I haven't heard half of those "hits", so I guess they should expound what they consider a hit to be. Granted, I haven't actively sought out any of the radio/"MTV" tracks in the late 90s or 2000s. As for the older ones, most of those were hits in hip-hop circles.
And, according to these fools, Everlast jumped off the face of the planet. They say he got out of hip-hop, but fail to mention that he's been back for a minute now.
