honestly scarface has never really been "hot" he's just been consistent throughout his whole career
stay putting out good music and because he doesn't have the big push people forget that he's top 5 of all time

Master P - 1995 - 2000 What a time to be in Louisiana :banderas:
Juvenile 1997-2001 What a time to be a young teen in Louisiana. I was a Hotboy fasho :blessed:


Juvenile had a very interesting peak. He sold 4 million records but never seemed to be a superstar. Not many unknown rappers sell 4 mil on their national debut. The only people I can think of is Nelly, Em, Big.

400 degreez has to be top 10 ever.

Royce da 5'9. He has never been really hot but I would say his prime was in the Bar Exam 2 days or Death is Certain. Actually, his hottest period may have been the formation of Slaughterhouse and his reuniting with DJ Premier .

Pac, Big, Hov, Ye, and Em prime love was :ohlawd: altho Big's death lead to more of a cysage.
Juve aint respected as I want him to be but he did 4 millie off a classic :manny:

UGK got perennially slept on but made up for it with IPA

Mystikal got hot after his prime :ld:
Same with Chamillionaire, who's pretty much the nikka that did "ridin dirty" to the masses ...they just dont know bout the Color Changin Lizard :wow:

Tip, Ross, Ja, X and Wayne all had ignant runs. Ross aint go plat but still.

C-murder was buried behind P, Silkk, Snoop, Mystikal, and Mia X but Down 4 My nikkas lives on at sporting events across the board :blessed:

Silkk the Shocker got 2 platinum plaques :yeshrug:



Lil Turk and Sheek Louch stay overshadowed, hi key rightfully so :wow: but i love em all the same

Outkast in 2000-2003. Pretty much outselling everybody not named Eminem. Had the perfect balance between the pop radio, clubs, and pure Hip-Hop lyricism.

Pac in 96...self explanatory

Nas..96-99 was easily his most commercially successful period but i didn't truly become a thorough fan until about 2002 so...
