    Looks like you will get no serious response. Lol... But I do question your list.

    If you're going to start your list off with sales and impact... Nas and Kendrick Lamar can't be on the list. Plus Jay-Z retired Nas for a while.

    How does Kane make your list and not LL Cool J. I grew up in NYC during the 80's and LL's album Radio took the rap world by storm. Just watch the movie Krush Groove. Plus he made a lot of albums as well.

    I think you should have Outkast instead of Andre by himself, and the same with NWA and Ice Cube.

    But I really don't think record sales should be part of the criteria when it comes to music of any kind because of different eras and the control the record industry has in the music industry.
