    The list seemed to feature all the notable choices, although i don't think they're neccessarily in the right order.

    My only problem is why they have Kanye at 5 and why ***** is on the list at all?

      Kanye is far too high. Biggie, Pac, Nas & Rakim are too low. Preemo and Wu Tang should be above Lil Wayne.

      Why the fudge is ***** on there????

      The list has mostly the right names but the order is just wrong.
