It bugs me that people consider T-Pain and Akon rappers. That's simlple racism. There's no reason to think they're rappers other than they're black.

Yes, I know racism's too strong of a word, but I couldn't think of another word.

How can hip-hop be dead if Wu-Tang is forever?

It bugs me that some of these artists are ahead of Em, & that Birdman is barely behind Em. Also, how the fuck is Ludacris richer than Nelly? I love Luda but Nelly's got all those female fans. He's like an R&B rapper, like LL Cool J. Always thought Nelly made a lot more sales wise than he did, even though his first 2 albums sold a shitload.

How is Master P still bring in money? At least guys like Birdman and Diddy are still big names and you see them attached to various projects, but when's the last time Master P or anyone affiliated with him done anything? Or is he still raking in the money from the 90s.

This.

& Master P has like a hundred businesses, even more than Diddy does, which is saying something. 50 obviously raps a lot more than a bunch of these guys, material wise, but he also has a lot of side endeavors like most of em too. Only reason Dre is as high as he is, is because of the Dre beats.

I'm surprised Em's that high.
Fuck top five, bitch, I'm top four
And that includes Biggie and Pac, whore
And I got an Evil Twin
So who the fuck do you think that third and that fourth spot's for?
