    Lol KRS don't even have a "Back To Back" caliber song in his discography.

    The Bridge Is Over >>> Back To Back

    ? play "Hit Em Up", ? play ""Who Shot Ya", ? play "Ether", ? play "Takeover". Nobody playing "The Bridge Is Over" in 2K16. ? was good for its era. Kinda like Dem Franchise Boys.

    Quoted for reality

    The Return of the Boom Bap album and Hip Hop Lives should be certified classics.

    Actually I don't hear ? playing non of that ? from this whole list in long stretches. And it's subjective, sometimes I'll throw some old ? on and vibe out but that don't make it classic, just some ? I want to hear at that moment. A

    First of all, Melle Mel >>> Kool Moe Dee

    Second of all, its not like there can only be one legend from that era. Melle Mel, Kool Moe Dee, Grandmaster Caz, Spoonie G, Kurtis Blow and Chief Rocker Busy Bee are all legends. They all brought something different to the game and are all first round hall of famers.

    Melle Mel was an innovator, WTF you on about fam???

    Ice-T too??? Dude was MAD nice on the mic and put the West on the map... He 'stopped' rapping on top of his game, didnt go down and or go commercial RAP wise...

    So what does Ice get pass for??? He became a legend for a reason, he was dope... Dude was from the West and was doing shows in New York with Bambaataa, KRS One, Just Ice, P.E and them...

    Ice-T was the first west coast gangsta rapper true. Which is why he got a pass. Even people back then called him wack.

    And Preemo was a cat from the south doing east coast music. And Bushwick bill was from New York. And Doc from Dallas, Rage from Virginia etc. Whats your point?

    Ice T has one of the best catalogs in hip hop history...

    I've seen people on here big up so called legends and act like they were actually hot at one point but can't seem to point out a dope album or even a song.

    Ice-T and Krs fits in this category

    Most ny washed up rappers most of wutang

    And the Wu made it so that you can sign as a group on one label and then sign solo deals on another label, that was unheard of for hip hop artists at the time.
