    Lose Yourself is barely rap imo. Great song but kinda transcends rap/rock.

    2 - Dance With the Devil - Immortal Technique
    3 - Rock Box - Run DMC
    4 - Beware - Big Pun

    Fucking tough question

    Gotta be Eminem - Lose Yourself, imo.

    Once we get enough nominees, i think it'd be fun to do something like that movie thread with the tournament brackets with voting.

    Some serious West Coast homerism itt

    One Mic and Stan in the OP are both very solid contenders, as is Lose Yourself. I'd also put up
















    and, a homerish pick I suppose,

    super hard to pin it down to a single song, and i might buy an argument that g-funk isn't really "rap", but i don't think anything tops regulate for me:




    also: i think dance with the devil is better, but "you never know" is the most meaningful immortal technique song imo

    3 of the most influential people in hip hop ever made a song that founded gangster rap, which is basically what hip hop was popular for for the next decade plus

    Yeah I dont really disagree. I was never on board the whole "stan is em's best song" bandwagon I just know it's his most highly regarded so I put it in. My #1 is prob sing for the moment but lose yourself is hard to argue with. I saw him live for the first time at lollapalooza this year and his encore was lose yourself, was awesome.

    Anything off man on the moon 1 is not homerism.
