Best hip-hop duo of all time?

#1

Post by Habib »

Hey, who do y'all think is the best hip-hop duo of all time? I mean in terms of making good music and sounding good together, just everything in general.
I personally go with Dre and Snoop because they made really good music, and most of the stuff they did together all the time are all classics, they were also well produced. What do you guys think?

You kill me w/the inclusion of Dre in all things hip hop, LoL...The only exclusive album Dre produced for Snoop was Doggystyle, and he didn't do more extensive work until Topp Dogg, which was Snoop's best since Doggystyle...Your criteria for greatest of all time is confusing, cause Dre and Snoop are the only ones on the list that aren't really a duo.Mobb Deep, Eric B. and Rakim, shit they did great things as a group...

And you can't talk classics without mentioning Eric B and Rakim, crazy classics under them belts...

As far as producer rapper relationships go, shit, what about Gangstar..?

Hmmm...Outkast is my favorite now, but of all time..? I'd have to think about that...And if we doing one time duos, Method Man and Redman do great things whenever they on the track together, Blackout was my shit...Shit dude, you could have even said The Doggpound, w/Kurupt and Daz...

Haha yeah you are right sir. But those people didn't really do well in the music industry, I just put up the best one's as I wanted only 4 options. Method Man and Redman off the Blackout album, the only song that was good is "Da Rockwilder", what else?
OutKast are always incredible, and Eric. B and Rakim are really good too. For Mobb Deep, they also have good potentials, but their potential always fluctuated and as a result, they didn't consistently put up good work. Since "The Infamous" album, Prodigy sucked plainly.
Shit, but OutKast is really amazing, just that they aren't "of all time", so I just gave it to Dre & Snoop, they have been doing stuff together for a loooooong time, and with really really good production.

Was it Dre who produced "Tha Doggfather" too?

Lol......I agree with ayhja....you really do kill me with you including Dre in EVERY SINGLE POST you make. It amazes me how much you love that guy. If he really speaks to you like that, that's great, but you got to think a little more logically when you want to toss "GOAT" around like that. I LOVE Tech N9ne....dude got some amazing shit in my opinion....but I'm not gonna say he's the greatest of all time. It's okay to have personal favorites....but you really have to stop throwing Dre's name around like he's the best person to ever touch a mic....or produce......or be in a duo.





Back on Topic. The only duo I've heard a lot of stuff from is OutKast...and they're pretty hot most of the time. Snoop and Dre I don't consider a duo....but they didn't leave too much of an impression on me.

I'd have to think about this 'cause I know I'm forgetting some of them.
Some more good duo's Eightball & MJG, Pete Rock n CL Smooth, Fresh Prince & DJ Jazzy Jeff...

LG, fuck off, this post isn't for your voting. Jeez, even Ayhja who is much older spoke niceer than you are, who the fuck you think you are?
Here you come again telling ME to speak logically? What's so illogical about what I have said? Dre and Snooop back then were duo's, id a lot of things together, so what do you mean?
If I t hrow Dre's name, so what? You're just a young chap like me, and you are trying to speak to me w/ authority? Lay off man...
Even the owner of the site who has got right to speak to me like that didn't, so fuck off...

Is this dude fucking serious? I mean really...... Here I am trying to be nice to this idiot...and he continues this string of bullshit and insults for no reason.

LG, fuck off, this post isn't for your voting.
You posted a poll, but a valued and long time member of this forum can't vote on it? Dude...you're full of shit. I'm one of the only people on here who's music choice consists almost solely of hip hop and r&b....but I'm not allowed to vote? Why? Because I don't agree with you? That's most likely it.

Jeez, even Ayhja who is much older spoke niceer than you are, who the fuck you think you are?

Well...I can't respond to something that I can't understand. Learn to speak the language better before you try and string an idiotic sentence together that's meant to make me feel bad, because all it does is make you look that way.


If I t hrow Dre's name, so what? You're just a young chap like me, and you are trying to speak to me w/ authority? Lay off man...

When are you going to learn that age has nothing to do with everything. Becase Ayhja is older than us doesn't mean he's always right, and just because I'm not 10 years older tahn you doesn't mean you can't learn from what I'm telling you. Here I am again trying to be nice to you, but you've yet to prove you deserve it. All you do is run your mouth and yell out insults at people because they disagree with your opinion. Get some sense and grow up dude...
