When we discuss storytelling skills in hip-hop we automatically name drop guys like Slick Rick some cats may even say Scarface. Currently who would you say has impeccable or least what you would consider decent storytelling skills?

killer mike. that RAP music established him as such imo
Slick Rick's verse in last Mos Def album proved that he ain't done yet

and also DOOM.
*Waits for biskit to say Qwel
Ghost is still the best. his Gihad verse was voted verse of the year by Hip Hop DX, and that was one of his best storytelling joints. Rae is up there still
Roc Marciano & Curren$y
GRANDMASSIVE AKA HIGH PRIEST

I agree on all the above, though I need to hear more of Currensy's work in order to determine whether he belongs in the ranks of greats like Ghost
I think eLZhi is slept on as a storyteller.
This style of storytelling is clever, Nino has been around awhile but he's still up and coming.
Masta Ace has been around awhile too and still does his thing as a storyteller. He's been good at it since his first album.
Hell Razah is another
Lil B.
canibus isn't the best storyteller, he's only made two storytelling tracks but this track is so underrated it's ridiculous
