1999 Grammy Nominees: Rap is a pretty good survey of some of the year's better hip-hop singles, running the gamut through pop, hardcore, and alternative rap offerings. Highlights are difficult to single out due to the consistency of the material, which is supplied by Lauryn Hill, Wyclef Jean, Pras Michel, the Beastie Boys, Busta Rhymes, A Tribe Called Quest, OutKast, Will Smith, Big Punisher, and more. ~ Steve Huey, Rovi
