Biggie, Tupac, Shady, Jay, Nas, Jadakiss, Styles, all of Wu-Tang, Snoop, Game, Redman, Talib Kweli, Common, AZ, Big L, Big Pun, Bone Thugs, Busta, De La Soul, KRS, Big Daddy Kane, Rakim, DMX, Ice Cube, Scarface, older Outkast, Tribe Called Quest...just curious? Or have you never even heard of some of them?

Do they all suck because they don't/didn't live the lives they portray? LOL!! I definitely will say Jeezy cracks the top 100 MC's of all time...I'll give him that lol. Dammit...I went negative again...I'm tryna get us to 'discuss' rather than 'argue'...I swear I'm trying but it's hard with people that respect the person rather than the music..
Most of the rappers you listed are good and most on the list are better than Jeezy IMO, but let's be fair to Jeezy, he's not a bad rapper. He has a decent flow and talks about the hood while still allowing his words to mostly make sense (which is tough for some Southern rappers ). At least he doesn't completely suck like Dem Franchise Boys or D4L.
