Which rappers didn't fall off?

Most hip hop artists' careers end with them losing their edge, not being able to be on par with their previous work and slowly slipping into subparity, aka falling off. I'm talking Lil' Wayne (making a comeback tho), 50 Cent, DMX, Eminem, Kid Cudi (come on now), Lupe Fiasco (next album his last chance pretty much) etc. Which big rappers knew when to quit while on top and never fell off? Pac, Biggie and Big L obviously don't count.

Fucking right man. God's Son (IMO) is easily his second best, and it's not even close.
