So we including pop rappers now?

Nelly and Ludacris don't count. Then we should say MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice was dominant in 1992

Eminem had his definitive year when he first came out in 1999

Only Jay and Nas count in 2001. Both were dominant. Jay with the hits, Nas with the hits and winning the beef with Ether

Rappers are rappers, and if you are putting Luda and Nelly in same breath as Hammer and Ice that is telling. If you wanna say Nelly was a pop rapper (which is not really true) then fine but Luda was definitely not in that lane, he just blew, and even that Nas and Jay beef was at the end of 2001, Jay and Rocafella had a stranglehold prior. Nas took that momentum to '02.
