Slick Rick The Ruler is probably the flashiest hip-hop artist of all-time, when it comes to jewelry and diamonds there isn't a rapper alive who can outlast the number of precious jewels Slick Rick has in his arsenal. But, the jewels aren't the reason why he's considered one of the greatest to ever touch a microphone. Slick Rick's unique delivery and seemingly lackadaisical flow have made his voice one of the most recognizable tones in the genre's history.
Unfortunately, in 1990, Slick Rick spent a total of seven years behind bars after shooting his ex-bodyguard who extorting money from the rapper and even threatened to kill him and his mother. But that still hasn't stopped his legacy with hits like 'La Di Da Di', "A Children's Story', and 'Hey Young World' which he still performs to this very day.
