Post Best Rap Artist Tourney ROUND 2

The first round was a bit of a weeding out process. Since 128 isnt a square root number that we require, we are going to use the same 8 groups A-H... only this time we pick the top 4. This will move along 32 qualifiers into the 3rd round.

PICK YOUR FAVORITE 4 ARTISTS IN EACH GROUP

Group A
Jay-Z
Mos Def
N.W.A.
Cypress Hill
Gangstarr
Redman
Kool Keith
Big L

Group B
Nas
Ludacris
Marley Marl
Outkast
The Roots
Z-Ro *7-way tie (2 votes)
Boshido *7-way tie (2 votes)
Big Tymers *7-way tie (2 votes)
Lloyd Banks *7-way tie (2 votes)
Freeway *7-way tie (2 votes)
Big Punisher *7-way tie (2 votes)
Twista *7-way tie (2 votes)

Group C
Snoop Dogg
Run-DMC
Eric B. & Rakim
Wu-Tang Clan
Cannibal Ox
Scarface
Def Squad
Afrika Bambaataa *2-way tie (3 votes)
Pharcyde *2-way tie (3 votes)

Group D
2pac
Big Daddy Kane
Jurassic 5
Bone Thugz-N-Harmony
GZA
Trick Daddy
Royce Da 5'9 *3-way tie (3 votes)
Aesop Rock *3-way tie (3 votes)
Nate Dogg *3-way tie (3 votes)

Group E
Talib Kweli
A Tribe Called Quest
Common
Busta Rhymes
Sugar Hill Gang
Eazy E
LL Cool J
Method Man

Group F
Notorious B.I.G
Ice Cube
Dr. Dre
Blackalicious
Slick Rick
Az
Kurupt *6-way tie (2 votes)
Everlast *6-way tie (2 votes)
Canibus *6-way tie (2 votes)
Wyclef Jean *6-way tie (2 votes)
Swollen Members *6-way tie (2 votes)
Atmosphere *6-way tie (2 votes)

Group G
Eminem
Kanye West
DMX
Dead Prez
MF Doom
De La Soul
Mobb Deep
Dilated Peoples

Group H
KRS-One
Public Enemy
Del Tha Funky Homosapien
Beastie Boys
Heavy D
Ice T
Ol' Dirty Bastard
Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five


* NOTE:
There were a ton of ties. I originally tried to make up for this by balancing out a few artists into other groups, however, this ended up not being the best solution. Unfortunately, the best solution is to include ALL ties. Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five found a comfortable spot in the last group since there was a 2-point gap between the winners and two potential ties at 2 points.

Da Brat, Kanye West, Ludacris, and 50 Cent, WTF?


How about those hanging chads? Satchmo demands a recount?

I'm going to recount and allow multiple-way ties.

Re-count and re-edit completed.

Luda scored a big 5!
Kanye got 4!

Since the hanging chads were called in, 50 cent and Da Brat did not make it into Round 2.
