Before we go any further, lets define the term "legend" and what is the criteria

[BusterBreeze]

Before we go any further, lets define the term "legend" and what is the criteria

1.When they debuted how did they change the culture

2. What are their classic albums

3. what imprint have they left in the game not just regionally but universally

4.who did they influence

simple as that if you cant answer any of those then you not a legend

When they first started making rap records the earliest rappers and rap groups might have only released a couple of 12" singles. But there's artifacts that prove their impact; flyers, tapes, video footage, etc.

Kurtis Blow, Melle Mel, Grandmaster Caz, Kool Moe Dee, Spoonie G, Funky 4+1, etc. are all legends but none of them have a classic album.

You'd sound stupid saying that Grandmaster Flash isn't a legend, but he doesn't have classic album.

you realize there's still 3 of the 4 for criteria again if you can't answer anything about those 4 requirements then they ain't legends period

Grandmaster Flash is a pioneer though.

This reminds me of that fresh prince episode where will and carlton are on the game show and carlton keep analyzing every answer

 

[DR. JEK]

Royce Street Hop album and Pryme album alone should get him the nod not to mention his chemistry with DJ Premier is ridiculous. You voters kill me. How you not a legend but got legend songs and albums? Only on the IC type shit again I guess.

 

[DR. JEK]

Has Royce ever had a hit song?

Talib at least had Get By

Do you gonna tell me "Boom" wasn't tight?

 

[BusterBreeze]

Has Royce ever had a hit song?

Boom is a great song

But i honestly dont remember when it 1st dropped. I came across the track years later while listening to a Detroit mix by Rude Jude on Shade45

Did it get mass appeal?

Or was it a hidden gem?
