Eminem is going to run away with this for the simple fact that there's a perception that Pusha T is better than Malice, when he isn't.

They're about even. Pusha's got better cadence, but Malice has better lyrics.
When Em's 100% he's better than both of them though.

Malice was much better than Pusha on the first Clipse album but Pusha has been outshining him ever since hell hath no fury

I'll add that if Jay Electronica consistently put out songs like "So What You Sayin" and "Exhibit A" he'd win this whole contest hands down. Dude needs to stop fucking around and making tracks over Eternal Sunshine soundtrack samples and stick to making songs like those.

Jay Electronica is the only one on this list who isn't a showbiz-ass self-important dipshit, if that means anything.

Nah, it doesn't really. But he's dope, which does matter.

voted malice, everything he has done has eternally more replay value for me than anything anyone else in this poll did.

Agreed. He's one of very few new rappers that I don't want to send back to Africa.

malice. jay electronica is too new to be in here in my opinion. if this was a poll for rapper of 2008 - 2009 he would have gotten my vote.

Eminem.
Luda is pretty boring.
Malic is great, but being in a group counts against him.
Jay Electronica will be better than all of them.... maybe.

Em, Jay Elec has great potential and I wish Malice was in that other thread instead of Pusha.

Em by default.
Luda = hell no
Jay Elec = not enough material
Malice = good but no Pusha and definitely no Em
although i haven't liked an Em joint since Til I Collapse

This is the toughest catagory to me, but I had to vote Em.
Electralysis is the best MC of the next century
