Nigga what iww did nothing for rap ?
What did IWW do. Don't give me some wikipedia response either
Yall keep talking about discography like that means s***. That's your OPINION. I can sit here and say nas has been mediocre since Stillmatic, but that isn't the discussion here.
Discography does matter.
You can’t be a goat rapper without a goat discography
underground and internet rap is pretty huge though. I mean its given birth to the soundcloud era, soulja boy, lil b and odd future and so many other huge moments. DOOM was a trendsetter in so many ways. You def cant name 25 more influential rappers.
I absolutely can.
Pac
Big
Nas
Jay
Em
Wayne
Kanye
Drake
T.I.
Jeezy
Gucci
Keef
Dre
Snoop
Tribe
Kast
Mobb Deep
Camron
Nicki Minaj
Lil Kim
Lauryn Hill
Ice Cube
Rakim
KRS One
Kool G Rap
Cool J
Run DMC
Scarface
I named 28
In terms of quality, no. Drought 3 does. CII is debatable. In terms of greatness, IWW isn't that great. It did nothing for rap. IWW had to be revisited for the culture to accept its quality and even then it didn't do anything for rap. Just a fantastic album. CIII is on par with Illmatic in terms of greatness
IWW contains some of the best and most iconic hip hop songs of all time, the bars are immaculate and the music is amazing. C3 rapping is insane, but most of the music aged worse than IWW which is crazy because it was released 12 years after it.

Bro it help establish mafioso rap in the mid to late 90s.
I gave you power has influence mad conceptual songs in rap.

IWW birthed Lupe's career, plus it's the album that turned Nas into a superstar

Nah, it really doesn't. Rap tries to make this an exclusive thing but it honestly doesn't matter in comparison to other factors. And half the people here are going by their opinion on a rappers albums, not the consensus. Snoop has doggystyle and he's still consistently put in top 10-20 discussions with a lackluster discography.

you literally put Eminem on your list and then you talk about mediocre discography post 2001?
Nigga what iww did nothing for rap ?
Op is trolling or actually stupid
That's subjective. But if we are talking about album's greatness, Ready to Die and MMLP are just as great as Illmatic.
MFDoom has no case for top 25 let alone top 5
Yeah cap
Op is trolling or actually stupid
@op is both
Nas, Kanye, 2Pac, Biggie and Hov

Most of this post is about the quality of the album. I already said it's fantastic. I'm talking about the greatness of it. CIII has a greater legacy and just as many iconic songs if not more.

When I say good discogprahy I’m not talking about having a only 1-2 misses. I don’t think that matters
Look at Wayne. He has a goat discography and a bunch of mid/trash albums.

Op doesn't know what songs are on IWW
IWW birthed Lupe's career, plus it's the album that turned Nas into a superstar
One rapper citing this s*** means it the most important album ever now not to mention Lupe damn near influenced by everyone
Nas was never a superstar in rap. He was a star yes but that was because of illmatic. IWW sold off the strength of people anticipating it because of Illmatic. If IWW made nas a superstar like you say, the perception of the album wouldn't have to change a decade later. You don't know your history at all and it shows
Just so we're clear... Drake is in EVERYONES TOP 5 GOATS!

I'm pretty sure the people in this thread are just talking about lack of misses or they wouldn't be on my d*** about wayne andn eminem
