    A lot of good names been thrown around here (Ye, Wayne, Fewtch, Tribe...) so I'll add on:

    Cam'ron '00-'04 - He was a star in the making killing feats and SDE is very overlooked, his run with Rocafella was insane; Come Home With Me & obviously Purple Haze are classics and his presence on Diplomatic Immunity made him arguably a contender for NY's best rapper during that time.

    Jay-Z '96-03 - "Jigga held you down six summers, where's the love?" by the time The Blueprint dropped, Jay's legacy was already cemented; afterwards BP2 was a bit disappointing but boy did that temporary retirement feel surreal at the time when The Black Album blessed our speakers.

    Clipse '02-'06 - From Lord Willin' till h--- Hath No Fury they were giving us coke rap classics and besides Wayne & Joe Budden they had some of the very best mixtapes during that time with the Re-Up g---.

    T.I. '03-'08 - I always felt Tip gets hideously overlooked, after he booked it from Arista he went on a blistering run of excellent albums and helped shape the modern "Trap" sound. The only thing that could stop his monster singles and pop success were those jail bids.
