Thoughts?

Not my personal top 75, but a good list nonetheless. Illmatic got a lot of love on this.

Garbage...

Garbage...

my thoughts exactly. They might as well call it the 75 greatest new york hiphop tracks of time

I think it's a pretty good list considering the thousands and thousands of great songs and how hard it is to narrow it down to a list that pleases everybody.

There are some questionable and downright outlandish selections on there without a doubt though:
Many Men
Damien
Man's World
Classic
Ebonics


^ the most glaring ones

This is a thread they are doing on this other site I go on, where people voted and the votes were tallied and shit, and this is the list up to this point (it's almost done)

do you post as Scottishhead and post like him over there aswell ?

do you post as Scottishhead and post like him over there aswell ?

Nope.

What Site Is This?

wit the fuck ?

why is T.R.O.Y. not on that list ?

hopefully it's in the top 5

What Site Is This?

Nobody Smiling.com

Decent site, some people that know a lot, some people who are complete and utter idiots.

Why isn't "The Bridge Is Over", "My Melody" or "My Philosophy" on it? If they are I don't see them.

Nobody Smiling.com

Decent site, some people that know a lot, some people who are complete and utter idiots.

In other words, exactly the same as the HHF on RW.

My Philosophy is number 27

Garbage...

bingo

In other words, exactly the same as the HHF on RW.
I guess you can say that, except it's far more active

Threads regularly go into the hundreds of posts in a short period of time(although a lot of the good ones don't due to the aforementioned idiots)

u put "till i collapse" at like 72 and no other eminem tracks............ an u put 50 cent at like 40th. eminem is much better than 50 cent, on any track. 50 cent doesnt even use multis.

classic is definitely a strange pick

u put "till i collapse" at like 72 and no other eminem tracks............ an u put 50 cent at like 40th. eminem is much better than 50 cent, on any track. 50 cent doesnt even use multis.

Neither song should be on the list really (regardless if Till I Collapse is maybe Eminem's best song)

classic is definitely a strange pick

Yeah, I really don't understand it

Stanley ready to start a riot

he must be on that Red Bull again

your an angry drunk

i think wee need to put you into AA to get you off of that Red Bull

In other words, exactly the same as the HHF on RW.

it might be, but what Con loves is that he can go to that site and just be you kamikaze style without anyone saying anything as they think it's him ...

smh @ The Message being #46...should be much higher

#1-6 haven't been revealed yet

Thoughts?

Wouldnt it be 1-5 that havent been released yet, since there was a tie for 8th?

wit the fuck ?

why is T.R.O.Y. not on that list ?

hopefully it's in the top 5
T.R.O.Y. was just posted as #6

^^^ sound

A little cliche, a little old school thrown in for credibility, a little faux "depth" to give it some profound thought... bam! You got yourself a VH1 list.

This shit is also missing "I used to love her" and "passin' me by"



Gay

Correct me if im wrong but why aint there at least one Cypress Hill song?

Infinite ought to be in the top 5.

where the hell is "I used to love H.E.R"?! That definitely deserves a place on that list, far more than MANY MEN...

2 of amerikaz most wanted? the song is good, but i don't think it should be one of hiphop's greatest :/, if that song makes it on there, 'me against the world' should be on there as well

also shook ones

#35: Renegade

Sigh...i guarantee you that song wouldn't have been on that list if jigga wasn't on it because of his popularity.

Cypress Hill - Insane In The Membrane
House Of Pain - Jump Around
Coolio - Gangsta's Paradise

These Should Be There.

*Double Post My Bad*

After looking at that again i really think RW should make one from scratch.

Streets of New York- Kool G Rap
Road To The Riches- Kool G Rap
Ain't No Half Steppin- Big Daddy Kane
Niguz Talk Shit- Black Moon
Who Got The Props?- Black Moon
Follow The Leader- Eric B & Rakim
The Militia- Gang Starr ft. Freddie Foxx & Big Shug
Shadowboxin'- GZA ft. Method Man
The Nigga Ya Love To Hate- Ice Cube
New York New York- DPG
Express Yourself- N.W.A.
Stray Bullet- Organized Konfusion
Stress- Organized Konfusion
Don't Believe The Hype- Public Enemy
Time 4 Sum Aksion- Redman
It Takes Two- Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock
Now I Feel Ya- Scarface
Hand of The Dead Body- Scarface ft. Ice Cube

^Some songs I think deserved to make the list up to this point

And a couple others people have named

I Used To Love H.E.R. will probably make the top 5

*Double Post My Bad*

After looking at that again i really think RW should make one from scratch.

good idea also i think the list is decent but it needs work

what about some NWA classics

EDIT:my bad just read it wrong

I'll go for Cream, Ice Cream and some of this doggystyle shit in this top 5.. Also Sound of the police by KRS, Kriss kross' jump off, CNN's L.A.L.A, Eazy's gangsta beat 4 tha streets, Pun's Fast money (more likely beware tho), and Smiff N Wessun's Reckognize rmx r huge missin tracks.. Naughty by nature's classics too, and those that you said, but the list would just go on and on..

Some here have nothing to do past the 500th greatest tho..

That list is fucking WANK. "The Message" should be top ten.

No DWYCK......one of THE most classic tracks ever.......list has good tracks, but those peeps dont know ish.....It is really hard to compile a list like that tho......

C.R.E.A.M. was # 5

#4: One Mic
#3: I Used To Love H.E.R.

Hints seem to point to The World Is Yours as one of the next 2 songs

imao^^ then this list is fonny..

Dead Prez 2 is a ill joint

#2: The World Is Yours
#1: Shook Ones Pt. II

that was the top 2 for anybody who might give a fuck.

I agree with Shook Ones Pt. II being first.

I agree with the world is yours being up there. But shook ones? nahhhhh

I agree with most of these songs being in the top 75, but in no particular order.

Shook Ones Pt. II is one of the most definitive rap songs of all-time though, no doubt. While not my favorite personally, the beat is probably the most highly regarded amongst true hip hop fans.

The World Is Yours at #2? Nice...that's one of my favorite songs, good to see it got more love than the rest of Illmatic.

/\
So u rekon it should be number one?

^ Not necessarily, but I can understand someone's reasoning for putting it there.

This thread is boring and is irelevant as making lists of songs as if it counts for anything. Why does everyone feel the need to rate songs off against each other? Who cares, just fucking listen to them. Music isn't a science, stop trying to categorize everything. It's boring.

^ word to your mother

A little suprised cuz it was an opinion poll that Still Dre wasn't on there......from my experience loads of people love that track regardless of who wrote it, performed it and did the production for it...... Would probably make my top 75 list if I could be arsed to make one....
