"Raekwon Speaks On Which Modern Rap Crew Is Most Like Wu (link)"

http://wutangbook.com/2015/03/09/raekwon-breaks-down-which-modern-rap-crew-is-most-like-wu/

Is any modern crew really close, though? Wu had six of nine members with gold albums out within five years of the first group album. I don't think any modern crew is gonna see that kind of run again. Is anyone close though?

Peace,
