Classics. Some other good ones. A friend and I were talking about this, after listening to Banned From TV, imagine where NY hip hop would be if Pun hadn't died, things would be different. Capital Punishment was very good.Comment

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread
Apparently Vibe has named Eminem as the best rapper alive if anyone cares to discuss. What's the deal with him.. is he done or what?
Over 920,000 votes later, VIBE announces the winner of it's first annual Best Rapper Alive tournament
When VIBE decided to let the people decide The Best Rapper Alive, we just wanted to have a little fun. But with a final tally exceeding 920,000 votes, it’s safe to say we touched a nerve. Since the competition began on July 21, the NCAA tournament – style bracket sparked bedlam. T.I.? Nas? Joe Budden? Rick Ross? Decisions had to be – and were – made.
In the early rounds there were few upsets, as most of the higher-seeded competitors triumphed. Until the final eight MCs remained, it looked as though all four No. 1 seeds – Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, Eminem, and Andre 3000 – would land in the final four. But then, the bark of underdogs could be heard in the distance.
The lesser of the two upsets took place in the Big Punisher bracket. Andre was defeated by No. 3 seed The Game, just as his album, LAX (Geffen), was impacting nationwide. In the Pimp C bracket, Lil Wayne, the man who many thought would take home the title, lost to Ludacris, also a No. 3 seed. Unfortunately for The Game and Luda die-hards, Cinderella would not be anyone’s date to the big dance. Jay-Z and Eminem easily beat out Ludacris and Game respectively, setting up a titanic final matchup. In the end, Eminem prevailed in a surprising landslide victory. Despite no proper album releases, since 2004’s, Encore (Shady/Aftermath/Interscope), 69 percent of the votes went to Detroit’s native son easily outpacing office favorite Jay-Z’s 31 percent.
"It’s obviously an honor to have won the fans' support by being voted the Best Rapper Alive,” Eminem said in response to his victory. “I don't think that there is any one rapper that is simply the best though. Everyone who was in consideration and many others are the best at certain things, and at what they do. But since VIBE's offering the distinction, hell yeah I'll accept!"
But no matter the victor, one thing was clear: The debate about who The Best Rapper Alive is (or is not) lives on. We just might have to do it again next year.Comment

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread
Yup, saw that earlier, and meh. Eminem is one of the best MCs of all time, but right now meh. Really, his first two albums were fire but after that, really meh.
For me right now, it's Joe Budden and not even close. The funny thing is, I was never a huge fan of Budden until recently but his music is just ill.Comment

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread
The craziest thing is, I just don't get how Rick Ross could even be considered. What the hell are people hearing that I'm not?PS: You guys are great.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread
On a stranger note, on the same day Eminem was voted "best rapper alive", Hootie has captured the #1 album and single in country music.
Stereotypes be damned!Comment

If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)Comment

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread
Ugh. I hate "BEST RAPPER ALIVE" countdowns.
It should just be "BEST COMMERCIAL RAPPERS ALIVE BASED OFF SOME DUDES OPINION WHICH MEANS NOTHING MORE THAN ANY OTHER PERSON SINCE THERE IS NO REAL CRITERIA FOR WHAT MAKES A GREAT RAPPER SINCE EVERYONE HAS DIFFERENT TASTES AND THERE IS A LOT OF RAPPERS THAT ARE REALLY GOOD BUT YOU'D NEVER HEAR ABOUT THEM SO THEY SOMEHOW DON'T MAKE IT"
But that's too long, so they end up with Best Rapper Alive.PSN: VoicesWrestling

I like the way this thread has turned.
Gotta go with the Remix on 400 Degreez.

Big Money Heavyweight, maybe the most underrated album...alright, it still primarily features Mannie and Birdman, but Gillie and Wayne go hard. And Birdman...doesn't suck...that much.
