    Short ain't a legend in terms of Skill. That ? is a legend in terms of longevity, putting his area on the hip hop map and for saying whatever the ? he wanted on his records an not giving a ? who he offends. Plus, he did all that ? on the independant grind and STILL got rich off of it.

    Personally, I can't stand the ? . But I can't hate on his hustle of his impact.

    And the reason that he was successful is he gave a voice to an area that didn't have nobody that was from where they was from and talked like they talked doing it big. So ? supported him.

    But I'd have to say Gucci. Can't figure the ? out for the life of me.

    Master P, nothing dude has ever done says quality. From the gimmicky ass album cover, generic Beats by the Pound beats, No Limit Gear, P. Miller clothing, his movies,etc.

    I'd have to say Li'l Wayne. Forget about him being faker than li'l Kim's face and queerer than a $3 bill...but I don't hear any talent. I can see he's trying to be 'different' with that autotune-rockstar ? ...but even before that, I don't hear any talent. His lyrics are sub-par and so are his punchlines...I'm saying everyone's said some stupid ? ..a corny punchline or whatever, but IMO that's all this guy's done... drop hot garbage.

    Cam'RON- Dude is straight TRASH to me, his last "decent" album was Come Home With Me and I cant for the life of me figure out how this guy has fans..

    Gucci Mane- I swear this guy is terrible. Living in the south and just listening to the people praising him makes me sick

    Lil Wayne- Just the fact that THIS is with whom people want to place thier faith for the "future" of rap? THIS guy is the best we can do? THIS GUY is the greatest rapper alive?? WTF????!?!??!?

    Dude is straight trash to me. Perhaps I'll alleviate a bit and put an "in my opinion" asterisk next to him because niether him nor dip set have never peaked my interest, but at LEAST during Come Home With Me I could see how people could like him, but it seemed like dude became a ? nursery rhyme rapper after that and its just not tolerable for me...

    I used to not like him either. But certain artists have to grow on you. Like E-40. Check out Wood Wheel.. or Murder
