Fans debate the top five rappers who fell off the map
‘Top five rappers who fell off the map’ was a contentious discussion with very little consensus among the fans on Twitter.
However, we have managed to put together a list based on fans’ opinions on the platform. But, before we dive in, it’s best to understand what the slang ‘fell off’ means.
Most internet users use the phrase to describe an artist whose music or work has dropped in quantity or quality compared to the high standard that they had previously set.
Here’s what music fans are saying on Twitter…
Eminem
Many users believe that the Rap God has now fallen from grace.
To this day, many consider Eminem as ‘the greatest rapper of all time,’ but it has been a while since he has dropped a track that’s as good as the likes of Not Afraid or My Name Is Slim Shady.
Nas
“There is not a single rapper who fell off harder than Nas in the history of hip-hop,” a Twitter user argued.
The rapper, 48, has been in the industry since the 90s. His latest album was 2021’s Magic, which opened to great reviews by fans and critics alike.
However, some hip hop fans are adamant that Nas has lost his magic over the years.
Chance the Rapper
Most Twitter users involved in the discussion seemed to agree that Chance the Rapper has fallen off the map.
The 28-year-old has done a lot of music collabs lately, including Holy with Justin Bieber and Best Life with Cardi B.
Sadly, that hasn’t helped him win over the listeners.
Roddy Ricch
Most Twitter users seemed to believe that Roddy Ricch is on the cusp of falling off but can still make a comeback with a hit track.
Some of the rapper’s latest songs – Late At Night, The Box and Man-made among others – did not receive as much love from fans as his early music.
Desiigner
Another fan argued that Desiigner has fallen off.
The 24-year-old New York rapper released his debut single Panda in 2015 but his journey to fame has been a lot slower than most musicians of his age.
