In Hip Hop, We've Lost The Art Of The Posse Cut....

Hmmm....I''ve been extremely irked by this not so recent development in Hip-Hop. I'm reading the latest issue of XXL and they were giving a synopsis of the demise of "The Crew" in Hip Hop....I guess from that you could derive the loss of the EFFECTIVE Posse Cut. You know...where the ILLEST MCs (or second tier MCs) got a cut and just rode till the wheels fall off. I'm gonna give my choices on some of the best posse cuts. No Order. Just appreciate...pardon the East Coast bias as well. I was debating on whether or not to have collectives like Wu, ROC, RR, Death Row...but these are personal favorites...
