List your top 10 favorite Rap songs Current or Classics

[Eddy Munny]

Doggystyle doesn't suck. It's basically The Chronic II, but with a different lead rapper. The beats and the production are sick.

Reminds me of when I asked my aunt for the "Doggystyle" CD for Christmas....Had to be about 10 at the time....Couldn't understand why I didn't get it

But yeah, Doggystyle and The Chronic have a bunch of my favorite rap songs ever...I pretty much think of them as one for some reason and the songs blur together

For good reason. Although I did list a track from Tech N9ne from last year.

can you blame us? the 90's/ early 2000's was the best era hip hop will ever see. cmon they still plays 90's hip hop on the radio 20 years later

Why won't they play 2010s hip hop 20 years later? of course we will

cmon is this has to be a joke

none of the music out now is going to be classic or very few of the songs but nothing compares to 90's era of hip hop.

[Deken00]

90s is fine, but Motown is the shizz

[Eddy Munny]

My beats are icky.......... My beats are icky..........

It's a new era of hip hop. Production is a bigger part of hip hop then it ever was. Some of this shit is actually better then some overrated 90's shit if you listen to it right. This is the beats era. If you don't have a pair of beats you aren't hearing it the way you are supposed to. The 90's era was hip hops finest hour but you can't tell me guys like Kendrick and Kanye won't be getting spins 20 years down the road.

Watch the Throne
Good Kid Madd City
My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

Not to mention guys like Pusha T and Fab still putting in work. Also, you can't tell me guys like J. Cole, Papoose, Schoolboy Q, hell even Drake as much as I don't like him aren't potential future classic hip hop albums if put in the right mindset. Hip hop has a lot of depth these days. The shit is different but why is that bad?

i agree with most of what you say..... yes it is about the production and there are a lot of great beats but that doesnt make the lyrics any better. the guys you mentioned do have talent and will be played 20 years from now but no where near the rotations that the 90's guys get now. drake imo has the most talent out of everyone you mentioned including kanye. fab is a late 90's/early 2000's guy pusha t's biggest hit was when he was with clipse again in the 90's. when biggie, jay, nas , ** tang, pun,etc. all came out you knew you were listening to classic music. hip hop has a lot of depth now just think back to the time period im taking about that was depth with all great artists. i dont think the stuff now is bad but it doesnt compare to my era.

The KLF's 3 am Eternal is one of my favorite rap songs. The rap verses aren't anything special, but the overall vibe of the song gets me.

Not sure why you said papoose lol but I was about to say something like this.
I would add My Krazy Life by YG to the classic list

Hip hop has so much more variety than it use to for e.g Odd Future, A$AP, Kid Cudi, Chance the rapper, Pro Era etc. There is something for everybody these days.

I do agree Drake and J Cole will create a classic.

You have no idea on the state of hip hop lol

I think it cool just to say new shit is bad

With you on geto boys, remember when bushwick bill got shot in the eye and he was like fukk it lets take a picture and put it on the album cover.. So they got bush wick leaning up on a gurney with his eye shot out and scar face and willie d are pushing the gurney.. Good shitt..

I said Papoose because I really believe if the guy ever learned how to make an album with a story or some meaning and not just random street songs on a disc it would go down as one of the best maybe of any era. You can't deny the guys ability he just seems stubborn as penetrate and doesn't seem to have the right backing. Didn't listen to YG yet but I will be. Agree with Odd Future, Cudi, Asap, Chance. Tons of variety but some people are just still stuck on "if it doesnt sound like the 90's its not hip hop"

im not saying this at all. there is some talent now it doesnt compare to the talent that came out in the 90's its just my opinion. i also appreciate the collabo's of all the r and b with the hip hop artists in the 90's not too much of that going on now

Ya'll are crazy. Hip-hop is better now than it has ever been. The remix scene is crazy and pushing the music.

I half agree but worst examples of all time

[Cuse0323]

Eyedea...1 through 10, pick any and it's better than the rest.

ok post some better ones then.....

[ChalkyDog]

Drake is either top 3 most popular hip hop artist out right now, or he is THEE most popular. Lil Wayne is somewhere in there too.

That's 2010's hip hop. That's the current state of affairs.

It's worse than a goddamn dumpster fire behind a discount abortion clinic.

There might be a few good artists out there right now, and I support the hell out of them, as I have NEVER straight up pirated a CD worth buying. Never.

On that note, Kid Cudi's new EP Satellite Flight is on-fukkin'-point. Downloaded that shit off Piratebay, gave it a once through and immediately went out and bought the CD. Fantastic short album to relax to.

No lyrics, but an awesome song nonetheless:

Kanye should be ahead of all them imo. He is the best hip hop artist of all time imo

[allabout the $$$]

kanye is a better producer than artist imo. his catalog is ridiculous

[Jcole94]

being a producer is part of being an artist lol
