Where do Migos rank as the GOAT black groups?

[Reno89]

Can we be honest for a second? Most of these groups that these cats are naming are nowhere near successful

If we are talking sales, influence, consistency and overall talent, here it is

Wu Tang Clan
NWA
Outkast
Public Enemy
De La Soul
The Diplomats/Dipset
The Fugees
Tribe Called Quest
Migos
Mobb Deep

The Migos been working non-stop pretty much since 2009-2010. They are definitely up there in the consistency and influence Department. Their flow has been stolen countless times. They know how to make hits. Stop being a hater and give those dudes their credit

 

[semicko82]

Top 10, they changed the game with their flow and if they split up they’d all still be superstars

 

[Buckeye Fever]

If we talkin' record sales and you don't mention Bone, get all the way the fukk outta here

 

[BlackAchilles]

Not even remotely close to the Isley Brothers or Earth Wind and Fire

 

[Larry Lambo]

Better than 2 Live Crew, Naughty by Nature, The Lox for sure.

Culture is better than a lot of these groups' best albums.

Also each rapper is supremely talented and could branch off solo and put in work.

2Live Crew invented a genre that dominated the club scene for 10 years, and were a household name. How many non rap fans even know who the Migos are?

The Lox are legends because of the combination of albums/features/mixtapes. How many classic songs have the Migos been on? 3-4. The Lox has been on 15-20 all time tracks.

At second look, Naughty is comparable to Migos in terms of being at the forefront of the game for a bit. It's hard to compare eras in terms of groups because there are no groups now, so you have to look at them lumped in with individual artists.

and they fought the Supreme Court and won. Imagine what hiphop would be now if they took the L back then. They get top groups status off that alone lol

 

[Lord-Yosh]

In today's culture their success is unmatched. There is no other group creating sounds like them or selling like them. However if were considering all time the talent of black bands from the 50's -90's is hard to match. They wrote, played, performed and played. But i think it would be unfair to do that to the migos because whose to say if they wouldn't have found they lane in another time period.
All time i cant rank em prolly in the 40s-60s. But hip hop there top 10 just off the fact they came out in 2014 and had most nikkaz sounding like them by 2016.
1. NWA.
2.Run DMC
3.Public Enemy/ 2Live crew
4. A tribe called quest.
5. Outkast.
6. Bone thugz
7. Dipset
8.G unit
9. Cash money/ hot boyz
10. Migos.

 

[badboys11]

migos the greatest most consistent rap group of this decade

 

[iamduval]

I don't know where they rank but what I do know is that they weren't that great to see live. It was low-key dead.

They are horrible live. Embarrassing
