WU TANG CLAN IS THE GREATEST RAP GROUP OF ALL TIME.
- Thread starter Billy Ocean
- Start date
Personally - Mobb Deep.
Realistically - probably Wu.
Dre and Cube are hard to argue against though...
Outkast is up there - but with at most 3 classic albums, I put them a rung below Wu and NWA.

Hiero have zero hardware. Unless you count Del's Gorillaz shyt.
If we're counting Hiero can we count the Juice Crew?

I'm pretty much the same as you. Though to be honest I only think The Infamous and Hell On Earth are as good as any Wu group or solo album. Wu has more classics. But then again, they are a bigger group than Mobb, so that isn't really taking away from Mobb Deep imo.

bumper stickers? the only people i know with bumper stickers are retirees, rednecks, and soccer moms.
i still take outkast's group album material over wu's group album material. i have a problem classifying wu, while they came out as a group their history and legacy still more closely resembles a family. even on 36 chambers youre talking less than half the members on at least half the songs. thats why i never understood the 8 emcee angle as such a huge advantage over groups that have every member contribute to nearly every song.
at the same time that doesnt take away from the quality of 36 chambers.

NWA,Ice Cube solo and Dre solos possess non-single album cuts that are as big as wu-tang's top singles.
Without question this is a true statement.

What the hell does "hardware" mean? I'm talking about biggest logos in hip hop and Hiero has Wu beat..
But I guess Wu does have more hard ware..rza is sponsored by Roland I think and RZAs got enough money to buy all the hardware he wants..

No way the Hiero logo has invaded American popular culture as much as the Wu logo. I have no idea how we could objectively measure logo impact - but I'm sure you would agree that Wu Wear greatly outsold Hiero T shirts.

It's true..Hiero is the most recognized symbol in hip hop..they took that logo and marketed it with t shirts..have you been in their online store? They even have hella exclusive clothing stores selling their products..
When's the last time someone was wearing Wu wear? 1999?

Wu still has gear. They have a company they collaborate with now. They have an abundance of gear. I bought a Wu shirt last year. The one that said Lo Goose.
