We had this thread a while ago, it had something to do with Qwel's facial hair.

My personal list:

Twista
Rhymefest
Qwel
Kanye
Vakill
Juice
Cap D
Lupe
Big Drub
Panthrow
Prob Cause
Robust
Wes

In that order, based on personal preference. My "best" list would probably look a lot different.

does mass hysteria even have a full length out though?

I have some 12" from them, and I've always dug their live show.

Hardly. I know you think the south is the only region worth listening to, but when you're raised on twista and crucial conflict that shit sounds stupid as hell

Hardly. Im not trying to diss, but since Twista, Snypaz, Do or Die and Crucial, what has come out of Chicago that has been even remotely hard?

hustler · Post by **hustler** » Tue Apr 08, 2008 6:34 pm

lupe has singlehandedly brought the quality of chicago rap down an enormous notch

I'd put some Vakill in that category, Psychodrama (especially Yungbuck), robust's homey DA Smart, EC Illa, my guy Chris Swift who will never see a deal, Dun D, and assorted Southside gang rap that you can occasionally see open for Juice when he's going through one of his street cred phases.

I know what you're getting at but we get slept on all the time and I'm an unapologetic homer.

Psychodrama
EC Illa

im excluding any of the famous ones.

Chi got some hot talent. And I definitely put Juice and Vakill up there. Fuck what blast and hustler talkin' about.

Thaione Davis is one of my fav. from that area.

whats funny too.....is the whole battle style everyone uses now was directly bitten from chicago.....or more specifically Juice and Rhymefest.

I don't think Mass Hysteria has ever drop anything besides Molemen songs and a couple of singles. Maybe some mix cds or something. Its kinda sad because they are pretty good.
