We've accomplished nothing!)

if you don't want to participate then fine, don't. you don't need to be a debbie downer about the whole process. Let the rest of us enjoy our discussions about the artists we pick and why we picked them.

If every forum always voted for "Who influenced the most" we'd always end up with the same couple rappers.

Exactly.

oh and personally Zion I > Wu Tang.

The Wu is just overrated.

haha, nah, it's just a lot of artists seem overrated to me. I understand the Wu did a lot for hip hop but I think over time peope have hyped them up more and more. I think it's mainly to do with the fact that when you look back at things from the past, you tend to see them in a more generous light.

No I'm not, I'm saying the polls are pointless either way. I'm saying if we're voting on that basis, it's pointless. If we're voting on the basis of personal favorites, it's pointless.

Finally Ghostface is getting the votes he deserves. I was shocked a couple days ago when I was the only one who had voted for him.
