ok it took me a while to think of a title for the thread so i hope it makes sense lls

but i was in another thread and illogics had said something about jay killin dead presidents 2 and to this day no one has spit better on that beat...


so with that bein said wut beat has been used numerous times by other artist but still the original artist has the best version?

i'd say where im from by jay has been done by a couple artist but nobody killed it like jay

so wut is everyone elses opinion?

    I think Jay is gonna own this one too lol besides the two u mentioned u got
    Can't Knock the Hustle
    Best Of Me
    What More Can I Say
    Takeover
    Dynasty intro
    A Million and One Questions
    Upgrade U
    DOA
    u could make an arguement for Ignorant ? but i think a lot of ppl hve come really hard on that track (Lupe, Drake, Beans)

    Who Shot Ya- BIG
    Hero- Nas
    Superstar- Lupe

    do features count?

    i disagree about drake lupe and beans on the ignorant ish track cause if jay would've kept his original 3rd verse the track would've been better beans had like what 8bars

    as for the topic i think
    nas one mic
    jay where i'm from

    ^^ well thats why i said that. i dnt necessariy think they were better but i think Lupe & Drake at least rivaled it. i had to think for a sec put it that way
    Beans had 8 bars but they were nasty not better tho.
    as far as one mic i dnt think ive heard one rapper spit on that beside Nas

    I'd say any Wu song really. It's not so much that they are just better than everyone. It's really more a combination of the facts that not a lot of people spit over their beats and that Rza is pretty damn good at tailoring his beats to fit particular artists. I've heard a few people try to spit over Wu beats, and it's not that they didn't sound good, they just didn't seem to fit on the beats as well as the Wu artists.

    Maybe this guy who signed your website guestbook is a graphic Independent artist who will do your CD cover for tickets; maybe this lady at your gig is an acoustic engineer who will diagnose your recording space for a good home-cooked meal; maybe this local radio DJ will interview you and your band for, oh, one of your sisters home-cooked meals.
