haha ftw u are inside my head

25 of my Old School 50 made it to the 100, so I'm happy. My "criminally overlooked" list is topped by:

Stetsasonic - Talking All That Jazz
Big Daddy Kane - Raw
Young MC - Know How

Congrats on the birth of Lil Dee Ell!

can't believe I'm the only vote for this, is this like some forgotten dre joint

Above The Law - 'Murder Rap'

― Edward III, Friday, 10 June 2011 20:18 (Yesterday)

I'd go for the flip ('Another Execution').

"haha ftw u are inside my head"

Ha. Such a great tune.

"another execution" is a jam but the ironside sample in "murder rap" rules my world

mike otm abt "raw" and "talking all that jazz"

I can see bdk suffering from vote splitting but this one shoulda been low hanging fruit

"Mind's Playing Tricks" is a great #1. Geto Boys (or at least that single) have really grown in stature over the years. If people on a message board in 1996 were constructing a top 100, you'd have been flamed stenuously for suggesting that MPT was better than "My Philosophy" "Ain't No Half Steppin'" or "Bring the Noise". They were a notch or two above ICP or whatever at that point. In fact, I remember just saying that Scarface was a great MC on rec.hip-hop and get tons of shit for it.

The rise of the South (and Texas) and the respect for Scarface's solo career, as well as the internet fetishism over Rap-a-Lot, have made Geto Boys acceptable.

Right on; "Mind Playing Tracks on Me" is one of the most--if not THE most--forlorn-sounding songs I've ever heard in my entire life...

like a lot of these, i prefer the song it samples

Great sample, also used on this 2nd II None track which was on my nominations short list.

107. Nas - It Ain't Hard to Tell 4 120

I guess this album has so many great songs that there was some forced vote-splitting, but if you had asked me prior to the results "Will 'It Aint Hard To Tell' make the top 100 rap tracks of the gods results?" I would have responded "Without question."

was just watching a bit of VH1's 100 greatest hip hop songs list and they ranked "Mind Playing Tricks" at #45, if you want any proof of how our list is better than theirs

Where did Lemme Smang It end up then?

at #17, between "Smang The Bells" and "Nothin But A G Smang"

Good work.

did someone already do a 'smang a gong (get it on)' dn

the floodgates opening for "rhymes with smang" display names would be worse than that month of a billion based god pun dns

And you can New Jack Smang from my nuts

P sure smang a gong has been done. Lemme Smang it was 28, 27...?

Camp Lo were fun Saturday night opening for Digable Planets at a free show in Brooklyn

Camp Lo downtown on a Saturday night? Things done changed.
