... guest appearances - Andre did even less this year than he did in 2007. There’s not even a handful of verses to judge him on. Should the Hip-Hop Brain Trust members be found guilty of treason for giving Andre a slot in the top 10 despite minimum output? Absolutely not. Tres Stacks has illustrated natural bravura over brainless bravado, dropping judiciously dope couplets laced with gentlemanly swagger that brew to a crescendo and shed every note in their way. Full Story How Andre 3000 higher than T.I. without even ...

Three years since the release of his classic Let's Get It: Thug Motivation 101, he feels that the experience he has under his belt has made him a better artist. Not a hustler who raps, but an artist. Young is dedicated to his craft, as his new collaboration with Kanye West, "Put On," proves. Don't pack your heavy coat away yet. The Snowman will keep the summer on frio. 9.

Hot or Not? Kanye is MTV's #1

... Again, I'm mystified by the inclusion of Andre! "No album, no single, only two guest appearances -- Andre did even less this year than he did in 2007. There's not even a handful of verses to judge him on. Should the Hip-Hop Brain Trust members be found guilty of treason for giving Andre a slot in the top 10 despite minimum output?" Andre is definitely dope overall, but this is the wrong list for him to appear on based on the countdown's logic. I think they added him so they wouldn't look stupid. Hell, they might as well put Biggie on there if it's like that. ...
