The Game upsets Andre 3000, final four is now set
So goes the NCAA Tournament, so goes VIBE’s Best Rapper Alive tournament. Despite what many believed would be a final four made up entirely of number one seeds, fans of Ludacris and The Game had slightly different plans.

The major upset came via the Pimp C bracket, where number three seeded Ludacris beat out number one seeded Lil Wayne. The self-proclaimed Best Rapper Alive fell to Luda, who received 57 percent of the vote. The Game, also a number three seed in the Big Punisher bracket, beat out that bracket’s number one seed, Andre 3000 by 53 percent.
Over 78,000 votes were recorded in the fourth round.

Number one seeded Jay-Z beat out his little brother Kanye West, 65 percent to 35 percent, while number one seed Eminem beat out Nas in the 2Pac bracket.

VIBE’s Best Rapper Alive Final Four is now as follows: Jay-Z versus Ludacris and Eminem versus The Game. Voters have until August 24 to determine the tournament’s championship match up. Who will it be? You decide at VIBE.com/bestrapper.

and if that's the case, then it has to be Eminem crowned best rapper alive, because after all even nas told you "eminem murdered you on your own..."

I can see why you might say Eminem, but Ludacris And Game Are Better Rappers Than Jay-Z?!!

I guess everybody has the right to their own opinion, but you killed me with that one, son.

GTFOH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IMO, Wayne should have beat Luda and Andre 3000 should have beat Game. I personally think Nas should have beat Em, but both of them deserve to be top four IMO, so I'm cool with that one.

Toup Four Alive = Jay-Z, Nas, Eminem & Lil' Wayne. IMO.

Fabuless · 08-19-2008, 12:08 PM

k so this is how that goes imo

jay will win against luda, but not by much, because luda has a nice buzz goin right now

em will win against game because even the game fans arent gonna front on that one

then jay will probably beat em because its a popularity contest

Fabuless · 08-19-2008, 12:10 PM

or maybe em will win because of the majority of white votes

where cham?

BrooklynZ Finest · 08-19-2008, 12:21 PM

game deserves to be in the top 4

G unit Gangsta · 08-19-2008, 02:53 PM

Eminem>Jay-Z>Ludacris>The Game

Eminem killed Jay on his own track, Luda killed game on his own track

and i think that Hova is bettter than Luda

atrboomdizzle · 08-19-2008, 02:55 PM

i really think that nas shouldve won, but none of us should get too upset about this, because whoever wins is based on fan voting, and that shouldnt change who each of us thinks is the best rapper alive

What the fuck? How can you say Lil' Wayne amongst the names of the other 3? Wayne doesn't hold a candle to any of them.

This "tournament" does not mean shit.i mean , it's only a few people voting , not ALL of the hip-hop fans.but , it's still gd to c jay-z and eminem out there.the final needs to be mister shawn carter versus mister marshall mathers.props for the article tho.

kingjanjic · 08-19-2008, 08:14 PM
