20 Greatest Hip Hop Groups Of All Time

3. N.W.A

N.W.A If Guns 'N' Roses were considered the most dangerous band in the world, then N.W.A must've been the most dangerous rap group because these five men from Compton, California, blew the rap game apart when they burst onto the scene with their first album Straight Outta Compton in 1988. The legendary group, which consisted of Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, Eazy E, MC Ren and DJ Yella, quickly became a force in the world of hip hop with their violent and politically charged lyrics. They scared middle America because they really seemed like the type of guys who wouldn't hesitate to beat you senseless if you gave them a reason too. What made N.W.A great was that they said what they want, when they wanted to say it and they didn't give a damn who they offended. Even after more than 20 years since they released their first album, songs like 'Straight Outta Compton', 'F**k Tha Police' and 'Express Yourself' are still referenced by people today, only going to show how much of an impact the group has had on pop culture. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33jyoyJNa2c
