Its gona be JayZ or Snoop.  Eminem wont be huge again for another year, and 50 will still be huge, but he's going to tail off abit.  Maybe if Dre's album drops he will be king, but Im not sure if Detox is gona come out for a while yet.  Snoop's blowing up huge again and JayZ has always been "on top" of the rap game so to speak.  Just my opinion tho, dont hate 8)

Ja has like no street credibility, how on earth is he tied with 50? I don't think 50 is shook by the way, Fatal is a lot nicer than Ja, but look who backing 50.. Ja doesn't stand a chance if everyone backing 50 got in on it.

As for next year, I think Jay-Z could be on top, if Black Album turns out good. There's a good chance it won't though, because having so many different producers may be hard to make into a consistent album. Dre has too many things ahead of him before he gets his album out. Ice Cube's, Rakim's, Obie's, and possibly Eve's, if the rumors come true and she signs to Aftermath. Then there's the rumors Styles will go to Aftermath as well. Dre in 2005, or late 2004 at the earliest. Eminem is dropping next summer I believe, so he could take 2004 if he comes strong, but my gut is telling me it's going to be Jay-Z. But, you never know, there are plenty of others who could come big.

Eminem for sure.  It's very likely that he will release an album around spring/summer and it will be his best yet and it will still sell like crazy.

Rakim, if his album is as good as expected then he will rule well into 2004.

lol @ Ja suggestion...

Just because him and 50 are beefin doesn't mean that he'll rule hip hop in 04... he's fallin now, and he changes his image more than a chameleon.

Shady/Aftermath for sure

If Jay-Z's album is done right, it'll do extremely well. Actually, there's too much shit dropping and "supposedly" dropping that it's hard to predict.

lyrically: nas, rakim, gangstarr
beats: the whole shady/aftermath click
sales: 50, ja, em, nas, jay-z (even though the black album will be straight bullshit)

and all around...TQ

Eminem
50 Cent
Nelly
Ludacris
