The 50 Greatest White Rappers of All Time

Over the course of 27 years of being an avid hip hop fan, I decided to compile a list of the 50 Baddest White Boys Holding the Microphone. I know sometimes white rappers get a bad rap! This article and the list are my personal opinion, but I think it’s a good place on the list. This is in no particular order and I couldn’t put EVERYONE here so I used my best judgment from mainstream music to underground.
