Complex' Top 50 New York Rappers List Is TRASH!

Top 50 NY Rappers from Complex

Complex dropped their list of the Top 50 New York Rappers of All Time… and hip-hop fans have been arguing ever since.

From legends like Jay-Z, Nas, Biggie, Rakim, and LL Cool J taking the top spots, to controversial rankings involving Jadakiss, Big L, Lloyd Banks, Ice Spice, and more, this list sparked one of the biggest rap debates online.

In this video, we break down Complex’s entire top 50 list, react to the biggest surprises, discuss the most shocking omissions, and debate which New York rappers were ranked way too high — or way too low.

Did Complex get the number one spot right?
Was Big L disrespected?
Should Lloyd Banks, AZ, or Canibus have made the list?
And which rapper has the most overrated placement?

Whether you’re a fan of golden age hip-hop, 90s rap, mixtape era legends, or the new generation of NYC artists, this video is packed with hip-hop history, opinions, and debate.

Drop your own top 10 New York rappers in the comments and let us know which placements you agree — or completely disagree — with.
