Anticipation has made it
Aceyalone 1-0 Diabolic

Yeah, Aceyalone a clear winner for me.

Looks like the luck of the draw wasn't too kind on Diabolic, I do like him.
He conveys a real passion in his music and his diss track on Tyler The Creator was brilliant



But he's got a long way to go to match up with a veteran like Aceyalone.

Aceyalone 3
Diabolic 0

I'm the odd man out here as my pick is Diabolic. Both are great MC's, but Diabolic clearly goes harder. Completely different styles and lyrical content, but Diabolic is more of my scene right now.

Aceyalone - 4
Diabolic - 1





I've followed Acey for a few years, and I love his styles. His many styles. Listening to his albums in order, you see the creativity brewing and the skills getting better. Plus, I smoked with him after his show.

P.S. We gotta at least bring it to 100, but honestly, I think it should've been a little more encompassing, otherwise why include artists like Will Smith? At least go to 100; you should add Immortal Technique, The Grouch, Myka 9, Eligh, Sunspot Jonz, The Gift of Gab, E-40, Mac Dre, MC Paul Barman, Zumbi of Zion I, Doseone, Tech N9ne, Pharoahe Monch, Illogic, Apathy, Masta Ace, MURS, Abstract Rude, Busdriver, Cage.

Hold up, what?
Care to expand on that. What was he like?

I think we could make it an even 128 for bracketology's sake. (128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1). Gotta add Canibus, Chino XL, R.A. The Rugged Man, DMX, Lil Wayne, The Game, Ill Bill, Saigon to your list, amongst others.

Another vote for Aceyalone here. I need to listen to more of this guy.

Aceyalone - 5
Diabolic - 1

Additional vote for Ace.
Diabolic sounds like he should be in the Demigodz, which isn't so bad, but I'm less inclined to that whole style than I am with the more rooty hip hop with thought-provoking lyrics and styles.
