Cool As A Fan

The No Bullshit Guide to Hip Hop Demographics
by Justin Boland

As Justin points out, the article by Davey D is essential reading.
By no means do the two offer definitive answers. Instead, they provide essential pieces to a large, and complex, puzzle!

MCee

Taking a cue from SportsCenter's "Mt. Rushmore of Sports," my buddy Tom flipped the script and asked me, "If you could make a Mt. Rushmore of MC's, who would you put up there?"

I sat and pondered for a minute.

"Not who you think the best MC's are," he explained, "just your personal favorites."

As of today, my answers are (from left to right):

Rakim
Mos Def
Black Thought
Tupac

Who's on your Mt. Rushmore?

Aside from her "chirpy Valley-girl inflections" as Kelly Kapoor in The Office, she's also written several of the show's greatest episodes. Hats off to you Ms. Kaling!
