He's got alot of ill cats on there, I would have left a few out but most are ill. Moe Dee was mad ill. I wouldnt have had Mellie Mel as number one though. Thats probly cause he was like the only MC when he was a kid that was out then. Thats phat he picked Rakim, Pharoah Monch, Slick Rick, Chuck D all the cats who started it. Cool shit.
curtis75black
Yeah he was ill. and if ever check the book out he has the standards to check for in a mc. Alot of cats who put down their list it's who is hot at the time. Not really what the person has done or what they about. So when it came down to his list I gave it some more props than a VH1, MTV or any Hip Hop Mag. because of the 17 Standards.
