Favourite Rap Song Of All Time?

Stompbox

Whats yours. Mine would have to be Eazy-E, Eazy-er Said Than Dunn. Absolutely mammoth beat combined with super lyrics. Pure class

Orizio

Rather Unique-AZ.

The greatest flow in the rap game over classic Pete Rock beats.Truly inspirational.

Life's A Bitch and The Saga Remix are close runner up's.

StaggerLee

Rebel MC - Street Tough
Or John Barnes' bit in Anfield Rap

Trip Hazard

Mine has to be Who am I?(Whats my name?) by none other than Snoop Dogg
That Song will never get old and a I can listen to it over and over again.
And it says something when an artist has been around for 13 years and still finishes a gig with their first solo song, brilliant stuff.

Second place would have to be Break ya neck by Busta Rhymes, I Love that tune

The problem with these kinda questions is that people will always choose some obscure underground song you've never heard of to show how credible they are! I'm gonna say my favourite rap song is Juicy from Notorious B.I.G, some eejits remixed it and it plays everyday in my work arrrrgh!

Makaveli

Yeah, Eazy-E, AZ and Snoop Dogg all obscure choices.

evil_seed

Its a tie between Warren G - Regulate & Outkast - Rosa Parks for me. Notable mention to Ice Cube - today was a good day

Atrocity

Definitely We Can Get Down from A Tribe Called Quest
I am not that crazy about hip hop but i like a lot of the older stuff and am mad about Jurassic Five

Atrocity

^^

Oh I love Regulate too.. there's something about that song..

fightin irish

i loved O.P.P -- naughty by nature.

Orizio

Regulate and It was a Good Day are definetly classic's as well.Still DRE purely for those beats.

Halo

Regulate.................definatley!!

Good call, certainly nearly gets my number one, top 3 certainly


As for me, Gin and Juice by the d o double gizzle probably narrowly squeezes a few others out of the way as my favourite. Every time I play it, it just casts my mind back to a party I had last summer when my momma werent home, with bitches in the living room gettin it on.....
And so forth.
But seriously, its not just the whole lyricism of it, its that the lyrics actually remind me of all the exact things that happened. Change tanqueray and chronic to hash and Bavaria yeah Im ****ed up now, and substitute my mates name and the town of Bray for the line "Dre got some bitches from the city of Compton" and you get the picture

I probably love the concept of Regulate the best. Warren G is in trouble. His mate shoots the baddies. They go pull some birds. Genius

N.Y State of Mind, 2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted, Whats My Name, C.R.E.A.M all hang around the top 5 for me

Seaneh

The Miltitia by GangStarr gets the vote for me, 3 of the most under rated MCs ever rapping over an insane beat, what more could you ask for?

ubu

"....even mechanics walk around with their tools", quality song alright.

Rappers Delight by The Sugarhill Gang

i said a hip hop
the hippie the hippie
to the hip hip hop, a you dont stop the rock it

to the bang bang boogie, say up jumped the boogie

i got a lincoln continental and a sunroof cadillac
so after school, i take a dip in the pool

which really is on the wall

i got a color tv so i can see
the knicks play basketball
hear me talkin bout checkbooks, credit cards
more money than a sucker could ever spend
but i wouldnt give a sucker or a bum from the rucker
not a dime till i made it again
everybody go, hotel motel
what you're gonna do today (say what)
cause i'm going to get a fly girl, gonna get some spanking drive off off in a fresh oj. everybody go hotel, motel, holiday inn
say if your girl starts actin up, then you take her friend
master g, my mellow

of the man they call the master gee
well, my name is known all over the world
by all the foxy ladies and the pretty girls
i'm goin down in history
as the baddest rapper there ever could be
now i'm feelin the highs and ya feelin the lows
the beat starts gettin into your toes
ya start poppin ya fingers and stompin your feet
and movin your body while youre sittin in your seat
and the damn ya start doin the freak
i said damn, right outta your seat
then ya throw your hands high in the air
ya rockin to the rhythm, shake your derriere
ya rockin to the beat without a care
with the sureshot m.c.s for the affair

now, im not as tall as the rest of the gang
but i rap to the beat just the same
i dot a little face and a pair of brown eyes
all im here to do ladies is hypnotize
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on
like a hot buttered a pop da pop da pop dibbie dibbie
pop da pop pop ya dont dare stop
come alive yall gimme what ya got
i guess by now you can take a hunch
and find that i am the baby of the bunch
'but that's okay i still keep in stride
cause all i'm here to do is just wiggle your behind
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on

hip hip hop, a you dont stop rock it
rock it out baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang
the boogie to the boogie da beat

i said i cant wait til the end of the week
when im rappin to the rhythm of a groovy beat
and attempt to raise your body heat
just blow your mind so that you can't speak
and do a thing bout a rock and shuffle your feet
and let it change up to a dance called the freak
and when ya finally do come in to your rhythmic beat
rest a little while so ya don't get weak
i know a man named hank

he has more rhymes than a serious bank
so come on hank sing that song
to the rhythm of the boogie da bang bang da bong

well, im imp the dimp the ladies pimp
the women fight for my delight
but im the grandmaster with the three mc's
that shock the house for the young ladies
and when you come inside, into the front
you do the freak, spank, and do the bump
and when the sucker mc's try to prove a point

we're treacherous trio, we're the serious joint
a from sun to sun and from day to day
i sit down and write a brand new rhyme
because they say that miracles never cease
i've created a devastating masterpiece
i'm gonna rock the mike till you cant resist
everybody, i say it goes like this
well i was comin home late one dark afternoon
a reporter stopped me for a interview
she said she's heard stories and she's heard fables
that i'm vicious on the mike and the turntable
this young reporter i did adore
so i rocked some vicious rhymes like i never did before
she said damn fly guy im in love with you
the casanova legend must have been true
i said by the way baby what's your name
said i go by the name of lois lane
and you could be my boyfiend you surely can
just let me quit my boyfriend called superman
i said he's a fairy i do suppoose
flyin through the air in pantyhose
he may be very sexy or even cute
but he looks like a sucker in a blue and red suit
i said you need a man who's got finesse
and his whole name across his chest
he may be able to fly all through the night
but can he rock a party til the early light
he cant satisfy you with his little worm
but i can bust you out with my super sperm
i go do it, i go do it, i go do it, do it , do it
an i'm here an i'm there i'm big bang hank, im everywhere
just throw your hands up in the air
and party hardy like you just dont care
let's do it don't stop yall a tick a tock yall you don't stop
go hotel motel what you gonna do today (say what)
im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spank drive off in a def oj
