This is, like, legitimately great so far. Even the novelty songs are fairly undeniable.
Should I be waiting for the other shoe to drop?

xpost Definitely think Chronic vs. 2001 is a closer call than most would admit.
― Parenthetical Grillz, Tuesday, 7 June 2011 19:03 (thirteen years ago) link
loving the list so far even though only one song i've voted for has showed up -- guess i predicted the top 49
― Shippie_Ipley_Dope (some dude), Tuesday, 7 June 2011 19:04 (thirteen years ago) link
that is it for today. thx to grillz, johnny and spottie, and of course everyone for voting.

these are 25 great songs, even the one I think is overrated is great

I'm 3/100 so far. Expected such.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 7 June 2011 19:09 (thirteen years ago) link
Three of mine have showed up - World Is Yours, Rapper's Delight, White Lines. I should've voted for Still Dre too. A lot of the others I don't actually know - Crossroads and SpottieOttie... my favourites so far.
― Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 7 June 2011 19:10 (thirteen years ago) link
Eye Know, I Wish and Shimmy Shimmy Ya are my three so far. Can't believe I didn't vote for O.P.P. (especially after seeing some of the lesser-liked stuff I actually included on my ballot).
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 7 June 2011 19:12 (thirteen years ago) link
lol I didn't vote in this either
definitely would have voted for these:
97. Public Enemy - Night of the Living Baseheads [3 votes, 126 points, 1988]89. Jeru The Damaja - Come Clean [5 votes, 140 points, 1993]84. Naughty by Nature – O.P.P. [8 votes, 150 points, 1991]81. Ice Cube - When Will They Shoot? [4 votes, 153 points, 1992]
might have voted for these:
93. Skee-Lo - I Wish [6 votes, 128 points, 1995]87. Ludacris - Southern Hospitality [6 votes, 143 points, 2000]82. The Sugarhill Gang - Rapper's Delight [4 votes, 1 #1 vote, 151 points, 1979]80.

I've only got three so far as well, but my albums ballot was so thoroughly intertwined w/ what placed that I would prefer a surprising and random list of things I could just have easily voted for b/c they are great fucking tracks - so far, that seems to be the case.
― buhlogna mindstate (Pillbox), Tuesday, 7 June 2011 19:16 (thirteen years ago) link
"O.P.P." is the one i voted for. i don't remember making a deliberate decision not to vote for "Rapper's Delight," definitely would've included it if i'd thought to.
― Shippie_Ipley_Dope (some dude), Tuesday, 7 June 2011 19:16 (thirteen years ago) link
Voted Come Clean, Spottieottiedopalicious, and What's Up Fatlip?
Not mad at anything so far, really. Love a lot of it, esp When Will They Shoot, Broken Language and Eye Know. Heltah Skeltah's the only thing I haven't heard, and it sounds good (though if it's in there over I Got Cha Opin or Who Got Da Props I will be ril ril mad.)
― Parenthetical Grillz, Tuesday, 7 June 2011 19:21 (thirteen years ago) link

it is strange how Big Pimpin's cultural moment just totally passed me by - never heard it on the radio, never heard it at a party, never heard it in somebody else's car - it's like it only exists retroactively for me

I don't know. I missed it too. I was in SF in 2000, listening to the radio.

― Shippie_Ipley_Dope (some dude), Tuesday, 7 June 2011 21:02 (thirteen years ago) link
It could be me. I feel like I never really "got" Big Pimpin' anyway. I remember tons of Cash Money on the radio at that time.
― Parenthetical Grillz, Tuesday, 7 June 2011 21:07 (thirteen years ago) link
I've always felt like when I turn on hip hop radio here I do not hear anything but west coast + southern stuff and that was true back then as well. I mean obviously I missed something but it's not like I made an effort to avoid it or anything, Jay-Z just didn't register - if anything was blasting through the neighborhood it was shit like 2Pac, Spice 1, Mac Dre, E-40, Too $hort, Luniz, Keak Da Sneak etc. plus maybe "Ugh (na na na na)" lol (PG OTM about the Bay always making time for Cash Money, plus dudes like T.I., David Banner)
