There can be any combination of Artists/Producers in your group of 4 members... maybe you wish to have a single producer bringing a cohesiveness to your groups LP's or maybe you want to really bring something fresh with three producers and a single artist who is bringing the story of the LP's to the listeners, with nothing but precise one man productivity... the choice is yours!

Here's mine:

Producers:

Eligh
K-Os
Deacon The Villain
Masta Ace

Emcee's

Eligh
K-Os
Masta Ace
Deacon The Villain

I have chosen to create a group that has inclusive producers, all of whom have great lyricism, ability to craft a classic album and would therefore push the group towards perfection.

Deacon The Villain has produced for Masta Ace before and they have been together on a classic track "Seasons", they have a drive and vision for the same kinda hip hop and K-Os & Eligh would fit into this category. Deacon's appeared on classic albums, has his own production company (you know I'm stealing Kno on production for a few tracks for free!) and is introspective like the other choices.

Masta Ace has a flawless discography and could help the group as possibly the most prolific emcee of them all.

K-Os originally stopped creating music after he was disappointed with what he produced as an Artist (DON'T KNOW HOW!) but he came back with a bang that's big like the Universe. His vocals would be perfect for many of the groups hooks and he can take it back to the old school beats or make it new school, he's versatile and as creative as a producer as he is an emcee.

Eligh is a recovering alcoholic whose production has been some of the best of last year, he's able to get the group to collab with the rest of The Living Legends and he's one of my favourite artists of the minute.

I've left out Kendrick Lamar, which was tough, but I feel my group would produce an absolute classic.

What's yours?

    Props, nice mix, Brother Ali would be interesting over Kno's production for a full album though, how come you've chosen the other two? They your favourite emcee's along with Ali?

    I like Kno and thought Brother Ali and Kno would sound good together. I was trying to think of two other rappers to go with them, they arent my favourites but thought it might be a good mix, not sure if the production would suit them.

    That's a big group Dilla, nice to see Elzhi and K'Naan though, never thought of K'Naan as a group member!

    Can see what type of hip hop you're in to lol

    Nice list though... I think The Essence like the more ? emcee's overall... which is funny as they aren't to my tastes as much.
    Black Milk

    That's a nice lyrical list of emcee's, I don't personally like Sean Price that much, he isn't to my tastes, but he is advanced with his skills.

    That's some line up of producers, I might substitute out Black Milk (controversially) but otherwise, that's not half bad at all!

    Apart from being a hip hop legend, I don't know them personally but it seems like Kool G Rap and Masta Ace are some of the most down to earth figures in hip hop!

    And respect to Black Milk, some people don't agree with him either lyrically or production wise, but shoutout to him man, he still brings a sound thats different from popular ? out there. And can rhyme to boot.

    Yeah, Ace, from the modesty of his rhymes and how he rhymes from the perspective of another dude on a stoop looking out at life that he sees and almost avoids in the do good'er outlook... dude's a genius.

    Black Milk has received more and more credit as a lyricist since he stepped out from behind the boards, it's good hip hop, but he hasn't caught on me on that level yet.

    Shad is the only one on the list I'm unfamiliar with, anyone over Exile's beats would be amazing though, especially Fashawn as we already know... k-os would have to add something to Exile's though, IMO. Especially if he was going to be featured!

    Props, would you want Exile to collab with K-Os or would you think Exile's production would be spoiled by the introduction of k-os on the boards?
