The gulliest rappers of all time

As much time as we spend going back and forth over who's gully and who isn't, I thought it was high time somebody went and put together a definitive list of the gulliest rappers in all of hip-hop. I actually spent a decent amount of time thinking about this, so I'm pretty confident with this short list just based on my own frame of reference. But then there's so much rap these days that I don't listen to that I'm sure I'm leaving out lots of perfectly dangerous jigs from places like New Orleans and Kansas City and so on and so forth. Feel free to attempt to argue your own selections in the comments section if that's your thing.

And now, without further ado:

5. Freddie Foxxx

Honestly, I have no idea whether or not Freddie Foxxx actually walks around carrying around two loaded .45s not unlike Chow Yun-Fat in The Killer, and actually, the more I think about, the less likely that seems, but I'm still pretty sure he could kick the living shit out of anybody this side of Chuck Zito, which is more than enough to warrant him a place on this list.

4. Black Rob

Black Rob, with his ailing kidneys and his generally gaunt physique, probably couldn't beat the shit out of most women, but he could damn sure break into their homes and steal their TVs - provided they weren't too heavy, of course. This jig has basically spent the last 5 years or so since his one and only hit, "Whoa," getting in and, thanks to his boy P. Diddy, out of trouble with the law for various crimes such as packing gats, toting and taking all kinds of drugs, and stealing shit.

3. Big Pun

Big Pun though, if he was alive of course, could not only beat the shit out of most women, but would probably take great pleasure in it. Yep, according to a recent article in Vibe magazine (yeah, I know), Big Pun used to do the kind of shit to his wife that would make even the great Ike Turner go, "Whoa man, not so rough on the wife!" In fact, to this day Big Pun's wife can't actually see straight, but at least she can afford to buy the kind of silly shit that most women like.

2. Keith Murray

Wow, I can't believe I just typed that. My bad, ladies. I'm not really as bad as I seem over the Internet; I'm just looking for a nice young lady to settle down with and have sex with daily.

Anyhoo, Keith Murray's rap sheet speaks for itself. Dude spent hard time in the clink for beating somebody over the head with a bar stool. Prodigy from Mobb Deep made the mistake of accusing him of smoking weed and rapping about space shit that doesn't make sense (which is actually true) and ended up finding out the hard way why you just don't go there with Keith Murray. Also, after Def Jam failed to properly promote his last LP, he went up to their building and threatened to start throwing tall Israelis out of the motherfucking window, which of course got him promptly dropped like a bad habit.

1. Chi Ali

There's some pretty gully jigs on this list, but how many of them could really say that they shot their own cousin over some borrowed cassette tapes? Or was it $300? Either way, that was some pretty cold shit. Did he ever end up getting caught? Cause if so, somebody needs to give him a deal and make him the next Shyne.

ALSO: Check out Robbie's post about one of the most ign'ant rap groups of all time, the Convicts. He was going to post it here, but I'm back now, so he went ahead and posted it on his own site.
