Eminem is clearly the best in that top 10. I personally don't like most of his songs but man that Cinderella Man song is brilliant.

The magazine has released a list quantifying and qualifying the major players in Hip Hop.
Rolling Stone magazine has crowned Eminem the "King of Hip Hop," ranking him above Lil Wayne, Drake, Kanye West, Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj and more.
The magazine claims that the list doesn't measure the "all-time greatest," but rather analyzes data like album sales, YouTube hits and social networking popularity to determine who has the highest index number.
Additional artists to make the final cut include Gucci Mane, Snoop Dogg, Diddy, Big Boi, B.o.B, Lupe Fiasco, Pitbull, Kid CuDi and a handful of others.

Em is on top of any list of rappers you draw up. Whether you are going by lyrics, style, sales, popularity and appeal, he is toward the upper two or three any way you dice it up. But the rest of this list? WTF? There are only three credible names of Hip Hop on that list. Em, Big Boi, and JayZ. Mentioning Big Boi with out Andre is plain robbery of talent also. This is stupid I'mma take a **** and wipe my ass with a "Rolling Stone" magazine. ******s

Well if record sales is a big part of the list then yeah it looks about right. Eminem and Jay-Z are both easily number 1A and 1 B as they both have the capablity and the record sales to back it up.

Not a lot of people like Cudi, he's different. I wouldn't even say he's a rapper more so than a pop artist at this point. I've always ****ed with Cudi though...
