BTW, Andre3000, where does he rank? I know more than a few ranked him. Made it to the 2d round, finished tied for 8th in the 2d, with 4 votes. http://prince.org/msg/8/286550?&pg=2 Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016

You know, I think we may have done better to have an elimination-type voting.
That's not to sound ungrateful, of course. Thanks for putting this together, namepeace. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

Let's not forget the reason for this counter programming.
Vibe put together brackets containing those that they thought should be considered by the fans as the Best Rapper Alive. And even though there were 64 entrants, Rakim wasn't even included (and, yes, Soulja Boy was). Here is their sweet sixteen: Jay-Z Fabolous Lupe Fiasco Kanye West Lil Wayne Scarface Ludacris T.I. Eminem Ghostface Killah 50 Cent Nas Andre 3000 Common The Game Snoop Dogg Their full Top 64 is kind of like mainstream radio. There's some good things going on there, but mostly it's a wasteland of missed opportunity. Science or not, respect goes out to the Org and especially namepeace for officiating. === oh, hell / clarity === [Edited 11/4/08 2:31am] | |
