Rolling Stone Magazine Crowns Eminem The "King Of Hip Hop"

[CRASH DUMMY]

Good choice, Eminem is god.

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.

Look at the list posted. Most of Those other rappers are trash when it comes to quality hip hop. Em is solid, no wonder he's no1 against that.

All of those guys are crap.

It's about number of hits or searches etc...

Quality, populairty and sales are all different things. Have all three and you'll be pissing in a toilet made out of gold.

what happened to 50 cent.

[blaze778]

Album sales aren't exactly a way to measure greatness, but this is no surprise in this case.

Eminem is the man, and everyone else is horrible.

Lil Wayne @ #2.

More proof that Hip Hop is dead.

[Chew BackAtacha]

terrible list

but eminem wouldn't even tell you he's king

where the **** is andre 3000? He's the best

im sorry, but lil wayne is one of the worst rappers of all time, he's spawned a whole generation of rappers WHO DONT MAKE ANY SENSE, they just rhyme random words with no context, he's the family guy of rap

it just goes to show you say something long enough, people start to believe it

[forget]

I have no problem with this choice.
