Lil B is one of hip-hop's most contentious figures. Originally a member of the Berkeley-based group The Pack, his solo career is characterised by his startlingly prolific nature—he once released a mixtape featuring an incredible 855 songs. Known for his patented based freestyles, his rhymes take stream of consciousness lyrics to a new level, while he's also fond of rapping over eclectic and wildly off-kilter beats. Whether you love or hate his music, no one can deny that Lil B is a real deal Internet icon of the aughts.
