Master P is a pioneer of the rap game-period. </b>
<p><b> </b></p><b>
His business acumen and his No Limit movement will forever ring in the annals of Hip-Hop History. But, when it comes down to his Top 5 Dead or Alive rappers, Master P is pretty precise even if he has to add a couple rappers past five to the end of his list. </b>
<p><b> </b></p><b>
Finally, we managed to ask P, known know as Percy Miller, where he places himself on the list. His answer will likely surprise you! </b>

<b>AllHipHop.com:</b> Who makes your Top 5 emcees of all time? <p></p>
<p><b>Master P: <br>
<br>
Tupac: </b>He was the greatest of all time. He was the one that came from the streets that was able to reach a whole different culture.

<b>Run-D.M.C.: </b>For what they did. <p></p>

<b>Eminem:</b> To be able to break into an African-American game, I would have to take my hat off to him for that. <p></p>

<b>Biggie: </b>For what he brought to the game. This was more of an image-driven business and his ability to conquer a fan base was incredible. <p></p>

<b>Master P: </b>Wait, I also left out Rakim and Scarface. That's my <i>Top 7. </i><p></p>
<p> </p>
<b>THE SIDEBAR </b><p></p>
<p> </p><b>
AllHipHop.com:</b> Where do you think you fall on that list? <p></p>
<p> </p>
<b>Master P:</b> I think I've changed the game. I taught the game how to hustle so I think I probably would make the Top 10 or 20 for my hustling skills. I don't really try to be the best rapper in the game but I use my talent to be able to dominate a market like nobody else did. I also brought the independence to the game. That alone puts me on the list.
