Some shit on here really doesn't make any sense. Canibus listed Eminem in his five despite the fact that they have both dissed one another. And considering that in Second Round Knockout he rapped "The greatest rapper of all time died on March 9th" why is Biggie not on his list.
Trick Daddy and Trina's lists just so what is wrong with hiphop today.

I already knew & didnt like that list.
Since: Most guys just named legends (they cant be called wrong then) or famous rappers of today. Of course Rakim thought he had to be somethin special, lol, kinda funny I think.

...Canibus listed Eminem in his five despite the fact that they have both dissed one another...
Seems you don't really know how that beef started. Canibus met Em' on a tour back in the days and asked for a collabo on the track "Phuck U" (which you can find on Bis' "2000 B.C."). But Bis once claimed, that Em' ghost-wrote the lyrics for LL Cool J's "The Ripper Strikes Back", which is a diss against Bis. And so Em' rejected the collabo because he thought it could look like a LL diss and he mentioned that situation in a few songs. So it's more a personal beef and Bis can't say that Em' is whack, because he wanted to do a song with him back in the days. And do you remember that Em' diss versus Benzino named "Nail In The Coffin'"? Em' had some good words for Bis on there: "Life's a bitch, ain't it Raymond?/ Here, let me break it this shit down in laymen's terms for you just to make sure that you can understand this/ And Canibus ain't using too many complicated fuckin' words for you." So the beef is almost over and if not, they are respecting each other though.
...And considering that in Second Round Knockout he rapped "The greatest rapper of all time died on March 9th" why is Biggie not on his list...
Yeah, that's what I'm suprised about ???

I ordered it from hiphopsite.com, and it's not here yet.
I don't think they ship it untill the release date so I might have to wait 'till next week to get it. >:(
He's not a big name but I'm kinda suprised it's not ripped and on mIRC yet.

*cant understand why Biggie is on Snoops list when Eazy and Cube are left off*
