Who was the greatest "hip hop crew" of all time?

[bigred22]

By crew I mean examples like: Zulu Nation, Wu Tang Clan, G-Unit, Likwit Crew, Hieroglyphics crew, The Dungeon Family, Def Squad, etc. Which crew was the greatest of all time? The greatest collaboration of talent ever?

For me it's Native Tongue, Likwit Crew 2nd.

in terms of success, was there any crew with more class/stand test of time albums like death row?

Deathrow came along at the right time, and I guess success is a factor, but were they the most talented crew ever?

That's a group. not a crew...IMO..a crew is a group of rappers where everybody in the group has had a solo project

How is G Unit in the discussion? Dominance cool, but talent, wow.

But personally, I have to go with the Dungeon Family. Two cult classics, EPGH and ASWAT, spawned by the energy and creativity of a southern collective. Native Tongues, Juice Crew and Flavor Unit get nods too.

 

[Bumpee]

Juice Crew

 

[richlove]

N.W.A. based off influence..and successful group projects + Cube, Dre, Easy all had multiple successful solo projects..I think even Ren went gold or plat with his first one.

Talent wise, these crews really stuck out; successful or not, these crews were loaded

well, one is considered the goat to many hip-hop fans and somehow still releases albums 15 years after his death, one is considered the goat producer and still has people waiting for his album for 10 years now, and the other is still relevant with hits here and there after being in the game for 20 years. And they all were in their Prime when Death Row was relevant...

 

[EPDC]

Can't believe no one else said BCC.
