G-Unit (short for Guerrilla Unit[1]) is an American hip hop group originating from South Jamaica, Queens, New York, formed by longtime friends and East Coast rappers 50 Cent, Tony Yayo and Lloyd Banks.

The Diplomats, also popularly known as Dipset, are an American hip hop group founded in 1997 by Cam'ron and Jim Jones, in Harlem, New York City. The group was originally composed of members Cam'ron, Jim Jones and Freekey Zekey, all of whom grew up together in Harlem. In 1999, fellow Harlem-based rapper Juelz Santana was added to the group.

lol @ bul looking up google.

by that logic, death row is a group too.

obviously, im talking about traditional rap groups, when they actually existed. not this new adopted term for mixtape crews.

 

[Truth Hurts]

I kinda see what the OP is gunning towards by leaving out Dips and Gunit

because now you would have to add in MMG, Good Music, YMCMB, swishahouse

but doing the best he can. kinda wanna see how this plays out

but diplomats and g-unit have group albums that are actually group albums. those other labels just have compilations.

good point I got nothing then

 

[Wacky D]

but diplomats and g-unit have group albums that are actually group albums. those other labels just have compilations.

diplomatic immunity was made up of mostly ported mixtape tracks.

cam/juelz/jones arent even all on the same tracks together thru half that album. and alot of those songs are solos. theres even songs that dont feature any of them.

g-unit may have come off more traditional since they only had 3 people active at the time. honestly, i cant even remember too much of it. it was kind of meh, and it really doesnt get them far in the rankings anyway.

both of those were done off the back of state property anyway, which was clearly a compilation, yet they get categorized as a group as well nowadays.
