best rappers that he believes would rank with him in the top five of all time during a recent interview with Erika Fernandez. The iconic New York rapper once famously proclaimed himself to be "top five dead or alive."




"The other four would have to be Biggie, DMX, Nas, JAY-Z," Jadakiss answered during the interview. Fans in the comments section of a post of the clip by The Hip-Hop Wolf had mixed responses to the list. "So New York don't have no down south rapper in top 5 just asking??" one user wrote. Another argued, "Any top 5 with PAC not at 1 is invalid. Idc if it is his opinion."

It's not the first time that Jadakiss has listed his top five rappers. When asked for the best voices in hip hop on UPROXX's show, Fresh Pair, in 2022, he named Guru, Method Man, The Notorious B.I.G., Tone-Loc, and Nas.




"I think Guru, rest in peace. [Method Man], you know when the [Wu-Tang Clan] came Meth's voice was deep and raspy and just he has an ill voice," Jada said at the time. "Big, with the nasal. Sounds like he's having a hard time breathing but that's making his cadence extra crazy. Tone-Loc, Tone-Loc's voice was ill. Nas, with the nasal. That's voices! So don't get mad at me."
