*IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER*
1. KENDRICK LAMAR - MONEY TREES
kendrick is like a very complicated emcee with like labyrinthine concepts and like sagacious beat selections and shit and the main reason i like him is because of his vocabularic genius. let's be real here for a minute can i be real? yes, FORK DART was a classic we needed another one he came up with another one with this song and we are all now his bitches
...i was talking about YA BISH
4. DRAKE feat. THE WEEKND - CREW LOVE
drizzay
5. EARL SWEATSHIRT - CHUM
my favourite emcee from OF i don't even like frank ocean outside of his coldplay song cause off topic but anyway yeah earl sweatshirt is this generation's MF DOOM i guess
6. RICK ROSS & DRAKE & FRENCH MONTANA - STAY SCHEMIN
the beat is very nice and the flows sometimes, also legendary rapper common announced drake as a real hip hop activist which drake acknowledges by rhyming a verse dedicated to common
7. ACTION BRONSON feat. RIFF RAFF - BIRDS ON A WIRE
8. CHIEF KEEF - LUH SOSA
9. JOEY BADA$$ - SUMMER KNIGHTS
90s babies do the 90s better than 70s or 80s babies not because they were born in the 90s but because '90s babies' is just an overall easier term to pronounce if comparison is imperative. and if you think this is not important what do you think rappers do? endless mispronunciations, so to get an easy set of words to mispronounce is so awesome! this song is dope btw crank it up and the bassline will shake your car's interiors
10. DARQ E FREAKER feat. DANNY BROWN - BLUEBERRY (PILLS AND COCAINE)
11. DANNY BROWN feat. HIMSELF - GROWN UP
12. FAM LAY feat. HIMSELF - CLAP CLAP
13. CURREN$Y feat. JOEY BADA$$ with CA$H OUT on the hook and A$AP ROCKY on the beat (he doesn't even make beats) and MA$E making a comeback - $_$
remember when RM was ringgit, and we used the dollar sign? yeah that opportunity for malaysian emcees to use $ has passed, although, if you work at a money changer *hint*
14. EL-P feat. HIMSELF - THE FULL RETARD
15. ACTION BRONSON feat. GHOSTFACE KILLAH - ANOTHER SONG
i don't condone in that last song they collaborated on that was thrash, please, this current world needs another AB-GK collabo. a proper one innit blud. GHOSTFACE was #turntup in that NEW GOD FLOW joint doe so if you disagree with non existent songs being on lists put that on this one
16. SHADY BLAZE - STARS WILL LIGHT A WAY
17. SPACEGHOSTPURRP feat. NELL - NO TROUBLE
SGP without mortal kombat and godzilla sound clips is like WAKA or JUICY or GUCCI without adlibs in general but this song is still worthy somehow cause of the beat and nell's verse
18. FRENCH MONTANA & RICK ROSS & DRAKE - POP THAT
i got really annoyed with this song by the 11th listen but they played this song in some URL battle videos and i love URL battles, especially that recent LOADED LUX one was that turnt up or what OMG. also i'm quite OCD and my mind tells me i need to put two songs from collaborative efforts of these three rappers in this list *shrugs*
19. AB-SOUL - THE BOOK OF SOUL
i like this song even though i only started listening to it like yesterday
20. CLEAR SOUL FORCES - GET NO BETTER
21. LIL REESE feat. LIL DURK & FREDO SANTANA - BEEF
groovy trap shit?
22. SEAN PRICE feat. PHAROAHE MONCH - BBQ SAUCE
cause i heard this and hashtagged it in my brain. P
23. SCHOOLBOY Q feat. KENDRICK LAMAR - BLESSED
BUT HQA WHY ARE THERE NO:
WAKA FLOCKA FLAME - i love waka but he hasn't made anything worthy post-flockavelli. thankfully CHIEF KEEF was there to compensate
KANYE / HIS CREW / KANYEFIED JAY-Z - because i get bored of his songs after the 11th listen except maybe the chaka khan song, but they're still dope though, i like that beat on that big sean song clique
LIL B - because he belongs on another list, if i put him in this list i'd have to edit out the rest because they're not worthy
JJ DOOM - i have no idea
CURREN$Y - the fictional song aside, i have no idea too, maybe because none of his newer songs can top this:
NAS - i love nas and he got mad critical acclaim and all that but i just did not dig his new album much! lols unnecessary. exclamation
MAIN ATTRAKIONZ - i digged their earlier album but their latest album is so boring amirite
BIG KRIT - i don't know i didn't listen to much of big krit last year but he did make my 2011 list
TRINIDAD JAMES - because he hasn't acknowledged this as a full length song of his:
ANYTHING I MISSED OUT PLEASE COMMENT (THIS APPLIES TO MYSELF TOO) STAY BASED
