re: Future is the best rapper out right now

Not even by a longshot

I'd say depending on style, Kendrick might have something to say, Brother Ali is up there for me.....its really just a debate over style

If you like a more dark, sinister vibe or machine gun rapping you could make a seriously strong case for Tech N9ne (and he's justified by doing a song with just about every rapper from Eminem to Kendrick to Hopsin to Busta Rhymes & Twista and murdered every song)

If you are looking for a strong case lyrically, Black Thought of The Roots makes a serious case.

All these people are head, shoulders, knees and toes above what poor Future will ever accomplish in his career.

ETA: Another artist I personally have up there and I know a few others on here do, is the quirky lyrical genius MF Doom, again depending on taste.
