Big Pimpin was out a lot longer than Country Grammar. These lists be about the more current songs.

They faded videos out after they been on tv for awhile.

He can make an argument that he was from Fall 98-Late 99 maybe even going into Spring 2000.

If not that whole period, part of it.

Even if someone else might have been #1 one time or another, Hov was in consideration for hottest rapper in the game for at least 6 years straight so overall he is the hottest rapper from 98-03.
lmaoooooo ... fukk outta here... how he he hot in 2001 when Nas coffined him?? lmao

It was a magical time in hip hop and r&b. The East Coast was on top but the west coast was still a force. The south was doing it's thing with No Limit but their run on top was coming to end and you had Cash Money taking over. Can't forget Outkast and the Dungeon Family.

Hip hop and r&b seemed more fun back then. Of course 9/11 changed everything but things we're still popping in music. I feel like 2005 was when things kind of died. Ironically that was the year Nas and Jay-Z squashed the beef.

I used to record a lot of 106 episodes, Rap City, Comic View, etc and had a bunch of them on my VHS tapes along with some other programming from the early 2000s. My mom threw all them away when I went off to the military because she thought I didn't want them anymore since we didn't have a vcr anymore.

Camel hump riders disgust me. Imagine calling a man "hov" unironically. Hoev was never the hottest, juvenile and dmx were definitely hotter 98-99, then em and dre/aftermath 99-2003, nelly 2001-2003, ja rule was hotter from 2000-2002. You nikkas and this revisionism gonna stop. You nikkas are the rap fan equivalent of sex workers, Y'all dikkride because of money.
You just spoke about gay shyt more in one paragraph than I do in a whole decade :dame:

Just about everyone u named except maybe Em was hot for 2 maybe 3 albums. Hov dropped an album every year for 8 years straight with at least 3 of them being classic. All 6 albums Hov dropped from 98-03 went triple platinum or better. Nobody else did that during that time nor any other time in history for that matter.

Ja was hotter in 02? Based on what? Last Temptation barely went platinum. And I fukked with the album, literally was just listening to it a week or 2 ago but most people wasn’t fukkin with it.

Hov not ever being the hottest rapper in the game is some of the most revisionist history I ever seen :hhh:

He had to include the entire label in order to elevate himself to their level :laff:
Hov sold like 95% of the records Rocafella sold up until that time :gucci:

2005 was a great year

I’d say 2006 was when it felt like it was dying to me. Even tho that was a good year overall too, it just felt different. Then 2007 was :hhh:
