2Pac was ranked #1. I think Jay-Z, BIG, Rakim, & Nas filled out the top 5.

It was your typical bullshyt list basically, if I'm remembering correctly.

you talking bout that all-time list they did in like 2001?

i think they were the 1st ones to do a televised list but it was different from the others because they based it off of fan votes. which is why the list turned out to be a mess because you can only vote for 1 person/group. because of that, you had stuff like kool g rap & dj polo in the top 35.

with that said, you couldnt really criticize it. and i'd even go as far as to say that it was the best list because they managed to leave less stones un-turned than the lists that these other stations sat down to put together. lets see nas criticize these other lists. then, i'd be impressed.

who agrees wit Nas that Ice Cube should be ranked higher than him?

even tho i dont agree i would understand somebody saying Cube is the better mc....

he was speaking on alot of things Nas rapped about years earlier... he's one of the greatest storytellers, was conscious, political, and gangsta

Cube is one of the greats, but he had, arguably, the steepest fall-off in the history of HipHop.

Cube had a 3 album run that is top 5 maybe even top 3 in hip hop:

Amerikkka's Most Wanted
Kill At Will EP
Death Certificate

He was going at Jewish people with a Nation of Islam type of anger :whew:
