Redman spits lava no question! as far as i am concerned[b] he and Method Man are probably the best rap tag team[/b] ever songs like Tear Da Roof,Da Rockwilder e.t.c are some of my high school classics i listen to them till this day

A-40:

Really? can that dude rap lol i see him on all of Busta's videos but he hardly raps

A-40:

Big Pun/Fat Joe.

Nas/AZ

~Sauron~:

Jigga/Memphis Bleek

~Sauron~:

Eminem/50.

iice:

Life!! Great combo, they play off each other real well.

funkybaby:

Go listen to 'I know what you want' - buster ft. mariah (I think he handled the first verse)
Listen to 'make it clap' - busta, as well

A-40:

Close but no cigar go listen to Red and Meth's classics you have been sleeping on those cats

For where!! why not Pasuma and Obesere  they don't even come close abeg go listen to City Lights ft UGK and feel Red and Meth spit lava

You can't be serious still Nas is good i agree but AZ compared to Red and Meth? man stop smoking hay

I like Jigga you know that but he and Bleek do not have as much chemistry as Red and Meth i was even expecting you to say Jigga and B.I.G or Jigga and Scarface

Why not Flowshow and Ofokasibe 

If i would pick other cats that have chemistry it would be Jadakiss/Styles

You would even love them when they are featured as guests on other tracks

~Sauron~:

Deep Cover, Dre's Day, Nuthing But A 'G' Thang, Still DRE.
Are u shitting me??


A-40, Are u high on Bolivian hash?? Have u forgotten these 2 cats on THE FIRM??

I would even choose these combo before Dre/Snoop.
"Marcy to Hollywood", "Coming of Age", "Parking Lot", "U, Me, Him, Her"
Memphis Bleek is so underrated.

Patiently Waiting has more substance than any Meth/Red collabo and trust me. . . .i love "Rockwilda"
Robin n Gatman, The Re-Up etc. Those are rap classics.
Boom boom shock, boom boom boom shock. . . . .

LOX cats?? They are wack together.
Gimme Jada solo and i would be fyne.

~Sauron~:

Redman and Meth are kool but they are not on the same level of the 2 fatsos.
Gosh, go and cop Big Pun's debut album and see the verbiage chemistry of the fat cats.

~Sauron~:

A-40:

I agree Dre and Snoop where good and those tunes where classics but they did not have as much chemistry and would not be mentioned ahead of Redman and Method Man in any rap tag team countdown

Ohh stop it!! is it Fat Joe that started rhyming a little better after Big Pun died? Big Pun was good but comparing him to Tical and The Doc is rather naive in my opinion

I don't care if they ran the Corporation! go listen to the entire Blackout album and come back to me on Red and Meth

You can't tell me nothing about the Roc man i eat,sleep and drink Rocafella! Beanie Sigel was a far better sparring partner for Jay-Z than Memph Bleek go and listen to Guess who's back,Pop 4 Roc,Do it again,What we do is wrong,This can't be life e.t.c

Your bias for anything Fiddy and Eminem is becoming nauseating.Robin and Gatman? you must be high on cohiba!

Go listen to 2 tears in a bucket on Ruff Ryders Vol2 and hola at me

LOX whack? you should stick to Juju!! go and listen to Money,Power,Respect 24 Hours to live Reservoir Dogs and their Ruff Ryder tracks you would understand them better

~Sauron~:

No chemistry can beat 'Deep Cover'. U can add 'Next Episode' to it also.

~Sauron~:

Go and cop 'Glamour life' on Big Pun's debut album.
Forget their looks, the fatsos are legends.

~Sauron~:

Blackout album?? Maybe 3-4 songs are worth listening to. . . .
Others are just noise.

~Sauron~:

Beanie Sigel?? He is trash.
His voice spoils rap songs. His input on Freeway's 'What We Do' was a disgrace.
Freeway and Jigga rode the beats until Beanie Sigel crowded with watery lyrics. Have u also forgotten how Amil made him look like amateur on '4 da Fam'.
Bleek is so underrated Jigga actually said he would remember him in his will when he's gone.

~Sauron~:

Fiddy and Em are siamese twins. U can't take it from the 2 cats.

~Sauron~:

Their best collabo was 'Rockwilda' and the song was irritatingly short to qualify as a classic.

~Sauron~:

Money, Power, Respect. . . . . . . .DMX whupped em on it.
24 Hrs to live. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .DMX punished em again.
Reservoir dogs?? On Jigga's 'Hard Knock Life' album?? Sauce Money and Jigga chewed em on it.
Don't get me wrong, i like Jadakiss. His lyrics are not great but the way he delivers is peerless. Other cats on LOX are asswipes!!

A-40:

I love that song myself the whole 187 thingy! but still doesn't make them better than Red and Meth although your argument makes sense Snoop and Dre where very good

Fat Joe is not a legend! Big Pun was good but Redman would decapitate him on any track

Beanie Sigel trash? I shake my head in pity are you analyzing rap or reggaeton? Gosh have you listened to "Don't Stop" with Snoop? or "Feel it in the Air"? How about "Remember them days" with Eve

Sigel's verse the whackest on "What we do"? you must have been listening backwards

Read those lines and tell me what was whack on that verse?

Fiddy is not even lyrically sound to start with i don't feel his bubblegum rap at all him and Em do not belong to that upper echelon Fiddy sells Em short

Point of correction their most popular Collabo definitely not their best

I beg to differ on the first line maybe the 2nd but this is not about DMX this is about Jadakiss and Styles P
I don't know about Sheek who can be good sef when he wants to but go listen to Styles P closely that's another under-rated cat are you kidding me? go and listen to "Holiday" on Ruff Ryders Vol 2 pls don't f*#k with SP Tha Ghost

Sauce Money ke! even Jigga didnt do too well on that track
Compare both bars and tell me Sauce Money spat better

Bamsyle:

Of course the Dr Dre/Snoop chemistry was great but they can't even touch Tical and Doc with a 5000m pole . . . as individual acts, Snoop and Dre are great . . . that individual greatness was carried over into their combo . . . nutin more . . . you can't compare the chemistry between Tical and Doc with these guys . . . Red and Meth ain't as good individually as they are as a duo . . . it's like the two were destined to be together . . .

I daresay the success of the Dre/Snoop combo is largely based on Dr Dre's ability to blend well with any MC . . . are you forgetting his combo with LL Cool J on "Zoom", with 2pac on "California Love" and with Eminem on "Say What You Say", "Guilty Conscience", "Forgot About Dre" . . . Great Snakes . . . "Deep Cover", "F**k With Dre Day", "Still D.R.E", "Next Episode", "Nuthin' But a 'G' Thang", "Let Me Ride" can't mess with anythang from the stables of Tical and Funk Doc.

Jeez, you can compare Dre/Snoop chemistry with Warren G/Nate Dogg (though Nate ain't a rapper) . . . not with Red/Meth . . . those are outta this world . . .

Blackout! . . .??
That's one of the best albums from any rap duo . . . with joints like "Y.O.U", "Da Rockwilder", "Tear It Off", "Cereal Killer", "Mic Cheka", and "How High Remix" . . .
Go listen to it again.

Eminem is superb . . . Fiddy is trash . . . someone's gotta tell Em that Fiddy spoils his show when featured . . . I remember Em's "Love Me" . . . I was enjoying Obie and Em's verses until Fiddy came along and just spoiled my mood . . . he spat his usual hogwash - messin' around with his stupid jabs . . . From "You Don't Know" to "Peep Show", etc . . . 50 keeps spoiling the show when he makes appearances with Em.

Of the fatsos, only Biggie stands out unchallenged . . . Big Pun comes next - from afar . . . but Red/Meth still eat him raw . . . Fat Joe Nah . . . not in that league . . . hey, where's Heavy D . . .

Of course Jadakiss is a giant . . . LOX . . . how can you describe the duo of Styles P and Sheek as such . . . that group's got a nice bond . . . "Last Day" with Biggie, "We'll Always Love Big Poppa" (tribute to Biggie), "It's All About The Benjamins" . . . individually, they still deliver - especially Jada and Styles.

~Sauron~:

We are getting somewhere.
If i add 'Let Me Ride' and 'Deeeez Nuts'(Chronic album) to the mix, you would be totally convinced.
Meth is very good with those collabos. . . . . .He makes Wu-Tang tick, He was glorious when he did 'The What' with Biggie in 94.
The collabo he had with Busta Rhymes, 'What's Happenin' will stand toe to toe with any song he did with Redman.

~Sauron~:

Fat Joe is not bad. . . . . . .U saw his input on Ja Rule's 'New York'
He pushed his weight wella but he got marginally raped by Jadakiss tho.

~Sauron~:

Eve helped that song even though she only dropped the hook.
I remember that song because of Eve not because of Beanie Sigel.

~Sauron~:

On 'What We Do', Freeway was the dopest.
He really killed it with his flow. That is another underrated rapper. He deserves some credits.
Go and listen to Kanye's 'two words' on college dropout(one of the sickest soundtrack in the history of hip-hop).

Sometimes it's not about the lyrics but how it was despatched.
Do u agree Biggie/Eminem woulda made those same lines sound better than Beanie did??

~Sauron~:

So which is their best cut??
Rockwilda just fall into ma category of 'annoying' songs.
Annoying in me dictionary means good songs that were made too short for comfort.
Nas' 'Stillmatic intro', Jigga's 'The Ruler's Back'  and Canibus' 'Chaos' are also in the same category. . .Excellent songs that didn't last 3 mins. Shameful!
Why do rappers sometimes make the best soundtrack on their album so short??

~Sauron~:

I know but DMX still whupped em on both tracks.
Money Power Respect was the first time i heard X's voice on any song and i was like who is this cat??
Then he featured on Mase's 'Take Whatz Yours' and '24 hours To Live' where he disgraced the whole LOX as a unit.
StylesP is a witless apprentice.   His best contribution to hiphop was 'Go Head' on Ruff Ryders Volume 2 album.

~Sauron~:

I have told you there's more to these lyrics than the way it was written.
2 different cats would ride on these lyrics and one would sound like Gandhi and the other would shrill like Eedris.
That is the advantage Jadakiss has got. He's got this unique voice that lets him ride on anything he touches.
He is by far the most talented LOX member.  He murdered DMX and Eve on 'We're Back'(Grand Champ album).

~Sauron~:


Blackout album?? Maybe 3-4 songs are worth listening to. . . .
Others are just noise.

Bleek is so underrated Jigga actually said he would remember him in his will when he's gone.

Their best collabo was 'Rockwilda' and the song was irritatingly short to qualify as a classic.

~Sauron~:

I coulda said the same thing about Methodman's versatility. He is good with everyone.
Anything goes for him. Where would you put Meth's collabo with Busta Rhymes on 'Whats Happening' with the cuts he made with Redman??
Lemme flip the script. . . . . . .Where does Redman's duet with Busta, 'Da Goodness' stand with the Meth/Red collabo??
These artistes are gold in a unit but could be irritating individually. Although, i recomend '4:21 The Day After. . . .' Meth ripped it on that album.

Blasphemy!!!! Dogg Pound?? Mobb Deep(Early days).

Listen to 'Encore' featuring Em, Dre and Fiddy. Try 'The Re-Up' too.
50 tempers em lyrics so em songs can make the airwaves. U gotta think commercially.
Reasons 50 is a good businessman.

Pun's untimely death spoilt things. The Fat latino had skills in him, i swear.
Never knew until the last quarter of 08 when i revisited his album. He can SPIT.

I rate Jada!!! He was born to deliver rap lines.
His lyrics ain't too powerful but the way he spits em is peerless.

Bamsyle:

Of course I agree . . . but rating a Big Pun/Fat Joe bond above a Red/Meth tango is unacceptable . . . it doesn't even come close.

Ibime:

Don't be silly. A Pun/Fat Joe combination is better that Red/Meth.

Mobb Deep is a wack combo and been wack since shook ones. Daz and Kurupt is a sick combo. Kurupts second album is still one of the greatest albums of all time.

The best combos are Ruck and Rock of Heltah Skeltah, Talib and Mos of Blackstar, Styles and Jada of Lox and Andre and Big Boi of Outkast.

Bamsyle:

You must be going cuckoo . . .

Big Pun and Fat Joe are good rappers . . . Big Pun being the better of the two . . . IMO they sound better solo . . . you can't compare the duo to that of Red/Meth . . . these 2 are divinely orchestrated to be twins . . .

Tut Tut . . . do you listen to music through your skin pores . . . we're on a Snoop/Dre, Red/Meth, Eminem/Dre wavelength and you bring in Andre and Big Boi, Ruck and Rock . . . not saying they ain't good but can you compare 'em to the aforelisted

Ibime:

hehehehehehe. . . . . you must be the one going cockadoodledo. . .

We are talking of rappers, you are mentioning Dre. Abegi make we hear word. His combos are good, but he has no lyrical input into any of em.

Ibime:

Did Dre write any of that shit?
