[Each week, SOHH asks two entertainment personalities to name their Top 5 rappers of all-time. To make things tricky, we've created a "Hall of Fame" of emcees (see right) who are universally respected and therefore may not be mentioned. After Toya Carter unleashed her picks earlier this week, late author Iceberg Slim's daughter Misty Beck dishes out her fave five.]

Digital Underground. I cannot remember all of their names but it was the main guy that I really liked. I used to know his actual name, he was the lead singer in the group. It’s the guy who sang “Humpty Hump.” I think his name is Shock G [a.k.a. Humpty Hump]. He was my favorite from Digital Underground.
-
Ice Cube. I like everything he did. I also love him as an actor too. He’s a cool person and I just like his personality.
-
Too Short. I really liked how raw Too Short was. He’s someone I started liking him when I was young and he’s just one of my favorites.
-
50 Cent. Sometimes 50 Cent does the dance-club thing and he’s hot. I really like him and he’s also doing the acting thing as well. I love his songs and pretty much everything he’s doing.
-
Snoop Dogg. The reason I named Snoop Dogg is because he’s pretty laid back. He’s so cool and all of his music is like party, feel good music. That’s why I like Snoop.
