i think you are confusing "worth" with "commercial", because if i gotta choose between Chamillionare with "Ridin'" and for instance Joe Blaq with "The W", well i think it's obvious...  8)

Of coruse but other regions had dope undergorund, non mainstream joints too but these awards are for mainstream rappers and like I said besides, Snoop, Game, E40 and Cube the Westcoast didnt do anything worth mentioning.

A whole lot of ridiculous nominees...

Hope Lupe wins some, even though I personally don't care for his album. Originality should be rewarded.

Best Rap/Sung Collaboration:
Akon feat. Eminem - Smack That
Beyoncé feat. Jay-Z - Deja Vu
Eminem feat. Nate Dogg - Shake That
Jamie Foxx feat. Ludacris - Unpredictable
