(Shaking head vigorously) I'd really like to know the selection criteria for what makes someone a "King." Influence? Record sales? A vagina?
Anyone could make a decent case for Eminem and Wayne at #1 and 2. But seriously, Rolling Stone: Drake above Kanye and Jay-Z, then Nicki Minaj over... everyone else? Minaj is clearly already the Queen of Hip-hop (if you want to call her that), but you have to put her on the man list too?
Gucci's barely done anything, Pitbull isn't even hip hop, and Waka Flocka is a bum. Hell, I didn't even know Ludacris was still alive! Fab at 14 and Big Boi at 20 are a shame.
It's like they just pulled names out of a hat.

I laughed when I saw Pitbull on that list. WTH!
