Fast Eddie, Mr. Lee and Jungle Brothers (I'll House You) are all great examples

Should have been one of the greatest on the mic but his voice never returned after a car accident.
WC And The Maad Circle

Good call on D.O.C. I forgot about him. Yeah, that car accident robbed him, and us....No One Can Do It Better was also a great tune.
okay maybe this sounds mainstream but this is one of my favourite hiphop songs of all time! :D
