influential? SURE. but they also lacked the intelligence & creativity that the Wu, Quest Tribe & KAST had.
i do like the album though. they just seem like a bunch of goons to me. except for Ice Cube.

Nah I really like Eazy-E. His lyrics are so ridiculous they can't be taken seriously but he did some great stuff. Nobody Move is such a killa song for me.
Eminem is a good one. HOWEVER when he wants to he could do some awesome raps. His one on 'No Love' from the recovery album was just brilliant.
For me it's gotta be the obvious one-2pac. He did some great stuff sure, but as happens with some musicians who die young, their music gets hyped a lot more (and blown way outta proportion) than if he had lived.
