THIS IS THE 40/40 CLUB.

The 40/40 club is a baseball term for an elite group of players who have accumulated a total of 40 home runs and 40 stolen bases in a single season.

Becoming a member of the 40ñ40 club is an elusive achievement in modern American baseball, as players who possess the power to hit 40 home runs and the speed to steal 40 bases in a season are rare. Generally a player gifted with the strength to hit 40 will not have nearly the speed needed to steal 40 bases, and vice versa. This remains true even as statistical trends change in baseball

Last year, The 40/40 Club event was born as a celebration of the 40th birthday of hip hop's most foremost ambassador figure, Jay-z, for his 40th birthday on December 4th.

He, at the time, was on the eve of becoming the first ever RELEVANT and DOMINANT 40 year old hip hop figure in a youth driven and dominated culture. It was a critical achievement for hip hop, and something that I felt needed to be celebrated.

For this, the second edition of the 40/40 club, we take the concept
closer to its baseball roots and examine an elite group of MC's, whom, like their baseball counterparts capable of hitting with power, and stealing bases, are capable of incredible punchlines, great storytelling, incredible flow, wit, charm, and bravado.

We begin with an age old barbershop argument from the early 2000's referenced by Jay'z. Like him,

"Where I'm From, #*$*as will pull your card, and argue all day about WHO'S THE BEST MC, BIGGIE, JAY-Z OR NAS
