Admittedly, part of why you guys like the music you like (I've seen your suggestions in Download of the Day) is because it isn't popular with the mainstream.

Absolutely wrong. I hate the kids who love a band until they become popular and then turn on them because suddenly everyone else likes them.
Kanye West is a great artist, he's on the list. Usher, Lil Jon, Ludacris, these are not good artists.
But look at the tracks they selected from each.
Jay-Z (I love Jay-z) - 99 Problems, this could be one of the worst tracks by him ever, it is equivalent to dog shit.
Eminem (one of the greatest rappers ever) - Lose yourself, I cant explain how much dog shit this song is, it makes 99 problems look like a la bamba burrito when you are drunk
Snoop Dogg (One of the few artists that has actually gotten worse, rather than being disliked solely for his popularity) - Drop it like its hot, not only is this a slap in the face to the old Hot Boyz (whose version was WAY better), but this song is dog shit, just like the others.
Terror Squad - Lean Back, this track is dogshit, but it got played a lot, and it has Fat Joe in it (AKA a bad rapper who gets on MTV)
Edit:
Look at the albums that got nominated.
To the 5 boroughs - The beastie boys are WASHED UP, they used to be pioneers even though they were never really good, but now they suck.
The Black Album - Not terrible, probobly deserves to be a selection
LL COOL J? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?
Suit- Nelly is Dogshit, and he's hardly a rapper anymore, at least not like they used to be.
The College Dropout - The clear winner.
Look at some of the albums they forgot that clearly should be options.
Eminem - Encore
Fabolus - Real Talk
Young Buck - Straight Outta Cashville
Shyne - Godfather Burried Alive
These should be on the list, not the fucking beastie boys, Nelly, or LL Cool J.
