Gotta get the Cream…
So there’s a bit of talk about Slaughterhouse, right? Joell and Royce are sick, Buddens has his moments and…err…Crooked I? As I was saying, who would you throw into a smoke-filled studio with a bag of Chinese take-out and a case of Becks? Four MC’s, one wildcard for guest shots. Go in.
Unkut Dot Com’s Roster:
The Headcrack Assassination Squad
Strong Island delivered us yet another unique wordsmith. A perfect combination of abstract wordplay and street science.
Sha Lumi brings together twenty years worth of Bridge influence into an action-packed sixteen every time, with the best ad-libs around.
Sean P is that dude. I actually through both the recent Bootcamp albums just to hear his verses. Tends to burn everyone else on the same track.
Every time Poet hits the booth, he wins. Nothing fancy, just bare-bones gutter shit with a a ton of heart from one of the most reliable troopers in the game.
Wildcard: Doo-Wop
Wop is a great rapper because he isn’t actually a rapper, doesn’t try too hard, he has a great flow and he keeps it simple, dummy. Plus it’s mostly the voice.
Sid Romes Roams on the beat.
Gotty™ from TSS roster:
Nas – Why not?
The Beatnuts (circa late 90’s) – for the production & the fact that they like to fuck, drink beer & smoke some shit.
Ghostface Killah – No particular reason except that Ghost should always be included just to shake up the chemistry of any lineup of stellar emcees.
Ludacris – Because the only rapper who has unquestionably stolen more songs is Busta. While I’m not a huge fan of either, I’d rather have measured doses of Luda spitting precise rhymes over a throaty Busta “raow raow”-ing in the absence of coherent thought.
Bonus shot – Alfamega – w/a room full of inebriated rowdy rappers, somebody’s gotta keep’em in line. Maybe he can do a chorus or two. No verses please, Mega, thanks.
The Funky Four Rap Sangaz
Devin – high on weed
Kokane – high on pills
D-Loc – drunk
B.O.B. – rookie
feature by
Hi-C – the original funky rap sanga
and by the way, Crooked I is dope!
i’d have Lord Finesse, Akinyele, Kool G Rap, Big Daddy Kane, and Thirstin howl. All spittin in full effect punchline mode over one of my beats,…
Old school selection i know but i don’t feel many guys spittin these days,..
A more modern selection maybe: Meyhem, Roc Marciano, Jadakiss, Ghostface, Again with me on beat. :)
..Looking forward to reading some other peoples selections…
dope selection.
sean is da man big time.he’s rippin it
apart on any track.i’ll go thirstin for
howl too.and the ‘new n improved’ rugged man.
always nice to hear them spit.
am sayin…. DOOM, Ghostface, Pharoahe Monch, Eminem, and Busta Rhymes…. each of these mc’s is crazy hype, as a super group the shit would be fuckin bananas
how about…
percee p
inspectah deck
pharoahe monch
godfather don
…with gf don or beatnuts on the beats?
Scarface, Ice Cube, Percee P and Kool G Rap
all honky squad:
Pete Nice
Fatal
R.A.
Tom J from the Knucklehedz
beats by J-Love and Sam Sever
guest raps and prod.from Edan the Humble Magnificent
Guilty Simpson
Percee P
Ghostface Killah
Sean Price
With Madlib on the beats
Rhymefest, Talib Kweli, Andre 3000 (provided he actually raps at least 85% of the time), and Bun B
Wild Card: Chino XL
btw, Crooked I is dope
alright so since unfortunately lyrics don’t matter anymore i’m picking some of the few rappers left that are still doin it and can still make you hit rewind say “dayum!”.
Raekwon, Jadakiss, AZ, G Rap
Production: Preem and Alc would alternate
What about Nas, Foxy, AZ, Nature with Dre on the beats?
oh wait ……
The Incredulous Shit Spitters
It would have to be MF Doom, Esoteric, Kool Keith and M Sayyid with a wildcard of Edan.
Mick Boogie on the beats
The Nutty Niggaz
Kool Keith
MF Doom
Fat Lip from Pharcyde
and
Myka Nyne frm the freestyle fellowship
First verse Roc Marcy
Second Sha Lumi
Thurd Ghostface
Forth Tragedy
All Chorus sung by TJ Swan
Cannons & uncompremisation – P BROTHERS
Side B Remix – Large Pro
Killer Mike, Sean Price, Casual, Pusha T
Wild card: Mr. Lif
Beats: Oh No, Black Milk, P Brothers
I think that a selection from the Crooklyn Dodgers lineups would make a dope supergroup. I’d go with Jeru, O.C., Masta Ace and Chubb Rock. Produced by DJ Premier but tracks by Pete Rock and Large Pro would also fit.
GZA
Del the Funkee Homosapian
Chali 2Na
MF Doom (Beats and Rhymes)
Ed209 you really puttin that reocrd together aint you? when does it drop?
Sean P spits better when he’s broke and bummy. Not feelin the coked out P. Put down the pipe homes.
The Un-Bearable Wackness of Being MC’s (The UWB MC’s)
Malachi The Nutcracker
Madlib/Quasimoto
U-God
Esoteric
Aesop Rock
And of course Primo on the beats cause he’s the only one who could pull this off (I see you Malachi).
ppls got good taste… but i dont think madlib has produced anything good in years imo the first quasimoto lp
and no mention of p bros on production? shit…
Here it is, try to step to this 5 headed monster:
-Tame One (An MC’s MC.)
-R.A. the Ruggedman (He goes all out on posse cuts; why not up the ante with an entire group project?)
-Pharaohe (Phenomenal Flow) Monch (Nuff Said.)
-Copywrite (One of the best punchline rappers out there.)
-Prince Paul (Too often overlooked, but he always brings the heat.)
What!?
With no parameters given, this is like ID-ing an Air Force One, the possibilities are infinite and intriguing.
Giving consideration to dudes who I would like to hear together, meaning their styles are similar, yet different enough to make a cohesive “group” how about:
AZ
Deck
Saigon
Milano
Or, for “syllables, syllables, syllables” crew, how about:
Wordsworth
Percee P
L-Swift
Diabolic
Really, you could do this all day…
Chino XL – he always brings something to the table when spitting with other emcees – peep that Riooot joint he did with Ras Kass, that joint with Immortal Tech, the stuff he did with Sway and Tech, Kool G Rap!!!
Papoose – I recently heard that Fat Joe ‘Fair One’ diss and ‘Alphabetical Slaughter’ and have to admit I was impressed!
Pharoahe Monche – love this dude, and feel he would gel really well with XL!
Eminem – when he’s on point, nothing short of awesome!!!
WILD CARD: Ras Kass – even though I don’t feel what he’s been doing more recently
Also, didn’t really understand the Crooked I comment … he is a heavy emcee!!!!
I don’t know much about Crooked I so he’s become ‘the other guy’ in the group. I also enjoy ragging on anyone west of Philly.
how is this for the best reggae influenced MC’s super group:
– Chip Fu – for that Trini spice
– Busta Ryhmes – non stop strength
– Spice 1 – The spiggity spice!
– Bushwick Bill – always has some joker’s under his sleeve
Bonus MC
– Queen Latifah – Her chorus’ from back in the day had some CRAZY reggae flava!
Production by
– KRS One – check his track record! nothing but dopeness!
Chino XL
Saigon
Blaq Poet
Ghostface
On the boards: Large Professor, Pete Rock, Premo (only one beat)

wildcard: one of the guys from Anti-Pop Consortium
El-P on the beat
@ Robbie!!! First time I heard of Crooked was when he spit this sick freestyle with Chino on the Wake Up Show!!! Both came hard … there were rumors that Chino’s verse was going at Eminem for hijacking his style!!!! Check it: Chino and Crooked Freestyle
With regards Crooked … I find his rhymes a little cliche at times, but def. the best from the West … and he spits flames on every single one of those SH joints.
Master Ace
Chill Rob G
Pharoah Monche
Redman
Beats by Primo,P Bros,Extra P and K-Def

Even though I am an old school cat (check my previous entry with my supergroup choices) I would love to hear a group with Joell Ortiz spittin’ stuff. To make more “modern” names, he could be joined by Immortal Technique and the guys from NYG’z. And by the way, where is Krumb Snatcha these days?
^^he got a new album out called “hidden scriptures” i think
Sid Roams are the Illest!!!
ghostface
mf doom
sean price
rah digga
wildcard: obie trice
producer: khrysis
Sadat X – MC vet with the uniqueness who never disappoints
Blaq Poet – attacks, what the fuck you thought was gonna happen?!?
Kool G Rap – the GOAT, if he can’t eat, nobody can’t eat
Greg Nice – mainly for hooks, for which he would be on every single one.
wild card – M.O.P. or R.A.
Unkut is trippin’ balls if yall think Crooked I ain’t nice. Ask Ras Kass, he vouches for the nigga and listed him in his own “GREATEST MC’S” list a couple of months ago. Canibus, Chino XL, Bun B, Just Blaze, Kurupt, Xzibit and the list goes on and on. All these niggas vouch for him. Stop sleeping and get educated. It ain’t hard to google the nigga. He got mad freestyles to peep on youtube.
Unkut lost!
