Tony Sunshine's misconceptions in the "100%" video that, if there is an after life, Big Pun would somehow have escaped hell for beating the shit out his wife, and thus gesturing repeatedly at the heavens, is pretty funny though.

Nas Fat Joe Tony Sunshine G.O.A.T. candidate Pitbull
Haha ben look at the last verse of "Has It Come To This" which has far more metaphors than nas, as well as plenty rhythmic complexity though granted not on lines which you need to cycle breathe to deliver. I step out my yard through the streets In the dead heat All i got's my spirit and my beats I play fair don't cheat And keep the gangster's sweet Turn the page Don't rip it out at your rage Move to the next stage Lock the rage inside the cage Like SK, it's a new day But don't take the shortcut through the subway Its pay or play These geeza's walk the gangway Deep seeded urban decay Deep seeded urban decay Rip down posters alight from last week's big garage night And the next Tyson fight I cook 'em at 90 degrees farenheit And don't copy the copyright I got 'em in my sights Blindin with the lights Takin 'em to dizzy new heights Blindin with the lights Blindin with the lights Dizzy new heights

But for real though. This is the mother of them all, for better or worse (as it caused much controversy in Hip-Hop circles at the time)

Since Lyte was dissing Antoinette for jacking the Top Billin' beat, does Antoinette get in too? :)

Crooklyn Dodgers - here in Brooklyn, home of the warrior and villain / rife type chicks, Top Billin's the anthem
MC EZ - Get Retarded off ego trips Big Playback. this is one-thousand nine-hundred and eighty-eight / this is the year to make money and be chillin / i might not be Milk D, but I am Top Billin'
Method Man - Uh Huh Meth is killin', M.C. killin'/ what more can I say, stop grillin'
Biggie - Intro soundtracks his life up to the making of Ready to Die with Superfly, Rapper's Delight, Top Billin' and Tha Shiznit.
Dr. Dre - Bitch Niggaz scratches "stop schemin', and lookin hard"
Dr. Dre - Shittin' on the World Dre is chillin' Ruff is chillin' / What more can i say? Make millions
KRS One - Stop Skeemin
Styles P - Stop Skeemin
LL & Busta - Starsky & Hutch Busta: Yo, ice-watery lyrics flow like water spilling / LL: You know the rules of the giz-ame, milk and top billing

You'd think there's gotta be way more '90s indie types demonstrating they know the 'ledge.
