Depends what era you are talking about. KRS One, Big Daddy Kane, and RUN DMC are a few of the most famous rap entreprenuers, but there are plenty of people who listen to rap who have no clue who Big Daddy Kane is. If you are talking about todays generation Tupac Shakur, Notorious B.I.G, Eazy E, Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, and Snoop Dogg would be some of the most famous rappers.

How does hip hop and crime relate?

This isn't the PRECISE answer, but I think it's one answer that can be used. Most Hip Hop artists talk about violence and drugs, alcohol and things like that, which can encourage viewers/listeners to do these things. For Instance; a famous hip hop artist can rap about taking weed and glocks etc, and their fans might copy the artist by doing what he/she raps about. Just like many people do with other music artists.

Do some hip hop artist have certain benefits because of their accomplishments?

The best way to answer your question is yes and no. Benefits come from the fact that generally hip hop artists are wealthy. Also, hip hop artists are famous and because of this they are accepted into any club or exclusive event they want to go. On the flip side hip hop artists are oftentimes negatively manipulated by their labels. Also being famous has its downsides. Living a life watched by paparazzi is not easy; one mistake can ruin a whole career. Also hip hop artists are stereotyped into a group of drug dealing, womanizing people. Oftentimes, as displayed by rappers like K'naan and Lupe Fiasco this type of negative lyricism is not always true.
