I want to begin a series of polls on this. Everyone gets to nominate five artists, I'm going to start a list (of really obvious ones.)

Also we need to have a discussion on how certain artists should be organized...like should we go MF Doom and have that encompass everything he's done, or nominate individual projects, same goes for Del (should we just attribute Deltron 3030 to him alone?) And then there's the whole Wu-Tang Clan thing.

List of Really Obvious Ones:
Public Enemy
NWA
A Tribe Called Quest
Wu-Tang Clan
The Roots
De La Soul
2Pac
Nas
Notorious BIG
Run DMC
Jay-Z
Eric B. & Rakim
Outkast

? WUT DO WE DO HERE
Kool Keith
Ghostface Killah
MF Doom
Del Tha Funkee Homosapien
Dr. Dre


I'm kind of in a weird rambly mood sorry if I'm not making much sense with this. Ask questions!

My opinion on what we should do with the aforementioned problem (here on out referred to as "The Wu-Tang Crisis) is when the artist has a buttload of one-album (to two album) side projects, we should refer to them all under one blanket name, but when the artist just has like two major projects that are easily separable (such as Dr. Dre and NWA) we should separate them. I think that's what makes the most sense. What makes the most sense to you dudes?

The greatest of the greats in my opinion. He had a crazy unique flow and sick delivery.
Most definitely one of my favorite artists of all time, and I know he influenced
a whole lot of other dope emcees. Big ups to the entire D.I.T.C. crew!

In the old school category I'd have to put Masta Ace, Tha Alkaholiks,
The Beatnuts, Showbiz & AG, The Arsonists, Heltah Skeltah and Nas first in line.

Now for my favorite era [late 90's to present] the list could be infinite
(so could the old school one), but to mention some; The Demigodz, Non Phixion,
Jedi Mind Tricks/Army of the Pharaohs, LA COKA NOSTRA, Action Bronson,
Dilated Peoples and Brother Ali.

Also; ****ing legit thread, lots of Hip Hop heads with kickass taste!

Peace
