Underrated: Obie Trice and Royce da 5′9″

WWW at BallerStatus posts his list of underrated emcees in a new post and this is what he has to say about two Detroit artists.

Royce Da 5′9 -– Royce… one of my favorite underrated MCs. One of my favorite MCs, period. Nas digs dude’s skills too. I could tell you what makes him underrated, but ask your little brother or sister if they heard of Royce Da 5′9. Here, watch this video. I’m going to get something to eat. (*link to Royce’s “Hip Hop” video)

Obie Trice -– I’m going to tell you hip-hop fans something real right now. Let me screw y’all into some shit. This dude Obie can spit like there’s no fucking tomorrow. Got Some Teeth earned some laughs, but this dude is one real MC. Not a rapper an MC. Obie is sick. The guy is clever and highly lyrical. Oh yes, BallerStatus been knowing dude is nice. “Baby I’m extra large (huge) in magnitude / And Magnums to lubrication that I use / To chose which hole on a hoe I abuse (yes) / Have ‘em confused, can’t tell who is who.” Why Second Round’s On Me didn’t do more numbers is the root of problems that hip-hop has…

Which Detroit rappers would you add to your list?
