Redman & Lady of Rage. Niggaz don't understand how nasty Rage was. The album she dropped w/ Dj Premier was the best album lyrically from any female EVER. Redman introduced me to east coast hiphop at an early age. As a Texas nigga i appreciated Redman because he was lyrical and hilarious at the same time. Plus hc completely MURDERED Pac, Daz, Kurupt on 'Mind made up'. Dont know how you can put niggaz like Biggie over Red.
I've been trying to find out more on the legends to like BDK and Rakim... I could never fux with run dmc tho it's just something about their shit that is just wack as hell but that's my opinion
