After having taken into consideration viewer and staff suggestions, we’ve narrowed the tournament contestants to a field of 32. Since everything from interpretation of SDN’s definition to worthiness of contestant is relative, the seeding is completely random.
We took the 32 most appropriate contestants and put their names on ping pong balls. As you can see, Kanye West and Nick Cannon’s balls came out first in their respective divisions.
With that said, we’ve got some very fun and interesting first-round matchups in the tube. Voting will take place via poll inset here on “Negro Please” as well as at my site and MySpace. Votes will be compiled from all locations.
Feel free to reason and lobby in the comments sections, but much like with the cricket politicians, only actual votes will have bearing on the advancement of your favorite Smart Dumb Nigga in Hip-Hop.

I would have to say its a tie between Superhead and Lil Wayne (for obvious reasons) with Nas a close 3rd. Nas my dude but when he speaks outside the booth its often hard to believe the same person was just in there.

My nigga!!! I don't know about you but I see the potential of a ladies night final showdown between Lauryn Hill and Superhead. And if not Super then it will be T.I and Lauryn Hill.

Oooook can I just say that Flavor Flav is a dumb nigga all around??
