Houston rapper Slim Thug recently shared his top five favorite rappers of all-time, ranging from the late Tupac Shakur to Lil Wayne. However, despite his respect for Notorious B.I.G., he felt that the late rapper had not released a sufficient amount of music to be considered one of the greats.

“Tupac, his music is so meaningful; you know what I’m saying. With him, it wasn’t just about music. He had so much feeling in everything he did. That’s like, my favorite rapper of all time; that’s Tupac! Jay-Z, him being alive, I got so much respect for him as an artist, you know what I’m saying. For him to be so consistent, and for him to still be the top rapper in this generation–dude is like 40 years old and he’s broke all kind of boundaries…See, I like Biggie. I think he jam or whatever. But, I don’t think he put out enough music to be [considered] the best ever. He only put out two albums, due to him losing his life. And I’m from the South; I’ll put cats like, Scarface, on the list.”

Among Slim Thug’s Top 5, no doubt one of TX best, Hip-Hop duo UGK.

“UGK. They’re a group; but, there among the top artists to me. I grew up on they s***. I know a mother***er from New York will say something totally different, like Wu-Tang…Finally, Lil Wayne. He does more music and puts more out there than Jay-Z. He puts more out there than anybody! Nobody is putting out as much music as Lil Wayne, nobody.”
