10 Best Rappers and Rap Groups of New York City (5 to 1)

5. Run DMC.  The original NYC rap group.  Along with Beastie Boys and LL Cool J this group put Def Jam on the map.  Raising Hell is a classic.

4. Jay-Z.  He claims he is the best rapper alive.  He is a solid artist with good beats (thanks to Kanye) and his best work is his first…Reasonable Doubt

3. Nas.  No one can tell a story, or a story backwards, like Nas.  Illmatic and Stillmatic are both masterpieces.

2. Notorious Big.  He never had to write down a lyric in the studio.  Ready to Die is his best album.

1. Wu Tang Clan.  Method Man, Ghostface, Raekwon, GZA, RZA, ODB, and more…..the greatest rap group of all time.  Tell me one rapper today not influenced by them.  Their epic album is from 1993….Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)
