I swear cats on here hate giving props to East coast artists. This ain't even close.

notice this too...look at how posters that didnt vote for wu attack them ....while those that voted 4 wu simply give their opinion......

ok as far as total sales i think fugees have 2 diamond albums to there name

and far as most albums

wu tang was dropping like crazy

as far as bone they had a few grammys ama and a whole bunch of stuff the smart guess is wu fugees where on the level where bep is now they was another level

but my personal chioce was bone thugs i was an addict to there music back then

i specifically named 94-96 because those groups had their most success in that 3 year span

Never been a big fan of Wu Tang though they are legends but Bone Thugs like i always said made Music that is the essence of Hip Hop IMO Pain Music something Personal and from the heart the expressive type of Hip Hop

I'm not saying every Hip Hop Album or Song or Single has to be on some Deep/Personal/Emotional shit but when that Music is made and is made in a dope way it will capture the public there is a level of connecting to Pain Music

Wasn't really checking for Wu in the 90's, that lyrical rap didnt really catch my attention when i was a little tyke...Bone for me, E. 1999 Eternal is timeless

Shiiit, Bone Thugs & Fugees (to lesser extent) were one hit wonders. Wu were cultural phenomenon. They took world by storm with whole new hip-hop vibe, variety of styles and individualists, tons of classic material that still sounds fresh today. There is no comparision!

Bone and the fugues were 1 hit wonders lol. Bone dropped thuggish ruggish bone, foe da luv of money, 1st of da month, east 1999 (single), crossroads, days of our lives.

Fugees had nappy heads, Fu gee la, killing me softly, ready or not

wow good ass thread I want to say the fugees b/c i think they had more mainstream success plus they had a female int he group that gave them more shine and appeal. But dame thuggish ruggish bone hit the scene and changed up the rap game. that shit was on the box non stop. 1st of the month cross roads they just kept dropping bangers. Wu was on point too but i don't think they were as massively loved and had massive hits like the fugees and bone. Wu definitely won in the long run

Street Wise and influence on the culture i would have to say the Wu. Never was there a group of that size with every member having above average talent. Nobody had heard of Groups signing on one label but still being able to sign individual contracts with other labels, it was unheard of at the time.

Mainstream Wise it would have to be The Fugees.

imo the wu peak in 97 with the wu tang forever album, which was also their last good group album. honestly its hard to say which group actually won in the long run because individual members had some shelf life (ghost, rza, meth, rae) (wyclef) (krayzie bone)

When the Wu dropped in 93 I was 20 years old. Method Man was the first joint they dropped, then "the Mystery of Chess Boxing' exploded. Wu were everywhere, when we went overseas all we heard was Wu. Came back to the states Wu, Bone did they thing too. But I was in Cali when Wu dropped and they were bumping that shit out there, so them being just heard on the east coast is shit because I was out west, i'm not going by what I think, I was there. Even when I went to Mississippi in 1995 they were bumping Wu, but Bone was heavily played too. The Fugees did'nt really peak until 96. I knew about the Fugess but they were unknown to a lot of people until the Score dropped.

And when the Wu dropped C.R.E.A.M. it was serious business.
