This is just my opinion. I’d have Wu-Tang 1A, Tribe 1B. I know alot of people will disagree. I got alot of friends that can’t stand either one. But I know alot of people that fill just like me. I guess I would go Wu because of the solo release. Man y’all hurry up with that Control System, R.A.P. Music and Cancer For Cure reviews.
This is a really hard question, because there are so many great hip hop groups ! But if I had to break it down to 5 groups, I would say in no particular order :
Black Hippy, even if they’re a really recent group, I can’t leave them out of my top 5. I know a lot of people would not agree with me, but I personally love the group, I never heard a bad song from any of the 4 members and when they do a song together, it’s just so crazy, I can see them makin’ a huge impact in hip hop in the next 5 years, in 10 years, they’ll be legends, I just have that feeling.
Wu-Tang Clan, this is an easy choice, you said it all in the video, there’s nothing else to say about them.
N.W.A., for the impact of their music, they were so ruthless, so agressive, and when you look at each member, they also had a very successful solo career (except for MC Ren, but in my opinion, he’s underrated, he was really dope).
OutKast, they are so original, one of my favorite groups of all tie without a doubt. I really think Big Boi is way too much underrated, he’s even better than Andre 3000 in my opinion. Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son Of Chico Dusty was amazing, one of my favorite albums of all time actually.
The Roots, I’m really disappointed you didn’t talk about them and you talked about 2 Live Crew, their music is just amazing, they never put out a bad or average album, they have so many great albums, they should have least been mentioned in this webisode (if you did mention them, I’m really sorry, maybe I wasn’t payin’ enough attention).
glad you guys are back up again.
outkast, wu tang, heltah skeltah, the roots and mobb deep.
Wu, the roots, co flow
