50 is on top at the moment in terms of mainstream success and money, i think kanye is definately up there at the mo in a lot of ppl's eyes tho hes never gonna be as be as 50 has been at least on the mainstream side of things !

If your talking bout having the game on lock, nobody. The game is wide open now. Even tho the south is the thing now. Everything now seems to have a southern feel to it as fars as beatz are concern. But there is no one person (ala biggie and tupac) that has the game on lock.

firstly its not a game

and secondly the ones who are on top are actually a long way below. thats where digging comes into it.

Who are y'all feelin right this second

This is a thread to find out who y'all are feelin as of right now. Who is in your cd playa, mp3, whatever. I gotta keep it down south and say im feelin Little Brother right now. I think hip hop is in a very critical stage right now in which we could get eaten alive by the suits if were not careful. I would love to hear hip hop go right back to that old Tribe style like Little Brother is doing. Soft melodic sounds, and the rappers sound a little like the backpack rappers talib common and them.

Im feelin Ghostfaces joint "Run" and his joint off the new Kay Slay album. Pretty Tony is suppose to drop on apr 27. Dead Prez is on some real shit. Im a loyal Cam fan, he always be comin out with some hot tracks over Hot97, and he's gonna make some noise with his Purple Haze album when it drops, believe that patna

As far as the industry, 50's got it right now. As far as keeping the rap game on lock as a whole, nobody.

I agree wit most of yall on the board. The game is pretty open. 50 may have a nice spot for himself but it's definitely still wide open. Would love to see Dead Prez blow, waiting for that Pete Rock Soul Survivors II.

To be honest, I would like to see one of us take the spot in the game...Bring some freshness back in wit something different.

You gotta give props to Kanye. Production wise (and partly lyrically), you could always put Blaze and, in Canada, I'm really feeling Kardinal Offishal. He's DA MAN?!

Actually, I wonder if he's known in the US? Is he?!

Snatch! I completely forgot Twista... His comeback Is the SHIT TOO!
