What if I had the power to gather all of my favorite emcees
With the illest comic book characters
and they became arch enemies?
Inconceivable?
Unbelievable?
Yet as wild as it seems
The Emperor and Stan Lee would coach the two opposing teams
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9HuGts2_SQ
It's the illest little story for all the girls and boys
Wonderland
you should see it yo
Animated actors that become ya T.R.O.Y's
Once you see it
don't believe yo

Ayo
get nice
shoot dice
Skip the small talk
son
Advance to Boardwalk
Collect the properties and profits
Expand and make
doe
yo
Slide past go

yo pay attention
and listen real closely how i break this slang ? down

Check it

my weed smoke
is my lye
A ki of coke
is a pie
When I'm lifted
I'm high
With new clothes on
I'm fly
Cars is whips
and
sneakers is kicks
Money is chips
movies is flicks
Also
cribs is homes
jacks is pay phones
? is nose candy
cigarettes is bones
or..
A radio is a box
a razor blade is a ox
Fat diamonds is rocks and jakes is cops

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ktArhDlfes
Out of fear of the deer watch for the
eye of the tiger
The Clutch from the Cobra and the
venomous viper
Boa-constrictors that cut your circulation
Mosts of their prayers die from broke bones and suffocation
The owls are private eyes that watch from the bark
Black panthers are the militant
who strike in the dark
Porcupines had a rep' for sticking everything that moved
In areas that the rhinos and hippos approved.... It's like a jungle sometimes

Nas - Rewind

I used to love her is done all the time, 'nah im not talkin to my girl, its HIP HOP!' Dope at the time nonetheless

But Rewind cant be duplicated.

Honorable mention Ghostface The Watch if for no other reason: who DOES that?!?! Only Ghost

Exactly. That's why I posted that track because it's completely original.

This is one of those where it comes to preference imo. Really is no wrong answer. All songs listed are awesome and many of them classics. These dont need to be added to the poll, but here are just a couple more "creative" songs.

Atmosphere - Little Man

In this song the rapper (Slug) Has three verses. Each verse is a letter. First verse is a letter from slug to his son. 2nd verse is from slug to his own father. The third verse is written by slug, but from the perspective of his father writing slug a return letter. The song is kind of sad, but i love songs like this where they are personal as ? and you really get to know the artist a little bit more. Its a great song of self reflection imo.

CunninLynguists - The Gates (feat. Tonedeff)

If you aint heard of Cunninlynguists by now, you really need to. This whole album (A Piece of Strange) was awesome and a concept album. This song in particular is a story midway through the album about a man at the gates of heaven being judged.
