Download or read book G O A T written by Curtis M. Fowler and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rap is a genre of music that will almost always provoke some type of emotion. Our book is based off one of those emotions-- the ongoing debate about who are the greatest rappers of all time (G.O.A.T.). But instead of just throwing our personal opinions out there, we came up with a mathematical system that kept us as honest and objective as possible. Each artist was rated numerically based off ten criteria, and these numbers also included data from public album averages from two different sites. These total numbers put them in order-- not us. We started this project on August 12, 2012, and did not finish until September 30, 2013. So a lot of work, time, integrity, and attention were put into it. This book has been fun and at times chaotic, but it has given us a new appreciation for the genre. Please do not take this book too serious, but respect the work and effort put into it. We would like to give much respect and luv to all the artists keeping Hip Hop alive and respected.
