Billboard is byke - Top 50 Rap Groups, update: Top 10 is in

[JustCKing]

8ball & MJG should be ranked near wherever UGK is ranked. So either 8ball and MJG is ridiculously high or UGK ain't making the list which would be a travesty. Both should be top 20 IMO.

They are going to put UGK in the Top 20. I also have a feeling they are going to have the Clipse in the Top 10.

UGK gets the mainstream stimulus. having songs with jay and outkast gave them cac exposure that will go a long way on a list like this

Ball and G are in my personal Top 20 list.

And for what they did as a COLLECTIVE....Hiero should be higher.

Since they're counting duos as groups, let's do some hypothesizing.

Who do yall think will be their top five? Not even the ORDER, just who do you think makes it?

I'm thinking four are a shoe-in:
Run DMC
NWA
Wu-Tang
Public Enemy

.....then for the fifth, take your pick from either:

OutKast
Mobb Deep
ATCQ
EPMD

They might even throw Migos in there, too...which I could see, but I would personally have then outside my Top 10-15.

I do wonder how much era is gonna be used against migos

Top 5 some version of ATCQ, kast, run dmc, wu tang, PE, nwa - that 5 spot will be a toss up between nwa and PE

migos is a personal top 10, but for this list, I think they’re def top 20, and probably in the 10-15 spot. Bone, de La soul, epmd, mobb deep, beastie boys round out the top 10/11

Being modern wasn’t a knock on their other list, they definitely represented modern artists.

Good list, I forgot about Bone, De LA and the Beasties....Beasties might be higher just because it's Billboard.

Yea, wouldn’t be surprised if they’re slipped into the top 5

Those modern solo artists on the previous list had/have more competition than migos has with groups

They were the dominant rap group of their era in an era where groups were mostly irrelevant in the mainstream

Ok, that’s exactly why migos will be high. They were successful, influential, talented, unique, and brought back groups when no one else was doing it. They will get their due respect.

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

And nikkas got the nerve to complain about the city girls

they dont need to be on this list, the city girls aren't even the most important part of their own songs. if you're going to give them the sympathy mention, they're firmly at 50

They shouldn’t be on this list, neither should Slum Village

And they may end up being the last superstar rap group we ever see
