About.com, the web’s second post popular hub for truthy information, has compiled a list of their ten most underrated rappers. While this isn't the list I would’ve put together, any good “Top Ten” list about music is infinitely debatable and will lead to a fist-fight under the right set of circumstances. I’ve never met Henry Adaso and he might be bigger than me so I won’t challenge him to a duel for leaving Ludacris and Jadakiss* off the list. Disagreements aside, he does shine light on some particularly underappreciated lyricists like Jean Grae and Royce da 5’9 in particular. AZ at number one? Well played. [About.com]

No way can Luda be underrated. If anything he's overrated. The guy's sold a gazillion records. I think it's hard to be underrated when you're considered one of the biggest stars in hip-hop.
I think it's a solid list.
