    Maybe it doesn't really count in this thread but Ghostface/Raekwon is one of my favourite duo's as well

    Tech N9ne & Krizz Kaliko, I mean they aren't a duo as in making an album together, but I'd still consider them a duo with the amount of collabing and touring they do.

    And how about DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince?

    The Grouch & Eligh haven't been mentioned yet, and Armand Hammer have also been killing it these last 2 years. If we're talking rn, I'd say Armand Hammer or RTJ are the best. If we're talking all time, Outkast ofc. If we count rapper/producer, Atmosphere.

    @Griff which Zion I albums would you recommend? I've listened to some songs by them but didn't know which projects to pick, and they're hard to find.

    My favorite albums of theirs are probably True & Livin', Mind Over Matter, and The Take Over (in that order).

    And if you're a fan of The Grouch, they have a couple collab albums together. I really like the first one they did called Heroes in the CIty of Dope

    Thanks man, I will look for these. I like The Grouch, I've listened to Eligh's solo work more though (Grey Crow and Poltergeist are nice).

    Let me know if you can't find them. If you use Soulseek you shouldn't have a problem. I'll check out those Eligh albums, I'm not too familiar with him at all.

    If you just want to youtube a few songs first, I'd recommend Bird's Eye View, Silly Puddy, Temperature, Trippin, Poems 4 Post Modern Decay, The Bay, Lift Me Up. They've got a lot of great songs.

    Do rap duos even exist anymore. The list posted really shows how much it used to work.

    Can't believe not even a mention of Eightball & MJG on the first page. @red rum and @Griff coming in to save the thread.
