Anyway, N.W.A., Mobb Deep, Bone Thugs N Harmony, Cypress Hill, Goodie Mob, Three 6 Mafia (IMO).

That's some of the best you left out.

I'm from Cali. And it still has to be the Wu as far as the greatest, man. N.W.A had some genre shaking stuff, but the Wu's body of work is just to great to be denied.

I was just ****in around, i wasnt actually mad about this :lol1:

I give you credit for having the right year where mobb deep....or i should say prodigys lyrical complexity noticeably declined. HNIC was the last time he was on top of his game, and even then he wasnt what he was on hell on earth. Hey luv is a terrible song but infamy was still a good cd...havoc never fell off. His beats have been dope as **** since the demo tape. But overall i think mobb deep is definitely top 10 all time. 3 Straight classics, arguably 4 if you count hnic.

I agree that bone thugs, 3 6 mafia and cypress hill dont belong on the list :lol1:

Group albums are what I count.

Wus albums as a group aren't touching PEs.

If you want to include all the solo albums yea, but the key word is "group".

wests nwa at least deserves to be their and so does easts mobb deep and souths ghetto boys

a bad list because you put in the groups you listen to and not the deserving groups


you should be nonbiased, im from the west and like the westside connection but i wont rank them in the greatest group poll, your poll needs to be redone, looked over

More importantly who would you replace on the list with N.W.A.??

Cypress Hill should not be on the list IMO, good to listen to, entertaining. But one of the Greatest Hip Hop groups of all time? No way.

Cypress Hill is easily one of the greatest Hiphop groups of all time.
