Been having a heated debate about the greatest pose track of all time… There’s been lots of landmark cuts to choose from like Main Source‘s Live at the BBQ which featured a young Nas among others..
You had Craig Mack‘s Flava in Ya Ear which featured notables like Notorious BIG, Busta Rhymes and LL to name a few..
Of course we had Tribe Called Quest‘s Scenario which featured Leaders of the New School and the late Kid Hood. But at the end of the day you gotta narrow it down to two tracks..
One of my favorites is Heavy D‘s slept on track .. A Buncha Ni— which featured among others Guru and a young Notorious BIG who made his debut
Juice Crew.. The Symphony which features Big Daddy Kane, Kool G Rap, Craig G and Master Ace. When that song dropped in ’88 Hip Hop changed for the better. Everyone had to step up their lyrical game. The careers of all those featured took off and almost all featured on that song were immortalized within the Hip Hop annals …

It would be almost 10 years before another quintessential posse cut would come along on par with the Juice Crew. In ’97 the Wu Tang Clan dropped Triumph where all 9 members of Wu-Tang including Capaddona came along and like the Juice Crew before them changed the game.

its always been a Hip Hop fantasy to speculate as to what would happen if the Juice Crew squared off w/ Wu-Tnag in a lyrical battle.. Who would match up with who? How would things go down? Juice Crew’s Symphony vs Wu-Tang’s Triumph.. Which is the Greatest of all-time?
Why “Triumph” and not “Protect Ya Neck?” I think “Neck” is superior.
Gotta give it to Symphony, and I say that as a huge Wu-Tang fan. The impact of Symphony and the fact that each verse was better than the previous, while all still at the highest level of quality possibly makes it stay the best posse cut ever
Triumph isn’t a posse cut, they are group.
I’m goin with D&D All Stars “1-2 Pass It”. I still play that shit out and folks love it.
Alright…I guess (22)
I’m a WU fan . . . cobalt.
I’m definitely a Wu fan so I’m rocking with it! #13
Good point about them being a group so technically its not a Posse cut..
Wuuuu – peach
wow – yellow
A posse cut is a popular form of song in hip hop music that involves successive verses by four or more rappers.[1]
