Dr. Dre is my favorite artist of all time. Just based of his two classics The Chronic and 2001.

then comes Cube at a close second.

It's too hard to pick, these guys were the defenition of supergroup! Everyone of them were multi-platinum material and they all did go multi-platinum at one point in their careers (I'm not so sure about Ren though, even though he should have because the people loved him in NWA).

I would say Dre is the overall best. He has some of the greatest rap songs ever, the best beats, and 2 MAD classic discs. His time in NWA was overshadowed by the others, but i feel that he got more exposure after Cube left. Still, he's definitely my favorite from NWA.

After that, it's so hard to pick from Eazy, Cube & Ren, but if i had to i would put them like this: Cube, Eazy, Ren. Cube has classics, crazy flow and is just impossible not to like. Eazy was crazy on the mic, but i think that he started to fall off after NWA. The It's On album was sick, but his later stuff, before he died, was just not on point (in terms of Eazy that is, it kills most the shit out there). Then i would pick Ren. Not that he was bad by ANY means, it's just that the other guys seemed to have the better shit. Still, Ren was a great rapper and had a SICK flow.

If i had to pick the best of the 4 while they were currently in NWA, it'd be Ren, Cube, Eazy, Dre. Ren shined so much on both discs and was the meaning of an N.W.A. Cube was great on SOC, and it sucked to see him go, but what would have happened if he stayed? Eazy was sick and was pretty much the face of the group, and Dre was pretty nice, while not being put into the spotlight too much.

This is why i think N.W.A was the greatest group of musicians that we'll ever see. Better than the clan, better than the hill, better than them all. Each of the members of N.W.A were a jem and to see them all together like that still amazes me to this day.
