Yesterday (Aug 5), a random top 50 rappers list appeared on Twitter, garning a lot of attention and conversation.
One of the biggest controversies in the list, which ended up becoming a top trending topic was that Joe Budden appeared as number 3 on the list, above the likes of Big Pun, Eminem, and even Notorious B.I.G.

Joe Budden being someone’s #3 should be allowed. … It is a phenomenal troll & also a great convo

Rosenberg and Ebro wanted to take the opportunity to make their own list during the show, and give their thoughts on the best MC’s of all time.
