While we’re on lists involving music that maybe we don’t all like, list your favorite rap songs. If you have a favorite rapper, feel free to “give a 40 his props,” as I understand they say, or give a shout out to your boys in whichever cell block they happen to call home (as mandated by the state or federal government).
I’m just givin it up for BIG.
Peace, out.

4) “Right Thar” – Chingy

That’s all I can think of right now. I may add more when I get home and look at my mp3s.
In related news, I was at a gas station once, pumping gas, & I noticed someone had etched Deez Nutz by the place you swipe the credit card.
And Ky, I’m surprised you didn’t include Big Poppa by Robert Goulet. Oh and I totally remember shop class & Buzby hollering for them to play Iesha again.
Others to add to mine:
Insane in the Brain – Cypress Hill
Si Senor – Control Machete
Me Comprendes Mendez – Control Machete
Still D-R-E – Dr Dre

NWA – Straight Outta Compton
Dr. Dre – Still D.R.E.
Run DMC – My Adidas
DJ Kool – Let Me Clear My Throat

I also like eminem – there, I said it and I don’t care who knows.
bill you might like these:
cool like that – diggable planets
rock this funky joint – poor rightous teachers
Yeah, I’m familiar. Forgot about that one. It’s goo.
Nasty Girl – Nitty
Golddigger – Kanye West (even though he is an idiot)
some spanish rap for you
Akwid – No Hay Manera
Delinquent Habits – los tres delinquentes
If mexican rap is what you’re after, check out Control Machete. Their main dude, Fermin IV, left the group in 2002, so if you don’t know espanol & don’t wanna have to wonder if your music is offending wholesome mexicans within earshot, you can always try his solo album out…
Let me update my list of rappers (and groups) I particularly like:
Tricky (although I don’t think he refers to himself as a rapper)
mcchris
Snoop Dogg
Humpty/Shock G from Digital Underground
Prince (when he does rap it’s good — he just has a good voice)
Control Machete
Beastie Boys
Dr Dre (when you diss Dre, you diss yourself
Mos Def
Warren G
I do not like rap. However,
as trashy as he is Enemim has some funny songs.
Outkast
A tribe called Quest
Beastie Boys
Busta Rhymes
ODB
Wu-Tang Clan
But it is only like a song or two and for no more than 10 minutes.
311 – They kinda rap. I like them.
Forgot De La Sol – sorry.
OK.. top 10 but not necessarily in order (mostly older stuff)
Boyz in the Hood- NWA (Eazy E)
Nothin’ but a G Thang- Dr Dre/ Snoop Dogg
Lodi Dodi- Snoop Dogg
Freaks of the Industry- Digital Underground
I Get Around- 2 Pac (featuring Digital Underground)
Regulate- Warren G
Big Papa- Notorious B.I.G.
You’s a Ho- Ludacris
OPP- Naughty By Nature
Kalifornia Love- 2Pac/ Dr. Dre
Not top 10.. but honorable mentions that have popped into my head (or more recent stuff)
Who Let These Hoes In my Room- Ludacris and friends
Still Fly- Big Tymers
Big Pimpin’- JayZ
Top Back – TI and Grande Hustle Team
Poppn’ My Collar- Three 6 Mafia

Jules you totally for got Area Codes by Ludacris. That will always stay in my top 10 :0)
Jules, what happened to Shake Your Money Maker?
Throw your hands in the air if you think you’re a playa!
very nice list julie, there’s acouple here i haven;t actually heard. i’m not a big ludacris fan i guess.but i may give him a try. I always like a guy who includes the word “hoes” in half of his song titles.
for the next few hours i am going to lock the doors and actually come up with a top ten, hopefully in order, that may take an extra hour.
What’s enjoyable is to look at the top of this list of comments and see Calvin Coolidge listing off his fav rap songs.
that adds a lot of credibility to your website
This is one of the best threads I’ve seen in a long time: Charts and graphs of rap song lyrics
Reminds me of a great Weekend Update joke.
>Polaroid is warning customers not to listen to the part of the Outkast song “Hey Ya” that tells people >to “shake it like a Polaroid picture”, because that could actually ruin the pictures. While, in a related story, >Bacardi is warning shorties to be responsible and not sip Bacardi like it’s “dey birfday.”
Also, Shortys (sic) birfday seems to be very close to mine (or perhaps Kyle’s).
this is a good weird al rap
