Top 10? 20? 50?


Eazy seems to be one rapper that gets forgotten among the dead

BTW, anyone who does rank them "ie. top whatever).. how old are you?

I'm 23 but can't say I've listened to a Cube album before.

Cube is Top 10 all time and is cemented in that position.

cube would have to be top 10 just based off of his discography. the nwa albums, his first couple of solo's, and then westside connection. plus he was ghostwriting for eazy. eazy was cool...the thing that people never really mention is that he had a great eye for talent. he basically made nwa, bone thugs, and bg knoccout and dresta(from what i understand)
and every last one of those rappers has a classic/near classic in their catalog.
cube made me proud as hell to still be a rap fan when he released gangsta rap made me do it.
eazy is more seen as the gangsta and not a rapper anyway...funny enough my fav release by him is when he started writing for himself(str8 off tha streets)

Cube easily a great...Easy E not so much for his music ability but as a personality and historical figure with influence absolutely...Easy E and P diddy make that all around legend but wouldn't be off music alone type list

Eazy had Nwa on his label :patrice: thats not doin much business wise?

Above The Law and Kokane....they had sum classic albums

that B.G. Knocc Out and Gangsta Dresta album went hard

He had Doc on his label... dropped one of the greatest debuts ever

Michelle was a problem in the R&B world

JJ Fad... even tho they was one hit wonders

and cant forget the Black Eyed Peas... even tho they didnt blow back then Eazy did put them on

im saying Eazy signed Doc to his label

and Doc wrote his own verses and did alot of writing for Eazy and Dr Dre too... wut do u mean Nwa as a whole put that album together? :patrice:
album was wrote by Doc and produced by Dr Dre... featured one posse cut wit Nwa on it

Doc helped put Nwa albums together
