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

As it was mentioned earlier, Dre and Snoop are hot but they didnt release much together. Outkast is tight as hell. but they ain't in the list, so DRE and Snoop it is !!

It's still Dre day n....

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

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

Eric B. & Rakim too. 8)

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

na, no hate; they dropped some dope shit together. 8)

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.

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.

opinions can be wrong.

one can have an opinion the earth was only created in 7 days and that would be wrong.

that's getting their facts wrong; it's not opinion anymore.

the person clearly thinks that Tupac's greatness is enough to carry that duo to make them the best. ;)

people say Wayne is the best rapper alive, i don't agree with it, neither do you, but that isn't a wrong opinion.

how do you judge music to determine what's better than something else? it's 100% opinion; yet people on this board are always right about everything, so i may stand corrected. ::)

Post by: Makaveli's Food & Liquor on November 30, 2009, 07:21:53 PM
Im gonna say Mobb Deep simply because The Infamous is probably my favourite album of all time and despite Prodigy falling the fuck off they've been quite consistent over the years

*plus i don't consider Dre/Snoop a duo
