I omitted Common, ATCQ and De La to avoid a slaughter.

Black Sheeps limited catalog is better than anyone else's on the list. Plus Dres is a better rapper than all of them.

My bad, I didn't see Common anywhere when I first saw your post.

L.O.N.S. for me, they slightly edged out Jungle Brothers & Bush Babees.

Black Sheep by a country mile, followed by LONS and everyone else in the back.

No diss to Bam and the JB's but the above 2 acts are by far my favorites outside the 2 obvious groups.

You can probably find JBeez Wit The Remedy and Raw Deluxe cheap. I say get them.

If I can find my copies, I'll post them.
