The veteran battle rapper recently shared the various Top 5 hip hop lists making a special category for Marshall.
Besides quite traditional rankings like the Top 5 groups and duos, Hollow Da Don built his Top 5 solo hip hop artists around their writing ability and the impact their lyrics have. Named the Top 5 Pens in Hip Hop, the list goes like this:
1. Eminem
2. Nas
3. Rakim
4. Big Pun
5. Canibus
The battle rapper is ready to defend his position and spelt out criteria he had in mind when building this list:
This #top5 deadliest pens. Who would you be lyrically impressed by wordplay, bars, and just difficulty level. Black Thought & Biggie could also go in here. But give me a better #Top5
Nothing is surprising in this assessment, as Hollow Da Don has always been respectful to Eminem and seen nothing but respect back.
