Teflon Don had a lot of features on it....I think he only had one song just solo...but it had some hits. I think he had 4 songs as singles from that album and I liked them all....BMF, Aston Martin Music, the song with Gucci and its another one I can't remember off hand.
MC Hammer if you're referring to the Gucci track, but he did had a lot of features on some all star shyt.

Kool G rap

Road to Riches 1989 (Classic)
Wanted: Dead or Alive 1990 (A more advanced classic)
Live and Let Die 1992 (CLASSIC)
4,5,6 1995 (Incredible album)
Root of evil 1998 (Incredible album)

G rap had a 5 album run (arguably 6 if you count the The Giancana Story, which was decent but didn't stack up to previous 5) lasting 10 years... Every album was either Incredible or Classic in that time.

KRS ONE

Criminal Minded 1987
By All Means Necessary 1988
Ghetto Music: The Blueprint of Hip Hop 1989
Edutainment 1990
Return of the Boom Bap 1993
KRS-One 1995
I Got Next 1997
and etc...

Thats a 10+ year run with 7 albums.

French montana

Eminem. Yeah he's dope but when he first came out I thought he would fade and just be a 1 album type of dude.

I know on the internet it's cool to say we saw everything coming. We predicted every demise and saw everyone's potential. But let's be real for a moment. Whose run lasted longer than you thought? Let's give some props to hip-hop artists for their grind.
:salute:

Gotta :salute: French Montana. I never saw this dude being this popular for this long. Even with the NY market

Gotta :salute: Kid Cudi. I can't get through any of his projects but his support base is respectable. All threads on here about the guy seem to do solid numbers.
:yeshrug: is French Montana really popular, dude has like a hit song a year featuring various people :skip:
