Is LL Cool J the only rapper to become successful without riding another nikkas wave?

:patrice:nas my nikka but lets not throw his murder inc era under the rug:heh:

He came up in the game on the solo tip. I think thats what the op is referring to:ohhh: And there was no murder inc NaS era:pachaha: He did one song with them and nobody from the inc was ever on any of his albums. He never even signed with them:dead:

Lol @ Nas having Murder Inc, at least say Large Pro

:dead: Nelly had the Lunatics

If you're gonna count labels against other rappers then u have to count Def Jm against LL. Or IMO you calf say because he was with Russell and everyone knew Russel was Run's brother then LL kind of rode Run DMCs wave, not to mention he was in Krush Groove playing himself. They're stronger than some
Of the ties you have up there
