The Org's Best Rapper Alive Contest -- IN PROGRESS . . . name your TEN NOMINEES!!!!

Reference: http://prince.org/msg/8/285482?&pg=1

Everyone:

After the debacle of the Vibe Best Rapper Alive poll results, it appears there's some support for doing an Org poll.

So here's how I propose to handle it.

1. Each Orger can submit 5 nominations.

2. The top 50 nominees will be in play for a final poll.

3. We hold 3 rounds of voting where Orgers vote for 3 names. The 1st round will cut the list to 25, the next round, to 5, and the final round, to 1.

4. Voting starts tomorrow.

Thoughts?

Don't know about the best thing, but here are a few I like.





....Jalal Mansur Nuriddin





...Rakim





...Chuck D.





...KRS-One



I know he'll get no votes because he's really a writer and not a rapper by trade but...



...spoken word sections by Quincy Troupe

Listen to River Town Packin House Blues and tell me he shouldn't be considered.




Since everyone else is jumping the gun, I figured I would too. lurking
