BET held its first show with Hip-Hop DJ's and producers voting on who are the best in the game.
First and foremost, I feel like this list was rigged from the beginning with the rules. The rules were that the only people allowed to be on this list had to have released their solo album no earlier than 1999. I personally believe this was a vendetta to keep Jay-Z off the list. But it goes without saying that he tops all of these rappers, who in some way, shape or form, have been influenced by him.
The voting criteria that each mc was judged on, which I believe was not abided by, was, flow, lyricism, subject matter, digital swagger, cultural impact, and cream(cash flow).
The bottom half of the list doesn't matter, to me, so much, but the top three is what I feel was greatly misguided. Kanye should have been number one, Em at two, and Wayne at three. But hey what do I know, it wasn't my list nor was I invited to vote.
The list is as follows:
10. Rick Ross
9. Jadakiss
8. Young Jeezy
7. Drake
6. Ludacris
5. T.I.
4. 50 Cent
3. Kanye West
2. Lil Wayne
1. Eminem
