Possibly the worst song ever...

That's pretty awful.  This is a bad song too.  I love it out of all proportion to its quality.

[RedKing]

It's a joke man, watch it.  It's like fingerpaint smeared haphazardly across a piece of paper.  Endearing if a toddler is doing it, unsettling when two adults do it.

I figured you were joking, but that link still made me :[

There are just no words.

What why? Excuse me for not being a big music fan(The albums I've bought in my 19 years you can count on one hand) but its just a song? Who cares?

Theres a line in the song that goes something like "Magnets: How the fuck do they work?! I aint gonna talk to a scientist cause they just lie and get me pissed"

It's basically two ignorant people marvelling at 'miracles' like genetics, rainbows, fire, dirt, water, giraffes, and many other relativly mundane and easily explainable things as if they are incomprehensable mysteries that noone understands. Wouldn't be as bad if not for the line about scientist, which indicates that while they have no understanding of basic elements and science, they refuse to believe anything they're told about it because its a lie to piss them off. Or something. Cracked did a skit at it at any rate:

That made me  . Reminds me of H-Dawg, the Onion's recurring gangsta accountant. Shit be real, yo.

Btw I hope you've checked out Illmatic because it's the king of this entire thread and basically of the entire genre

Oh shit and by the way you also need Dr Dre - the Chronic

Free 12 track compilation album of some UK hip hop. Ain't checked out all the tracks yet, but there might be something you like.

Oh, good catch. Jude, you are absolved of all your sins.

I'm listening to Halftime on that Illmatic album.

I...  I don't hate this...  This is pretty crazy.  If you think of the vocals as an instrument, it's actually pretty good on a beat and sound-flow (is that a thing) thing.

My favorite hip hop song of all time is "Life's a Bitch" from that same album. So incredible. NY State of Mind is another great one, but the whole thing is golden. Nas is/was a genius, depending what you think of his later stuff, but Illmatic is unquestionably the crowning jewel of the whole genre

The flow and delivery, and the poetry are both flawless throughout the entire thing

I had to necro the thread for this.

Dude, it can't be a necro.
The last past was yesterday.

Yeah, Illmatic is good.

Checking Dre out now.

EDIT: Oh, and whoever recommended Hieroglyphics rules.

Atlantic Canada represent!

Wicked and weird / I'm a road hog / With an old dog / Singin' slow songs / Tryin' to hold on

Word flow is extremely important in rap. Due to its prominence the vocals become a key part of the song, and you've got to have rhythm, man. You gotta have rhythm.

I like this mashup, along with the rest of The Grey Album.
