Understood and without concerns on any category except for the last one.
Best Rappers In Rock Bands.
You forgot completely about Koby Dick of Papa Roach. Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park is alright too. Also, Jim Korthe of 3rd Strike is sweet. Um...that's all I can think of right now.

Wow, people actually read it, lol. Eternal, Koby Dick is okay, but not that good rapping-wise as of late. Shinoda sounds the same with all of his sh*t lately; Meteora is a horrible album. But you're right about Jim Korthe, I just didn't know his name, lol. Divine, your opinions are respected; I agree with mostly everything you said. As far as mainstream rap goes, you're right; it is one big joke. Well, let's see if some more people can post up on this.
Peace

Yeah Koby has kinda slid from Rap/Metal to a more steady Rock, you're right. But he was pretty sweet on Infest. Also, I figured you'd put Korthe up I was shocked when you didn't. Figured you'd agree though, that guy is insane. Yo, check out 3rdStrike.com and watch the No Light video. It's decent. Also, they released Redemption.
Well, uh, back to Rap, LoL.
I don't know, maybe I got a bad song. I downloaded Rip the Jacker and honestly, I don't see the big deal about Canibus. Can someone help me find a good one by him so I can try to determine if he is good or not because judging from this song he isn't really good...LoL.

I forgot about adding Solvi, Omar and Stoney from Quarashi to the best Rock-rappers list. They are amazing. Also, I excluded Atmosphere from the Underrated Rap Group category. They truly need more recognition for their skills. Slug is such a great story teller.
