…. can make club bangers and still get respect from the backpacker (I **** that word, but you know what I mean) types?
I guess what I mean is what rappers have the biggest crossover appeal?

Thats a hard one. For instance, both mainstream and UG listen to Common but he doesn’t put out club bangers. Im gonna say, although its been awhile, Outkast had crossover appeal. Lil Wayne HAD respect with me at one time so does that count?
Jay-Z, Outkast
There are probably a few more.
Yeah I loath that term as well (along with rapper) but Busta can, and what about Q-tip or Mos or Talib? I’m sure the list could go on for a while
Jay-Z, Common (but he’d have to drop an ounce of knowledge in the club joint).
Nas has always held crossover appeal. Also, DMX, although he has kinda dropped out of the game.
