So the other thread is blowing up (awesome!) but seems to be taking on a 'what's your favourite album(s)' kind of vibe. Thats great, but I thought I'd start another seperate thread for discussing particularly what some of your favourite hip-hop/rap SONGS are (namely cuz I got a few in my head that I'd like to mention).
I'm gong to establish a few sort of ground rules for this thread, but do not feel at all limited by them. They are meant more to keep the thread alive and not 'clunky' so to speak. So here what I'd like:
1) try to restrict yourself to strictly one song per post (I know it's tempting to say that Me Against the World is a great album overall, but the point of the thread is to pick just ONE song!!!)
2) if you have multiple songs that you'd like to mention from the same album, try to space them out a bit: in other words don't thread hog. I don't say this to be mean, but in order to allow some conversations to form surrounding people's posts.
3) Try to include why you enjoyed the song so much: was it a mighty dope beat that just gets you every time? Are the lyrics just on point, and despite the sub-par beat/production the track shines nonetheless? Is the combination of a so-so beat and lyrics so perfect that the synergy the create causes a metamorphic rap phenomonon of a track to be present? Did that last question even make sense?
Really what I want to happen is people to say a track they love, and then why. Maybe someone will have something to say, or someone will just have their own track to list. Like I said earlier, I'd like to keep the conversations flowin in this thread. My other thread (i'll provide a link at a later date) is great for finding overall albums to listen to. This is meant to be a more in depth thread. So here goes! i'll start...
