Watching espn and they have a mt.rushmore for sports figures from certain states...so i wanted to see you guys "Hip Hop Mt.Rushmore"...

But since there are so many figures from numerous areas, i'd figure we could have it split up into regions...so dudes can do a mt.rushmore for:

East Coast
West Coast
Down South
Midwest

Or even cities:
NYC
LA/Cali
Det
Philly
Houston
Miami
Atlanta

Pac, Common, Big (even though I rather have Jay), Andre 300

And if we just had one in the West
Pac, Dre, Cube, Eazy (damn I'd feel bad for snoop)
 
this is how i think the collective Hip Hop fraternity will see it not necessarily who i think is best
with that said

BIG, 2Pac, Jay
and the last spot would be between Nas,Em or Rakim.

section by section

West
Pac, Dre, Snoop, Cube

South
Scarface,Big Boi, A 3000, Weezy

Midwest
Em, Kanye, Common, Nelly

East
BIG, Jay, Nas, Rakim

4 some reason i feel like ppl are gonna come in here and put Immortal Technique and Vinnie Paz and just berate all the popular artists.... like Jedi MindTricks and artists have etched their names into Hip Hop

#%!! outa here
Its one thing to like an unpopular artist but to be delusional about actual impact influence and success is just immature and plain denial
thats not to say I believe my list is definitive
*waits patiently*
 
East(NYC): Big L, Kool G Rap, Nas, Big Pun, Biggie, Rakim, KRS, yea too many to list.. it's gonna be a huge monument.

Overall 1 per area: Rakim, Scarface, Pac, Em.

Obviously, not a list of the best MC's. Just MC's who have played a large role in the game.
 
Midwest -
Em
Common/Twista (you can argue which one was the most influential)
Nelly/Bone
Ye

Detroit - Icewood, Em, Dilla, MC Breed/Proof

Damn shame everybody on that list dead outside Em

West: Pac, Dre, Cube, Easy-E
East: BIG, Hov, Nas, Rakim
Midwest: Em, Common, Kanye, Bone
South: Outkast, Scarface, UGK, Weezy
 
The Hip Hop Mt. Rushmore without Rakim would be like the real Mt. Rushmore without George Washington.

The Hip Hop Mt. Rushmore with Lil Wayne would be like George W. Bush being added to the real Mt. Rushmore.
