Which Rapper had the GOAT 3 or 4 Year Run??

[Techniec]

I wouldn't include Pac and Big in this convo cause they both died during their run

fair enough

 

[H. Selassie]

respect to your Eazy avi but this was a mind boggling omission

Cube defines this thread and what it represents

this is the equivalent of "top rappers in 94" and not including Big or Nas

this is the equivalent of "top west coast anthems" and not including California love

I respect what you sayin but you can at least understand my rationale right?

Scarface is in my Top 5 and his career is Hall of Fame but I was thinking of runs where dudes were selling 5-10 Mill consecutively, killings shyt everywhere and his name just didn't pop up.

Then again, if I included Nas...Man my bad. Let me see if I can edit the poll..

50 cent had nikkas wearing bullet proof vest outside lol

@Techniec @Inspect Her Deck


Poll fixed.

 

[WaveGang]

Maybe Jay


when was that?

I ain't even a fan. But mid 90s method man was one of the biggest rappers. I ain't even an old head but I can remember Meth being huge.

"Y'all ain't got no love for Snoop Dogg?"

Chronic and Doggystyle in back to back years? That's like 2 straight Championships where you shut the competition out in the Final game.

@1-8-7-Skillz where you at fam?

Not to mention that he was also on Fire in 1994 killing all his guest appearances

 

[Danie84]

Pac, cuz you still feel the void his 3 yr run left, 2 Decades later

 

[H. Selassie]

Time to talk about the clear elephant in the room...


1999: SSLP 5 Million sold
2000: MMLP 10 Million sold
2001: D-12 2 Million sold
2002: Eminem Show 10 Million sold + 8 Mile soundtrack 5 Million sold + an Oscar

No love for Em Coli brehs?

 

[the cac mamba]

no mention of prodigy

 

[B-Mint94]

I'm biased since I grew up with him, but Lupe from 05-07 for me. He release those Fahrenheit mixtapes, Food & Liquor (both the Retail & Advanced) & The Cool during that time period. The lyricism he displayed during then was damn near untouchable.

 

[King Poetic]

Ice Cube.. no contest

 

[A Tribe Called Quest ™]

No T.I.?

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

It is without question

Tupac 1994-1996 is the greatest example of prolific and profound output that hip-hop has to offer

Thug Life: Volume 1
Me Against the World
All Eyez on Me
The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory

These are definitive classics, at least 3 of them are GOAT contenders.

If your answer is anything else you have an agenda based in some emotion you have associated with some rapper, time or place or you just lack proper perception

Real talk, tho.....When you drop MATW, AEOM, and Makaveli all within a year and a half , it's illogical to think different

And Cube from 1990-1992 released the following:

AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted
Kill at Will (EP)
Death Certificate
Guerillas in The Mist (w/Da Lench Mob)
The Predator

All albums with vast critical acclaim and also all his solo shyt went platinum and the group album went gold off the strength of them being part of Cube's team.

I'll give you AmeriKKKa's Most & Death Certificate

The rest of the list don't measure up.

Guerillas In The Mist was especially bunk
