Ice Cube - Today was a Good Day

His jimmy went so deep it put the mammy to sleep. Those are words to love.

Wu Tang Clan - Bring Tha Ruckus

Probably my favorite album opening yet, and an excellent statement of intent song. Ghost Face Killah's verse in the song is sure awesomeness.

Pharcyde - I'm That Type of Nigga

The Pharcyde's first ablum is one of my favorite hip hop albums of all time, and this song is all kinds of awesome.

Notorious B.I.G. - Warning

Let's put it to rest folks: lyrically, Biggie was always better than Tupac, and deserves more accolades than Tupac, who, let's face it, had albums filled with filler.

NWA - Straight out of Compton

I still refuse to believe Ice Cube was in "Are We There Yet?" and it's sequal.

Public Enemy - Rebel Without a Pause

My favorite PE song. Sure, Fear of a Black Planet may have more sonoc innovations, but lyrically, It Takes a Nation is superior.

GZA/Genius - Liquid Swords

It's hard to pick a best song off of the album Liquid Swords, but here's my pick. RZA's stripped sown production is top notch, and GZA is great as always.

Beastie Boys - Shake Your Rump

The best Beastie song off the best Beastie album. Slick sample ridden funk thanks to the Dust Bros., and some of the Beasties best rhymes. It's amazing that they were once good. Now they just kind of suck.

Ghostface Killah - K.I.L.O.

In spite of popular opinion, I still think that Fishscale is the best solo Wu Tang album. I absolutely love this album.

Jay-Z - Nigga What

Still my favorite Jay-Z song, with some awesome production (it's kinda spacey), an awesome beat, great chorus (Jay seems to have a way with choruses), and a great flow.

Snoop Dogg - Serial Killer

This song always gets overlooked, IMO. The beat is incredible (Dre's early production is awesome), as well as Snoop in his prime.

Justin Warfield - B-Boys on Acid

Warfield's album My Field Trip to Planet 9 is one of the most overlooked albums in 90's Hip Hop. It's a psychedelic, drug fueled, jazzy, and all around awesome album. This song captures the tone of the album perfectly.
