Hip-Hop Rankings

I think Kool Moe Dee was on the money with his rubric for ranking the 50 Greatest MCs. I wonder how he decided to come up with the different terms that would make up a great MC. For example, one of the descriptions was having "flavor". It was funny that he could actually put a true definition to this word and make it work for his list.

He defined flavor as "the ability to have a signature energy to their rhyme style". I guess Jay-Z's flavor would be being able to put together one hell of a career based on rhymes that he has never once had to write down in order to recite!
