[Viva Las Espuelas]

Greatest Rap? Kinda like Jumbo Shrimp.

[u2sarajevo]

:tu

Probably not the greatest, but it sure is up there...

[White Goodman]

IMO this is one the best rap songs ever...I could listen to this all day long, the beat is flawless and the lyrics aint bad either.

Ahhhhh yeah.

"I bomb atomically, Socrates' philosophies
and hypothesis can't define how I be droppin these
mockeries, lyrically perform armed robbery
Flee with the lottery, possibly they spotted me
Battle-scarred shogun, explosion when my pen hits
tremendous, ultra-violet shine blind forensics
I inspect you, through the future see millenium
Killa B's sold fifty gold sixty platinum"

"Ain't No Future In Your Frontin'" -- MC Breed

all so simple by wutang bloowws

[DarkReign]

Please share with us what type of music you listen to so I can shit on it every chance I get. Thank you.

:lmao

Im going to get beaten here, but what the hell...

Biggie Smalls: Gimme the Loot

And another track off of Method Man: Tical that is competely failing my memory.

[resistanze]

all so simple by wutang bloowws

WHAT???

When do you want to fight...

[Cant_Be_Faded]

that song is fucking overrated

compare it to the good songs on liquid swords, ODB's album, or any other song off of 36 chambers and it blows

[mardigan]

De La Souls Ooh ( I know its chessy but I love Redman in that song), Wu Tangs Triumph,

[Cant_Be_Faded]

A Tribe Called Quest - Electric Relaxation

Dr Octagon - Earth People (should be the spurs intro song since 2004 season)

[cornbread]

Dr Octagon - Earth People (should be the spurs intro song since 2004 season)
:clap

I will second that.

[mardigan]

Midnight Marauders is a fucking ill album

[Cant_Be_Faded]

yeah actually its hard for me to state a best ATCQ song, they're just all good and each album has its own sound

They fell off towards the end of their run but still are one of the best groups ever.

[ABDENOUR POWER]

I'm not much of a rap person, but changes by Tupac is pretty sick. :tu

[Borosai]

I won't claim that these two are the greatest, but they do have their place in rap history, and are two of the most memorable for me.

Dr. Dre - Nuthin' But a "G" Thang
Sir Mix-A-Lot - Baby Got Back

Oh, and I can't forget:

Snow - Informer :lol

[Liar]

Funky Cold Medina and that other song sung by the dude wearing a tuxedo t-shirt.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

-Yo Snow, 'dey came around lookin for you da otha day!
-Word?
-Word!

[atxrocker]

Dr Octagon - Earth People (should be the spurs intro song since 2004 season)


fuck yeah, that shit is dope

[resistanze]

that song is fucking overrated

compare it to the good songs on liquid swords, ODB's album, or any other song off of 36 chambers and it blows

I don't usually even hear that song rated to be overrated but to each his own. I like Liquid Swords more than 36 Chambers so I could agree wit that.

Personally I thought ODB's album was overrated. His whole zany, crazy style was a novelty factor for me, but it couldn't hold up for the whole album; I only like about half the album.

[Fillmoe]

kool keith is that dude.....

[Trainwreck2100]

I'm not much of a rap person, but changes by Tupac is pretty sick. :tu


The line where he talks about cop gettin jealous when they see ya on yo mobile phone didn't stand the test of time

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

As ball fans, thought someone would've mentioned "DREAM TEAM" by Spearhead, great track.

Express Yourself - NWA
Anything off Midnight Marauders - ATCQ (love any of their first four albums, but MM is the best...)
Buddy - De La Soul
911 is a joke - PE
The Wreckoning - Lateef the Truth Speaker from Solesides crew

just to name a few other gems...

[baseline bum]

I love ATQC, but Check the Rhime and Scenario are head and shoulders above anything else they've done IMO. Tough call on which I like more between those two though.

To me, Brooklyn Zoo and Rawhide (I think that was the name of it) are good enough to make that album a classic.

---------------------------------------------------

I thought I was the only person here who liked Kool Keith. Earth People is an amazing song, but I like 3000 even better. Biology 101 off that album is cool too.

Yeah those two songs are probably my fav from that album, but I like Liquid Swords and Cuban Linx so much more.

Probably my 2 favorite tracks from the mid/late 90s:

Wu-Tang - Triumph
OutKast - ATLiens...that song is just sick

[TheSanityAnnex]

The Wreckoning - Lateef the Truth Speaker from Solesides crew


Not many people know that song :tu

And he's actually from the group Latyrx, who is with the Solesides crew.
