If its gonna be on PS1, it'll pry cost 20 bucks. I would say Eminem is the most well-known rapper.

Well there had been old rappers such as Run DMC  . But then, Eminem, people like him because of his rhymes, like me, not because hes white. I hope that his future turns out great.

Define biggest...
Do you mean the most popular rapper by commercial standards? Cause that does not mean the best. Sales in the rap industry are horrible incdications of talent.
But if that's what you mean, probably Jay-Z, 50 Cent, Eminem, Ja Rule, and Nelly are the answer.
If you mean most skilled you should look to rappers like Mr. Lif, Guru, GZA, Masta Ace, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Eminem, Ghostface Killah, Nas, Pharoahe Monch, Aesop Rock, Canibus, Blueprint, Del The Funkee Homosapien, Cage, Brother Ali, and J-Live. |

Sales in anything is a horrible show of talent. Like look at boy/girl bands...

Well, it shows you the best boy/girl groups I guess... 
You are right. Look at most bands. They're best albums aren't always the biggest sellers.
(EX: Pinkerton )

I despise boy/girl bands. They have no talent and waste space on the radio. The best albums set up the next album, which sells more.

Not true... Some incredibly talented bands/artists get a lot of sales...
In general I guess you could say its true but not all times. |

They do have some talent. Just being on top means they have something other people don't.
I don't like rap or pop, but I still don't particularly mind people who like either genre. Well, unless your name is Greg Welsh or something...
