i'm from georgia and it's not even close...mobb deep is on another level
Im shocked at the lack of love that Kast gets here, but this is supposed to be a hip hop head board. So I can see why many are choosing mob.
Musically, I don't think mobb is touching Kast. But I do like shook ones.
I think Kast is in a league of their own...
And I would take Clipse over Mobb any day.

Those aren't Mobb Deep albums...
Then Speaker Boxx/ Love Below isn't an Outkast album
I'll take the Infamous over all Kast's albums.
Oh but it is... out of all 3 of those albums you listed Havoc produced 2 songs b. Cut it out b
this is a wash for me as far as better duo. i think mobb has the best album out of both groups (infamous), but they both have a very strong body of work and both groups are well respected all over. both groups also had their major debuts with classic albums right on the tail end of the golden era of hip hop.
how so?
if you're referring to the rise of southern hip hop as the demise of hip hop in general, then i believe you have it wrong. hip hop's demise was not because of the rise of southern hip hop. if the east and west coast continued to make strong music at the same time the south started coming up then there might not have been a "demise"...
also i don't put outkast, goodie mob, ugk, etc in the same category of snap rap or trap rap that the south gets a bad rep for.

just so happens their biggest hit was on their 4th album right?
so?
i'll take it further and say that a handful of songs on there are amongst their best tracks.
but when you factor in the other 17 tracks, you have a trash album.
Haven't been a fan of Mobb Deep since after Murda Muzik. That was their last quality album to me and everybody knows how bad prodigy has fallen off lyrically. Not to mention they were never diverse.
Kast by the size of a planet.

Sometimes I feel the first three Outkast albums are classic, sometimes I feel none of them are. The Infamous is the only undisputed classic from either group.
Hav is a lot nicer than he gets credit for. But I'll go with Big Boi. P was the GOAT from 95-99.
nikka you said Havoc was a better rapper than Big Boi... and said Prodigy had a case for GOAT. We can easily put on Big Boi's solo projects to just completely disregard that first statement. 3 Stacks can go verse for verse with anyone

even on the 3 album run that gets compared outkast was more dynamic. i dont think its just that its a hip hop board, you coulda been on any balanced hip hop board after that 3 album run and most would have said outkast. there are just a bunch of east heads on here. cmon, stankonia being portrayed as not even good? this would be like saying goodie mob was better than kast.
