Group- any collection or assemblage of persons or things
That is the definition of a group...according to the dictionary.
As we celebrate hip hop week, I am reminded that we've seen our share of great groups. I have always had a great deal of respect for hip hop duos/groups. They have helped mold and shape the hip hop culture. You gotta respect them even more. I imagine that it's hard to stand out as an MC when you're in a group. Sometimes your skills can be overlooked when you're in a group.
Over the years, we've seen some great groups...
THE ROOTS
SALT N PEPA
RUN DMC
EPMD
NWA
OUTKAST
WU TANG CLAN
DE LA SOUL
A TRIBE CALLED QUEST
Just to name a few!
But if I had to pick ONE group as the best of all time...I'd say...
And that's hard to say because the groups that I just mentioned are great groups. But when I measure their impact on the culture, lyrics, and album content. I gotta say PE.
What about you?
Who is the best hip hop group of all time?
