[Inno]

[Zen]

Noones mentioned Outkast? Really? Andre 3000 one's of the best rappers alive. But Public Enemy is the goat. Period.

[Split]

NYConfidential >>>


Outkast is nice not top 5

[Nigma]

Anyone bump AOTP?

[Split]

Isn't that like Demigodz but bigger?

[Nigma]

It's sort of a merge of Demigodz, Jedi Mind Tricks, Outerspace, and a few other dope rappers. If you youtubed Army of the Pharaohs you'd have a difficult time finding a bad song

[Split]

Beyond is dope I think he runs with them. Dynospectrum is cool too.

[Sharp]

Digable Planets deserves a mention

[Geno]

Slaughterhouse. Easy

[Nigma]

I hope Slaughterhouse continues to accommodate their original fans like they did with the mixtape of raw lyrics they released just before their album. On The House was fucking legit

[Inno]

Anyone bump AOTP?

[God Of War]

Celph is in my top 5. I've loved his lyrics and ridiculous wordplay for mad years. Honestly Chino XL da god though. I respect anyone who fucks with Chino

[Fig]

outcast is beasts

wu tang was never that great to me

and outkast was always meh as fuck

luda the king of the south fuck outkast rofl

[Split]

reasons I'm not a fan of Slaughterhouse
-all of their members except Royce

[Fig]

I just dont like that he went out of his way to give a big fuck to those two groups. It really hurt my feelings.

If he wants slaughterhouse on the list, then whatever.

Damn, Crooked been dope for a looooong ass time. Budden grown on me lately too, some deep lyrics tbh. Joel on the other hand, straight filler, but every group needs someone like him lol.

[Fig]

Split Crooked is actually dope tbh, check out this freestyle @ 4:00

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGTnzVHOqwk

[Split]

crooked I= Ice Cube and Joe Budden used an auctioneer as a foster mother


theres just nothing remarkable about him. i hate his punchlines

[Nigma]

Bridge or a tunnel, give a fuck how I come across

Took a rock and a hard place, made the best orgy

Somebody recommend good crooked I projects

slaughterhouse

[super pimp trillionaire]

Fuck outkast?
BLASPHEMY!

[Strikta]

Geto Boys.

[ill nik-A]

No EPMD in here
No Brandnubian?

Fucks wrong with y'all young bucks

[Strikta]

The word group wasn't plural in the thread title, so I didn't put more than 1.

Geto Boys is the best rap group ever, so...

Everything else is kinda irrelevant.

[ill nik-A]

GB was dope but not goat

Sorry Strikt

[Just C]

Epmd
Wu
Dilated Peoples
Alkoholiks
Luniz
Jurrasic 5
Outkast

[super pimp trillionaire]

Best and any are not synonyms.
Wu niggas
If not wu, run dmc
There was no other group that made such an impact worldwide. Wu is still making music and both groups changed hip hop forever.

That's so ignorant for u to say... BDP? Eric b n rakim? PE? NWA?

Ok dudely

[Allen Knight]

^^^this & Mobb Deep....come on yah'll

[Geno]

Smutt peddlers

Pac -outlaws

[Chyeahhh!!!]

My personal favs epmd mop mobb deep lox collaborative supergroups like slaughterhouse dont really count imo but they consist of top.spit for.spatters

[PancakeBrah]

OutKast is the correct answer.

[Plot]

DaFuq?

RUN DMC
then
PE
then
Cypress, NWA, WuTang, The Beasties
...
The SugarHill Gang tho, Whitelines!

[super pimp trillionaire]

Whatchu mean nik? Rofs jansport too tight?
It took bdp and pe to change the mood in hiphop.
Wutang said dont forget the east and slowed dres roll hardbody. The contracts they negotiated in a hostile and experienced industry were unheard of and still are. Largest longest running group? Yes.
Rundmc was the first new school group and ushered in a new era of hard and accessible beats and deliveries while making crossover music that was legit. EVERYONE IS STILL TRYING TO FOLLOW THESE TWO MODELS
Remember thrd says best, not favorite, and all time...
opinion held even if not defended.
Peace

White, sliced bread completely changed the bread game, they still making sliced white bread. Is it the best bread of all time? Fuck. No. Sourdough, motherfucking sourdough.

[trap.]

Original MHz lineup.

Which was Copywrite, Tage, Jakki da Motamouth, Camu Tao, DJ Prizm and RJD2.

[super pimp trillionaire]

Raisin might have something to say about that and honestly I'm pretty sure sourdough predates white, Tbh.. Good point, but remember without the trunk we have no branches.
RUN

[uh-oh]

mobb deep
wutang
mop
outkast

and classic DIPSET NIGGA

[Nigma]

What about....................


D12

[Geno]

Blackstar
The beatnuts
Dead prez
Jmt
Battle axe warriors
Mhz crew

[Geno]

ah yes... and lest we forget -the rugged, Capone n Noreaga! You fucks

[God Of War]

NAQ

beastie boys was signed to the same label, same erything and did just as much as run dmc a imo and also i think nwa may of changed the game alot more then run dmc.

[super pimp trillionaire]

True and debateable and quite possibly...
BUTT
NWA killed pac and biggie, and mad lil niggas all over the country... Kinda...
Who did Run kill?
Beasties were, and up until what a year ago? Were super classic from the paper to the disc... But they did not achieve run dmc status. Not even wu status...

[Split]

Blackstar

cmon man

i dont think anyone was looking for 2man groups

[Inno]

Onyx

Helta skelta

Dead prez

[God Of War]

lmao wow at them not achieving wu status....beastie boys helped change the game....remember without them u probably wouldnt have dudes like eminem....lmfao@nwa killed pac n biggie. without nwa there may not of been a pac n big to kill

[super pimp trillionaire]

Exactly. Except wrong. Beasties < wu.
Peace

[Geno]

Pac molded em. Young em sounds like white pac.
Without pac -no em. At least not the em we know.. probably an altered version.

[bleak]

1. NWA
2. ATCQ
3. Wu tang
4. The roots
5. Pro era

Honorably mention to geto boys and the fugees

cosign, except steez is dead and he was hella nice.

[Sn00p]

I dunno if it's just me, but I always thought Young Money had a dope line up.

[Inno]

Sger hill gang, you faggots

[Chyeahhh!!!]

Dam.forgot about CNN the war report still.goes thump for.thump on the whip prolly one of my favorite intros to an album. Blast that Shit and.cruise lol

[Geno]

cmon man

i dont think anyone was looking for 2man groups

Really?
Why so many outkast mentions.
And mobb deep mentions.. though they may have been many.. on wax they were two
Eric b and rakim was mentioned and many other two man crews.

My black star refference stands. As well as my CNN.
Nah
Nanny
Boo
Boo

[Split]

I think Outkast, Blackstar, Blackalicious, Atmosphere Eric B & Rakim etc are dope, but I don't think they have the same impact as bigger crews.

[Geno]

That maybe true @ split.
But at the same time. I feel like large crews such as aotp get fucking annoying, espescially when only a couple cats are nice imo.. I start to skip tracks hella frequently cause I only wanna hear one or two verses out of six on a track. Namean? So cats like blackstar -who are equally dope and complimentary of each other ( talib and mos.) Hold a lot more weight in the catergory of dopeness tbh. I would bump the blackstar album way heavier to this day over any aotp collabo -easy

[ill nik-A]

Roflz some of the beat groups were 2 men group

I thought there wasn't a limit a long as it was a group

Slow ass niggaz

I question y'all hip hop and yes beastie boys did more

[~RustyGunZ~]

uh-oh da god speaking more truth than anyone here

[Anonymous]

So are we all gonna act like Rhyme Asylum isn't 100 times better than everyone listed so far.

[Strikta]

WHO?

This thread is truly separating the men from the boys.

There's like 3-4 grown men here apparently.

[Fart]

Atmos/DPD
E&A
Slaughterhouse
ATCQ

[Malachi]

lol

[Inno]

i say again

PE
NWA
WU

chronological order faggots.

[God Of War]

lmao i wouldnt say pac was more of an influence on early em, early em was the infinite album and was way away from pac. plus eminem said he was crazy influenced by beastie boys. just cuz em did shock rap doesnt mean he was influenced by pac. i can see how he influenced him a little but at eminems age n shit theres no way he wasnt influenced more by the beasties,run dmc,'s ll cool j's n shit

[Strikta]

My rhyming skills got you climbing hills
I travel through your mind into your spine like siren drills
I'm sliming grills of roaches, with sprayed n disinfectant
Twistin necks of rappers til their spinal column disconnects
We disinfect then check the monologue, turn your system up
Twist em' up, and indulge in the marijuana smoke

When that nigga said that shit I flipped my fuckin lid first time hearing it.

[Malachi]

yeah infinite was dope shit

[Inno]

when im on the mic...im like a dyke, cant no nigga fuck with this.

infinite is my fav em album..everything after that is a gimmick..cept Rock Bottom.

[Anonymous]

I don't think you can count Atmosphere or E&A, because they are dj & rapper groups.

But the fact is. Rhyme Asylum is far better than any group named.

Unusual suspects come in at a close second.

[Angkor]

Fugees, Boot Camp, Roots

[Maximus]

The firm

[Wise Wiggles]

Lemme just throw some that haven't been mentioned yet out there..

Clipse is dope af.

Good call, Wise.

[super pimp trillionaire]

Yes. Clipse with they two studio albums and one twelve stop tour and what, eight years in the game? ...are the best rap group ever.

[Sn00p]
