Just wanted to get an general feeling from all of the hip hop lovers on FF. Feel free to list (and add any additional info if you want) like 8-12 of your favorite emcees, and like 4-8 of your favorite producers. This is not intended to be a comparison of who is better then who, just a collection of who you like the most. If a particular artist/producer ventures into a genre not considered hip hop, that's fine, but hip hop should be their general focus.
Favorite emcees:
Talib Kweli
Eminem
Nas
2pac
Notorious BIG
Black Thought (The Roots)
Chali 2na (Jurassic 5)
Mos Def
Elzhi
Common
Honorable Mention:
Guru
Q-Tip (Tribe Called Quest)
Rza (Wu Tang Clan)
Slug (Atmosphere)
Favorite producers:
Nujabes
9th Wonder
Jake One
Hi Tek
Black Milk

^^Good mention of J Dilla you two, he totally slipped my mind. RIP to that great beat maker.
Speaking of a RIP, Nujabes' music is so dope. His instrumentals will be classics until the end of time.

Hi Tek
No I.D.
DJ Premier |
The more that I think about it, the more I would put Black Milk on this list. i absolutely love some of his producing. I actually like his work more than No I.D. and DJ Premier TBH.
I also bumped Elzhi into my favorites category. He is a true hip hop lyricist. Love the work he and Black Milk put out together.

Shame on me for not even mentioning J Dilla.
I like Jay Dee just as much as Premo.
I bought a J Dilla changed my life shirt awhile ago.
