best DUO in hip hop history?

[OG Hack Wilson]

To me it's like you can't consider someone a duo if they're not actually recording and releasing music together.  So, Dr.Dre and Snoop Dog aren't a duo nor are 50 Cent and Game.   

A duo is a team.  They are the act.  They're a group.  Clipse, Outkast, & Dead Prez are duos.   

Hell to me Gang Starr is not a duo.  It's really just Guru with Dj Premier as the producer.  It's no different than Eminem with Dr.Dre handling the bulk of production.   They're not a duo, it's one MC and a producer.  If you want to talk best duo as in 1 producer & 1 mc then my answer would be different.

 

you can't punish Primo for choosing not to rap and lower the quality of his songs lol



now why PEte Rock stopped rapping and went to full time producing i don't know

[Triple OG Rapsodie]

Tip and Phife. They had the perfect chemistry and timing.

[rhythmalism]

Snoop Doggy Dogg & Dr. Dre

[Blood$]

as on official duo: OutKast
in terms of doing tracks together: Dr. Dre & Snoop

[Lucifuge]

it easy..Mobb

[Trip Dee]

I voted for Daz n Kurupt. I would put Pac with Big Stretch instead of Syke...

[Bananas]

I would never wanna start polarizing myself by having to choose.

[JMan]

Tip and Phife. They had the perfect chemistry and timing.

im glad someone said tribe called quest cos that exactly what i was thinking too.. but from the list its hands down gang starr for me.

I'm not punishing him.  He's a producer, not an MC.  He's not a duo.  His name holds weight like Dr.Dre but they're not MCs.

[The-Leak (aka) kingwell (bka) JULES]

OUTKAST.

[The Ultimate Pianist]

in terms of impact, Dre & Snoop or Dre & Em.

but Mobb Deep or Outkast are probably the best duo/groups.

Eric B. & Rakim too.

(pre-Curtis) 50 Cent and The Game anyone ?  please dont hate, i just wanted to share a duo i liked alot.

na, no hate; they dropped some dope shit together.

 my man keepin it real 

[Rebel]

Don't forget Onyx and BDP 

[Trip Dee]

or Chuck D & Flava Flav, or BG Knocc Out & Dresta, or Luniz... Oh, and how about Tha Eastsidaz (i'm not countin Snoop as a member)?

[the ghost]

Outkast, then Clipse.  I guess RUN DMC is not considered a duo cause of JMJ? 

[S.C. The Beast]

shiiit, ill probobly get hated but i like cnn and jada & p. although kurupt and quik are dope on some west coast shit.
