Hip Hop Mount Rushmore: Whose on it?

[SomaliLandCruiser]

Came in here to check if dylan was mentioned...not disappointed

 

[Dont@Me]

Tupac definitely. He is the hip hop JFK who was wrongfully assassinated.

When you say presidential I think politics... So jay-z should be up there because he is probably the most powerful rapper, although May not even like dude now.

Jay-z is easily the Ronald regan.
Who is the Obama of hip hop?
JJ ice fish may be the BUSH of hip hop?-

 

[Damnshow]

Rick Rubin (historical foundation)

Eminem (greatest and best selling MC overall)

Lyor Cohen (most influential executive)

Iggy Azelea (most popular and best female MC, and leader of the new generation)

You can't change history, this is where pioneers are important by how the question was posed. It's not about paying homage, it's about what it is.
