Top 10 hip hop artists

heathcliff · (#1 (**permalink**))

I was watching MTV and they had this thing where artists list their top ten hip hop artists - the one i saw was by Joe Budden. His no. 1 was Tupac and Biggie was controversially no. 4.

Who would be on your list?

I have to think about mine, will post later.

4. nas
5. jay z
6. scarface
7. foxxy brown

wadup heathcliff, I cant believe you put eminem at #1. anyway who i'm i to judge ones perspetive? rnb is NOT hip hop but some rnb groups do hip hop ie.. P.M Dawn, Joe Public, TLC etc...they all had an emcee in their group

hiero, i think eminem is isht....
if TLC is part of hip hop then i might take out Foxxy and replace it with them. kwanza i've just remembered i forgot to rate L.L...
by the way, how come you havent rated 50?

1. Biggie
2. Gza
3. Black Thought(gets no credit)
4. Mos Def
5. Talib Kweli
6. Jay-z
7. Nas
8. Rass Kass
9. J-Live
10.Common

If only some emcees were given freedom...record companies are a bunch thieves

Dude, how on earth did Ja Rule make it above DMX, Eve, Eminem, Lost Boyz, Ludacris and Snoop?

But then again -- one man's meat...
