Description
More than a decade long study, analyzing almost every single rapper ever who was or is in any way note worthy. Each artist is judged based on 5 categories and NONE of them include my opinion in any way (unlike those other lists). Extensive work and research put into this to uncover who is in fact the "best" rapper of all time.
