Seconded! I'm not going to offer criticisms about Bonnaroo (seeing as how I wasn't there), but I will say this: Kanye West is possibly the most deservest to be on this list. I admire him for taking hip-hop past "I'm the best and I'm gonna talk about it for forty minutes" but more people need to understand that he is by no means a good rapper. Good beats and fantastic production don't guarantee quality of music, and it is unfortunate that he is esteemed as the best modern rapper when Lupe and Lil Wayne work so hard.
