The sexiest men in hip hop (reloaded)

On a lazy Friday night, browsing the internet with Afromag's newly appointed beauty editor Helen, we came across a slide show of hip hop's sexiest men on Hip Hop Wired. Thinking this would be our weekend eye candy, we discovered, to our greatest shock, pictures of Busta Rhymes, LL Cool J and.......... Jay Z! Really? We had to put things right. Being sexy is not about trying too hard, that's why the likes of 50 Cent and Nelly should not come near this ranking. So here's Afromag's official top 10 ranking of hip hop's sexiest men. Tell us if we forgot anyone.

10.Ludacris - for the craziness

9.Bow Wow - sorry but he's cute (and we're not judging his sound)

8.Layzie Bone - wrongfully overlooked

7.DMX - Just raw

6.Pharrell Williams - for the swag

5.Tupac - do we need to explain?

4.Warren G - The guy next door (we wish!)

3.NAS - The Mind

2.Common - The Body

1.Method Man - l'Homme Fort
