Chris Rock's Top Five=Blasphemous?

[Sccit]

duno if anyone caught this movie yet....but throughout the film, all the characters were namin their top five rappers of all time. not once in the entire movie was 2pac mentioned in someone's top 5....in fact, pretty much no west coast rappers at all. ice-t was mentioned in someones top 5 and got laughed off. but not one list wit 2pac. thats gota get some peeps here mad enough to boycott the movie, rite?


aside from that, it was a good movie...probably chris rock's best since cb4. i'd recommend it.

well a top 5is a person's opinion about their favorite rappers, not an academic debate about who the best rappers are. everyone's entitled to their own opinion.

of course, but u would think throughout the movie at least 1 person would have pac in there (as he is typically in everyones top 5).....not really a big deal, just thought it was awkward and would ruffle some feathers round here.

I know Chris Rock is an old school, East Coast kinda guy. If people in the movie are his age from NYC maybe they were all really influenced by the Pac/Biggie war in the 90's.

it's almost like they purposely dismiss the west....and the one scene where some1 mentions ice-t it gets a shock reply of "whatttt??!!"

  Are we really at a point where we are catching feelings over the opinions of fictional characters in a movie?

Top Five lists is something you entertain in adolescence (i.e it is immature).
Real men with facial hair don't care.

Chris Rock was interviewed by Ebro on Hot 97 (or whatever NY station it was), and Ebro asked his top five. Chris Rock put Pac in it but said Biggie didn't qualify due to the small body of work.  Big statement coming from a guy from Brooklyn himself talking on an NY radio station.
