Yeah I don't know who a few of these guys are either. Some :bork:s were included to pad it out a bit, as long as they were famous enough to warrant having a Wikipedia page.

Speaker Knockerz.

Dude had found his own voice with Erica Kane, and he was a great songwriter/producer who could make the catchiest shit ever when he was aping Atlanta or Chicago on Lonely and Freak Hoe respectively.

Shout out to Big Bank Hank though - Sugar Hill Groove is a very underrated Disco band-rap era track.

Had to look up the death date on Doe B and was reminded that he died on december 28 of 2013. Would've been my pick. Out of this bunch, no idea, I guess Big Bank Hank.

Big Bank Hank - kick started the whole 'Big' movement and made it ok for fat dudes to rap. Outlived Pun, L and Smalls to boot so he's done good.
