Obviously some of these guys wouldn't make sense on certain rosters, but yeah..

All of them were drafted IIRC except Lil B in the last BAL, most wanted to pick different people.

I don't think people have heard half of my label's catalogue so I don't expect to win any rankings.

Really? I don't even like some of the people I chose tho lol... I figured we were looking to accomplish a bunch of different stuff with the label we built.

I went for a combo of fav artists, fit, versatility, variety, sales, appeal to east, west, south, and different ethnicities (Em/Pun), lyrical ability, and dudes to battle.

well yeah, that's what i was doing as well
but it all depends on everyone's perspectives. it's hard to judge music labels so you just gotta pick on who u think is the best overall.
you were in my top 2

yeah, and more rounds too
i tried to make the best out of every pick in the last build a label, i thought i came out as top IMO
couldn't find another label that had talent/style in every way. plus they all fit in what i was trying to build. it sucks we couldn't get any results -_-

My Rankings:
Spree
Illmatic
3tohead
Slicin
Ctorres
Mecca
Hezi
Fury
Phish
Greenie

Obviously it's based on personal taste, so these rankings are therefore useless. :lol: At least I got my rankings in. Last time around at least we had some very loose guidelines on what we were judging, this team people just did the draft for the sake of drafting.
