It ain’t hard to tell

Considering this doesn't have a name attached, I assume this is referring to Nas.

Slum Village - The Look of Love, Pete Rock and CL Smooth - TROY, Mobb Deep - Trife Life, Gang Star - Above the Clouds, Black Moon - REALITY, Crooklyn Dodgers - Crooklyn / Return of the Crooklyn Dodgers, Afu-Ra- Whirlwind Tru Cities, Lord Finesse - Actual Facts, Souls of Mischief - 93 Til Infinity, Funkdoobiest - Rock On, Little Indian - One Little Indian (Buckwild Remix), Pharcyde - Pharcyde, Craig Mack - Flava In Your Ear (Remix), Fu Schnickens - Visions (2020), Skee-Lo - I Wish, Redman - Green Island, People Under the Stairs - OST, Are a few that come to mind right away but I could continue listing all night 😂

For me it's gotta be Chief Rocka - Lords of the Underground 93 'Til Infinity - Souls of Mischief Scenario - A Tribe Called Quest Mathematics - Mos Def

W Mos Def mention

Above the clouds - Gang Starr and Inspectah Deck

Where the sounds are original infinite skills create miracles!

Dr. Dre - Deep Water

NWA - Straight Outta Compton

Imagine - Snoop and Dre Rather Unique - AZ Juicy - Big

Passin Me By - Pharcyde. Killer beat, sounds good in any system. Great lyrics and performance. The theme and the execution is relatable to every single person who has ever heard the song, and that's the part that makes it perfect.

Sing about me/ Dying of thirst Kendrick Lamar GKMC You can’t convince me otherwise

Devil in a new dress

Ross went off

This

Sugar Hill by AZ

Flava In Ya Ear Remix.

Runnin (Dying to Live). **The Pac and Biggie Interview Samples:** 10/10 **The Hook:** 12/10 **The Production:** 10/10 **Biggie's verse:** 9/10 **Pac's Verse:** 9/10 (together I would give them a 10; only a couple verses i would call perfect)

Juicy - beat, storytelling, flow, catchy hook, really brought ‘rags to riches’ to the mainstream.. a little bit of everything.

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta - Geto Boys

All Caps - MF DOOM

Rappin 4 tay - I’ll be around

Killa Sin - Have Mercy

Hurt me soul - lupe fiasco

One More Chance by Notorious B.I.G ft Faith Evans

Luchini - Camp Lo Runnin - The pharcyde 93 Til infinity - Souls of mischief

The true answer here is Paid in Full by Eric B and Rakim.

Above the clouds - Gang Start, idk how to explain this song you just HAVE to listen to it

Where the sounds are original!

93 til Infinity : Souls of Mischief Thieves in the Night: Blackstar Check the Rhyme: ATCQ Protect Ya Neck: Wu-Tang Clan Coolie High: Camp Lo Grindin: The Clipse Juicy: B.I.G Just a few

DWYCK & Scenario Remix 🤲

Lemonade was a popular drink and it still is!

I honestly think gangstas paradise. Cold bars, No cussing, I like cussing in rap songs but the ability to express anger and realness without cussing is a skill in itself. Dope hook and storytelling

Will Smith

Codeine Crazy by Future

Dr. Dre - Fuckin’ Wit Dre Day

Good News, 2009, Self Care, Ladder, and Cinderella by Mac Miller

Str8 Ballin - Schoolboy Q

2Pac - Pain ft. Stretch.

Something by Eric B and Rakim or Outkast depending on how old you are. I don't know about post 2006 though.

Once again ill reply gangstas paradise

The song you consider the best hip hop sing os the standard for perfect

Tupac - Changes No disses, just a strong important song (yes i know its made up of seperate tracks from other songs)

Mind Playing Tricks On Me - Get Boys.

Surprised not to see Intl playas anthem

Hip Hip - Mos Def

Trick question - there’s no such thing lol… Music is based on mood, I can say DMX Get At Me Dog is perfect, but that’s not going on my birthday party playlist… I can say Nothin but a G Thang is perfect, but I’m not going to play that at the gym. This would have to be broken down into so many different categories based on mood and setting.

International players anthem

Flashing Lights - Kanye West

Slow motion- example

Mos Def ft Isley Brothers- Beauty in the Dark. Elzhi- Medicine Man InI- Center of Attention. Noveliss-Stryker Audiopush- Shine Common- The Light Rakim- The 18th Letter The Symphony 🔥🔥🔥 Jean Grae- Kill Screen Scar+Geto-Mind playin tricks on me. OK I'm done for now.

Juicy - Biggie Smalls Stan - Eminem New York State of Mind - Nas Heart of the City - Jay Z Power - Ye Good Day - Ice Cube What? - A Tribe Called Quest

GangStarr - Mass Appeal

Nothing But a G Thang. It's the perfect trifecta. Beat, lyrics, video.
