Dr. Dre
“Even when I was close to defeat I rose to my feet”- Dr. Dre
Dr. Dre is in fact, not a legendary rapper. Rather, we may laud him as one of the all-time great producers. Yes, The Chronic was a masterpiece, and yes, he was a pioneer of the G- Funk rap genre, but these were his only contributions to hip-hop as a rapper, and due to this he might be only considered a mediocre rapper.
As a producer and mentor, on the other hand, he has helped some of hip hop’s most talented rappers of all time achieve mainstream success, including Eminem, Snoop Dogg, 2Pac, 50Cent, The D.O.C, Kendrick Lamar, and many more. He began his career as a producer while with NWA, and for their first two albums, he was exclusively acknowledged as a producer, not as a rapper.

Lil Baby
“I’m my only competition. I can’t lose.” – Lil Baby
Lil Baby got famous by releasing his mixtape Perfect Timing. His debut album, Harder Than Ever, was released in 2018. His album went Platinum and had a Drake feature too.
Critics believe his voice is not natural enough, nor is it greatly improved by autotune like Travis Scott’s, and his flow is always the same while his lyrics are unintelligible.
If you wanted to hear something good and melodic, you wouldn’t choose him, and if you wanted good lyrical, you wouldn’t choose him either, so I believe he would not be known for long unless he finds a better sound or switches up his style.
