Dope But Relatively Unknown Rappers From the 90's

Let's put them here...

these rappers definitely had the talent but didnt blow.

I will start with Barsha. He was featured on Positive K's "Impulse on Three" He ended up getting his own album, which was dope lyrically...but he just didnt have the push.

Erule

Thought for sure this guy had next. This was a underground hit but he never advanced despite incredible skills.

Ok, CJ Mac is more popular, but mad underrated. Definitely had potential to be a big star...thought this single had them on their way

My cousins group Posse NFX who was down with what was called the Gangstarr Posse. DJ Primer recently gave them an acknowledgment in an interview.

He's the lead rapper in this video and he still raps going by the name Sandro Castro. This video was directed by an unknown Hype Williams.
