I mean serious. NWA was the fucking Beatles of rap. Even now 15 years later, they're at the top of their game (well not the dead one). But 'Dre and Cube were Paul and John. They just fucking own rap, and everything that's spawned in the entire industry since NWA is because of what they did.
There was some pussy rap like Rapper's delight before then, but Nigga Please. NWA, Geto Boys, Eric B and Rakhim, they just made the whole thing. What was once just underground and unconscionable is now the mainstream music.
And Dre and Cube are still at the top of the industry. Not just the actual music, but producing, finding new artists. I'm not so much a fan of 'Dre, but Ice Cube is the fucking man.
All rappers should bow to him.
