Ludacris Says He's The Best Rapper, Lands Own Fragrance
by on August 10th, 2009
Rapper/actor Ludacris has joined the already-extensive list of MC's claiming the number 1 in Hip Hop.
In a recent interview with the Chicago Tribune, Luda says that he doesn't expect to be rapping for long because he feels he already is the best rapper out.
"Rap is real competitive just the same way boxing is," he said in the interview.
"We always talk about taking other rappers out. That being said, I feel like I'm the best rapper. I wanted to get the best boxer in the game [for my last album.] That's why it's called "Undisputed.''
Luda is currently working on his seventh studio album, Ludaversal, due out sometime this year.
Ludaversal is billed as a sequel to last years Theater Of The Mind.
Luda will also be appearing in "Gamer," an upcoming science fiction action thriller film.
The flick follows Gerard Butler as an unwilling participant in an online game in which participants can control human beings as players.
You can check out the trailer below:
In related news, Luda will continue to expand his business portfolio by partnering up with TAG body spray for his own signature fragrance.
"They approached us saying that there was an opportunity where I could design a can and endorse a fragrance... It's something that is uncharted territory for me so I was definitely interested."



























i wouldnt say hes the best rapper, thats going a little too far..there really isnt a best rapper because different rappers are talented at different things (singing, flow, lyrics, delivery etc.) so theres no way to judge who is the BEST
its all about who YOU like the most, whoever u enjoy listening to the most is the best rapper to u
can’t none of y’all bust, you’re just sacs full of semen
And I got the women screamin (AHHH!)
They could catch my balls on Any Given Sunday like my name’s Willy Beaman
Or LL Cool – so if your boyfriend
thinks you loyal to his ass then he’s a motherfuckin fool
Luda is Top 6 RIGHT NOW in the game among Active MC’s, in no particular order…
Nas
Jay-Z
Ludacris
Mos Def
JadaKiss
Raekwon
how the fuck yu gonna say tht joe bunden’s shit is better than jada’s shit ?
yu smokein crack or sumthin ?
yu do look like a crackhead in yur picture
he has one of my favorite flows and he can also freestyle like a mufucka as also stated by others before me
no luda verse has as much wordplay as that shit right there. i love luda but three stacks a lil more clever and has just as good of flow
…Imagine if had Luda stayed in Illinois and moved to Chi-Town. Luda would be bigger than ever in the spotlight with Kanye, Common, and the rest of G.O.O.D. Music.
Oh and I thought Theater of The Mind was his last album, good to hear he’s not done with rap.
Everybody come equipped with bangas/Throwing up our middle fangas/And you know I don’t slip so I gotta keep 10 in the clip and 1 the chambers/Better be walking with angels/And never take candy from strangers/Luda’s dressed in stripes had to earn my stripes like I played with the Bengals/I’m in the zone homes going for the two point conversion/I’m so hood that Ludacris should have been on the original version
But this is the remix/With the cheap tricks/Hitting sweet licks/And I cut the braids off with the waves and the fade that will make you sea sick/See this is the way that we ball/And this is the way we roll/So put a fist in the air if you care/United we stand and divided we fall/When the south is in the house
Luda can stand up with the best
in other news… that slaughterhouse cd is fuckin amazing
make the same song over and over but eminem really kills it: every album the songs are about: mom, daughter,drug abuse, and media/ppl fucking with him..i mean it would be cool if he did talk about jewelery and shit every once in a while bc the dude spits nothing but depressing shit that im tired of and dont get me wrong hands down eminem is a beast with a mic but he’s also waaay overated which i like to believe is bc he’s basically the only white rapper in the game thats relevant and i think that most who think he’s the best just feel that way bc hes the best WHITE rapper but come on..i honestly feel like wayne is the best rapper bc of his versitility and wayne haters, i feel, only dislike him bc he claims he’s the best and they dont like that he’s also the most popular rapper which seems to back up his claim but fyi im a true wayne fan and not just one of his lollipop white boy fans, and plus if yall listen to his wordplay and the way he just have fun on the tracks and how he just know when he just killin a track i think more ppl would feel the way i feel but also underneath all that wayne also says some real shit on some of deeper tracks like basically the whole drought is over 3 the carter sessions…but seeing how this article is bout luda i have to give it to him, he is a beast, not the best, but he’s a beast and i dont bash any one who thinks he is the best bc he’s a legitimate rapper
yu are a pussy nd i rele hope yu die at yur next lil wayne concert
And He(Luda) Is One Of Them…
And Theater Of The Mind Was Far From Good….
That Shit Was Pretty Lyrical And He Marked His Territory In The Game With That One…
Undisputed Was Classic…Hands Down…Point Blank…Finito
And Besides…He’s Not Your Typical Mumbling Doped Up Rapper With An Ego The Size Of The Equator…
props
1.ALL is albums (not just a few, ALL) went PLATINUM… And Atlease 2-4 acts from DTP went Gold or Platinum(including himself)
2.Everything Luda has been on (including his albums) ALL went Platinum…the Ciara, Chingy, Bobby V, AND T.I.
He may make up some corny ish on sum traccs (but who doesnt sometimes), but he MAKES SENSE. Every song he puts out is different, and he can switch things up and actually talk about suttin intellectual and/or adventurous. Now as far as best rapper….why not let him be a nominee for the title, he has the resume’ (PLATINUM ON EVERY ALBUM), he has a well workin and talented team(WHO ALSO GOES EITHER GOLD OR PLATINUM) and most importantly….HUMBLE!!! The only person i C challengin Luda wld be T.I and or Em …..Wayne is thru, he’s slaccin in da rap department, and if u r honest with urselfs ull say the same…so he cant be the best. Same with Jay Z and Nas. Jay Z’s mindset isnt caught up to the present 2009-2010 form, if D.O.A. came out in like 2001-2004, it wldve been lovely and Nas got babymama drama he cant focus lol…O by the way….have yall notice every song wayne and luda been on,luda out classed him?
MY LIST:(Best Out Now)
1.Eminem(resume’ speaks for itself, ask Mariah lol)
2.Ludacris (toss up wit TI)
3.Fabolous(U gotta kno before u disagree)
4.Z-RO
5.Gillie Da Kid(Only reason y wayne got hot after B.G. Juve and Turk left, dont believe me, ask me how many albums he sold after his first album and before Carter 1, exactly, Gillie Resurrected dat nigga, plus his music is street credited and commercial ready)
ezmoney318 u obviously dont know hiphop so u really shouldnt be commenting
First off, Em is good, but #1? I don’t think so. Ludacris #4 or #5 maybe. Luda is truly the king of punchlines but he is not versatile. his flow stays the same. I was let down that even on a Premo beat (M.V.P.) he still sounded like southern rappin’ ass smackin’ Luda.
Fabolous? um…..no? lol and Z-Ro, maybe if that nigga stopped whispering people might know if he is lyrical or not. And Gillie? are u high? Okay yeah he was Wayne’s ghost rider, but only for the Carter 1, and the Carter 1 was hefty bag material, straight garbage.
My List (Top 5 Alive)
1. Nas (listen to “Rewind” from Stillmatic album, you will agree with me)
2. Jay-Z (“Reasonable Doubt-Black Album” Jay)
3. Andre 3000 (anything he’s done lol)
4. Lupe Fiasco (Listen to “Gotta Eat”)
5. Eminem
BTW, the movie look’s ill.
I don’t see any other genre where all (exaggerating) the artists go on and on about how great they are and why everyone should think they are the best.
eminem
nas
kanye west
fabolous
lupe fiasco
ludachris
as of now dats what i think
My Best Rappers List:
Jay – Z
Wayne
Kanye West( depending on what song im listenint to at the time kanye get moved back and forth with 2 and 3 haha)
Drake( i know he has a lot of haterss but yall gotta admit that hes the shit as of right now)
Andre 3000
Ludacris
Fabolous?
Lupe Fiasco
as you see my list probably not gonna be popular with a lot of ppl but fuck that..my shit is legit and also notice how nas wasnt on my list…its just kinda hard to put someone on my best rappers list when he hasnt made a song in forever.one that i liked
it’s just something about his overly animated-ness that sometimes i just dont like.(kinda the same with Busta)
i put in no particular order my top 5 alive as Jay,Nas, Andre, Lupe….and i cant really put another nigga cuz there are so many that i wanna say are great like Em, Luda, Redman, T.I, Kanye, Mos Def….but i cant say as a whole in their catalogs of music that they ALWAYS pick the right flow for all their songs.
on another note,..be on the look out for B.O.B, that kid has mad potential and creativity he does all the beats,plays the instruments, sings,writes, and raps. he could easily make my top 15 in a year or 2 if he keeps going strong like this.
1.Jay-Z/Kanye West after the 808s also he beat Jay on We Run This Town
3.Eminem
4.Ludacris
5.Lupe Fiasco
6.Andre 3000
7.Fab
8.T.I.
9.Drake 3 solid mixtapes
10.J.Cole listen to The Warm Up
Nas
Jay-Z
Andre 3000
Eminem
Cassidy
Jadakiss
Lupe Fiasco
Talib Kwale
Ludacris
I can’t think of a #10
but thats my list of alive.
But everyone has their own opinion, I’m jus sayin Cass, to me has been proving his claim as the best rapper alive.
(Dante3hiphop) Now as far as my list goes ur #4 and mines, well lets compare. Yeah Z-RO whispers and Lupe whispers as well, but honestly Z-RO whispers louder. Yea Lupe been on TV and so on, but ask urself, how consistent can dis nigga be? Z-RO maybe underground, but money got mo shit folk can relate to and keep it street and it aint bout who mo street, its consistency, u dont hear Lupe as much as Z-Ro, so does dat mean he lost his steam? Just a question. And ur puttin Nas and Jay Z in ya list means U dont kno how to read my statements. Jay and Nas sure Extraordinary rappers, but lets face it, NOW as in the present 2009 era, they r not da best rappers out, Jay too intouch wit 2001-2004 Jay and Roc a fella, like i said if DOA came out then den hell yea he da best rapper now, but the fact is hes not and as for Nas(ok really, i lost respect for homie cuz he went hard body on Jigga man and as soon as his money got low or whateva da case is, he work for Jay now, Im just sayin) he got too much on his mind to focus on rap so he aint on board wit da rap shit like he was really(plus babymama drama’ll fucc u up lol)
Fab and Andre i say necc and necc(i mean wit Andre he weirodo but hes got flow) and da only reason folk callin Em a clown is because he different(but wait, aint…Andre 3000 different as well, hmmm, suttin to think about)
Muzic17: dats tru, u grow with age, i truly agree, but with help and guidance, just like our parents did us. Now idk if anyone who is readin dis, but do u remember a song and video called “Get Somethin” feat Mannie Fresh dat was suppose to be on Carter 1, but anyone who bought tha album clearly saw dat song wasnt on there.(Here’s da point) Now on dat song, he sounded just like tha original Weezy (the wobbly-wobbly-drop drop it like its hot), same voice, same swagga, same everything. And it kinda makes u think, ok da song sounds completely different from da songs from the album, and PLUS, it wasnt on there, what happened. Well doesnt Wayne start soundin kinda Philly-ish or in a betta term Gillie-ish afta “Get Somethin”, just a question? And Muzic dont get me wrong, i aint hatin on Wayne, I used to be a DIE-DIE-DIE HARD fan of Weezy, but just afta Carter 1 and da mixtapes, yung boi wasnt HIMSELF….Honestly, can we all say we miss tha fun Weezy instead of the dope’d up all da time, talk like his mouth full of spit on top of autotunes dicc Weezy. And as far as Gillie goes, a bum, not da lease bit(MTV Cribs, 6 bedrooms 5 baths, 09 whips, u do da math and w/o a deal). He got Philly GANGSTAS callin him da KING OF Philly, I mean i aint ridin his dicc or whateva yall gon say afta readin dis but da lil niggas da truth.
