    Hopefully you ? wont be bias in all these matchups and choose the better story and not the rapper you feel is the overall best.

    cube and his solos was the artist that got me into hip hop, and summer vacation is slamming, when the beat drops in on the third verse its so fkin ill man ...but SHAKEY DOG is so vivid, on some intricate other level of storytelling entirely...when they bust into the apartment and it all starts kicking off ghost just puts you right into the centre of all the chaos in a way i dont think ive ever heard in a hip hop track

    His wife stood up speakin' in Spanish, big tittie ? holdin' the cannon
    Ran in the kitchen, threw a shot, then kicking the four fifth
    Broke a bone in her wrist and she dropped the heat
    Give up the coke! But the ? wouldn't listen
    I'm on the floor like ? ! Watchin my man Frank get busy
    He zoned out, finished off my man's wiz
    He let the pitbull out, big head Bruno with the little shark's teeth chargin'
    Foamin' out the mouth, I'm scared
    Frank screamin', blowin' shots in the air
    Missin' his target, off the Frigidare, it grazed my ear



    ridiculous ?

    lmao yeah man, i mean the details alone

    'the big one had the centipede stab wound'

    'Whip smelling like fish from 125th
    Throwin' ketchup on my fries, hitting baseball spliffs
    Back seat with my leg all stiff
    Push the ? ' seat up, tartar sauce on my S Dot kicks'


    it will take a lot for me to vote against shakey dog tbh. Great thread concept anyway, should be interesting.

    Cube's is very dope, good way to flip the return to school summer vacation theme and all of that...

    But Ghost had you at the scene of the crime...

    "The best storytelling song of all time tournament."

    Dope, and props by the way.
    But your thread title only says: rd-1, followed by two joints.
    IMO you should make it more clear (not everybody nows wazzup)

    Best Story of All Time = BSoAT (tournament)

    vvv

    BSoAT (tournament.) rd-1- My Summer Vacation -vs- Shakey Dog

    Damn this is a close one. Had to vote for Ghostface; his pacing, switching his voice up for certain parts and references made for a better story.

    I respect Cube and he definitely has a way of storytelling and MSV is dope but it's hard to tell a story and paint a pic like Ghost...then tha beat just makes this ? all tha mote crazy!! That yelling/singing sample on tha background is bananas...Peace

    Oh yeah...Wu-Tang Forever!! Lol
