>the jews share their truth on how to make a dime
kanye is too woke for this astral plane

>>71034139
Watts prophets were doing extremely similar music a few years earlier, and we're just as influential.

Just saying, not quite sure if they did it first either

He was baiting, but to be fair I would say the Beastie Boys deserve to be part of the conversation.

>>71034756
Yung Lean is legit though.

So wasn't Kreayshawn.

EL-P on the other hand. Stop that man from ruining his actual talent.

El-P is killing it in RTJ

liked his old stuff but good on him for blowing up at like age 40

>>71034829
El-P is a god-tier producer. wtf you talking about.

>>71030071
Me when I release my mixtape

>>71035014
Cracker's verses cause vomit enduing butt winkle.

EL-P similar to my guidance counselor snapping a phat lyric.

STOP THAT MAN BEFORE I LOSE RESPECT FOR A ONCE IN A GENERATIONAL TALENT

>>71035526
Killer Mike being way too past his prime.

Said generational talent WAS EL's production skills.

MBDTF is somewhat influential but everything else he has done is derivative of artists who came before him.

>his style of soul sampling was unique!!!

De La Soul was doing it in the 80s.

>he paved the way for artists to be more happy and conscious!!!

countless artists did this before him, most prominently ATCQ. conscious hip-hop was already a thing in the 80s and 90s.

>808s was so influential!!!

this is true to an extent but Kid Cudi was doing pretty similar music first.

anyways, serious answers to OP's question:

>80s

Eric B. & Rakim, Public Enemy, De La Soul, NWA

>90s

A Tribe Called Quest, Nas, Wu-Tang Clan

>2000s

the 2000s were kind of a disaster for hip-hop so it's hard to say who was influential besides Soulja Boy or Lil Wayne I guess. yes I know there were GOAT artists like MF DOOM but they were never really popular enough to be as influential as the other artists I am mentioning.

>2010s

Lil B, Waka Flocka Flame, Young Thug I guess, for better or worse.
