But Rakim does get recognition. TOO MUCH thats the whole point. ask any moderatly mainstream to extremely mainstream eastcoast artist their top 5 and I garuntee you Rakim will be in there. I've seen this happen on countless occasions. Thats the epitomy of over rated. when people claim someones the greatest because they feel it's "The right thing to say" it's called peer preasure and that stems from the recognition Rakim gets from these artists peers.
