Choosing between Phife and Q-Tip would be hard for me. I really don't like Q-Tip's solo music, but he ruled ATCQ.

RE the matter at hand, I really hate voting against Big Daddy Kane because he's more of a pioneer, has a cooler voice and has continued to do good work since his heyday (here's one example):



But still, Q-Tip wins.

Q-Tip: 7
Big Daddy Kane: 0
