		<description><![CDATA[TECH N9NE is light years ahead of these artists as far as over all sales go. This list is for the #1 Independant Artist, NOT the best rapper. Fans live in this dream world were they think these rappers make crazy do. I can tell you that over half the people on that list are broke as fuck. Tech N9ne fans BUY albums NOT bootleg them for free. How do you expect legends like Sean Price, Raekwon, Styles P, Fat Joe etc. etc. to make earn a living when all you guys do is download everything for free (Which 90% of Tech fans do not do) + the people wont support there artist and pay $20 a ticket to see them live when they have a show. Tech N9ne also has a full clothing line where people religiously buy gear and they also tour over 250-300 DAYS A YEAR. When your record label owner gets chauffeured in a $550,000 MAYBACH you tell me whos making the most money...... End of discussion!  Tecca Nina!!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Raekwon with 1%...WTF??  I&#039;m not saying stop in your tracks in the late 80&#039;s and 90&#039;s, but figure out where the true identities in hip hop came from in your generation and what they stand for.  Immortal Technique should have been rated higher too.  Maybe just too smart for main stream for todays hip pop.

Find the roots of truth and plant a seed.  Today we realize everything aint what it seems.  So disappointing, but whats the loss when the fan bases faces remain glowing?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think there should be a choice to pick more than one. I picked Raekwon, but also I think Sean Price, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Redman, Styles P, ShowBiz &amp; A.G., O.C., Sadat X, JadaKiss, Sheek Louch, Diamond D, and list of other emcees belong on the list. Mac Miller doesn&#039;t belong on the list!!]]></description>
