[alexdelgiudice1]

curious why 2nd childhood isnt on here and come get me is.... believe me i can respect others' opinions, but not to that extent.

[Heronting]

just some beats i would have strung up there:

Kick in the door, Unbelievable - Biggie (agree with megakid)

The come up - AZ (for me this would be number 1)

F.A.Y.B.A.N - Screwball

N.Y. State of mind - Nas

My advice to you, Moment of truth, What im here 4 + so many others - Gang Starr

D. Originial, Come clean + more - Jeru the Damaja

[HakeemNicks88]

ummmm - mathematics? CLASSIC?

[Thailur5194]

You are missing plenty of good beats.

[DreamteamTA]

CNN INVINCIBLE

[yankeecrazy2]

am I crazy or did Gang Starr- Moment of Truth not make the list??!! that shit is like top 10 for sure

[micljnes]

@yankeecrazy2 Guru made so many mad tracks, it's easy to see how he could have forgotten it, but I totally agree with you, it's almost 'prophetic', and contains so many insightful sayings, ie 'don't be quick to judge, 'cause you may not know the hardship, others don't speak of, so just step back, and observe with couth' 'cause we all must meet our moment of truth', but I don't get the Jamaican girl at the begining. peace.

[Dmaccabees]

Mass Appeal made that list respectively...CLASSIC JOINT!

[DriftUltimatum]

@Dmaccabees word

[swayzzg79]

Love this

[swayzzg79]

Premo is so gifted in his talent



[holyo34]

[FreezBrateee]

shyem - on and on- this isnt premiers beat.. he made a remake of the song but this aint his :)

[johnydobry]

what about "ten crack commandments" , "ny state of mind 1,2", "werdz from the ghetto child" and... there are too many epic beats to mention them. BTW nice list.

[goredsox1792]

i'm really glad you posted this cuz it actually put me onto some premo joints ive never heard but lets be serious these definitely arent his best 25 lol

respect tho

[Zhiloreznik]

There are at least 5 better gangstarr beats. Maybe this is the list od 24. best non-gangstarr beats :)

[TiMMEh013]

i def dont agree with the list.

we both agree premo's the best tho :)

[rusteepipe]

no offence to whoever put this ladder together, but youre playing overplayed premo beats, some are just shit compared to the real stuff he did back on old ownerz n moment albs for example...ill ill ill producer, dj, turntablist btw

[jescrow]

Tight list, Nas is Like would have been number 2, and Mass Appeal would be number 1 on my list.

[massshysteria]

what order does it go? 25 is the first?

[SOUIFFA]

Premier produced the REMIX of On & On by Shyheim. Not the one you put in the vid.

[dangerousbrian100]

nice enough said

[sfknns]

wheres M.U.G by O.C.? Black cowboy or My Mind spray by Jeru?

[revolverution]

NO ONE RAPS BETTER ON PRIMO TRACKS THAN GURU...

[dfresh2k]

Not even close to the top 25 beats.  No DYWCK, no Moment of Truth, no Hip-hop (Royce), No 10 crack commandments, no 2nd childhood?!?! So many songs should have made this list over NYGz and other beats.

[dfresh2k]

[mcnultyfrank]

wheres NY State of mind

[chelobaby21]

[AngryUrsaring]

[crackheadjoe1984]

@Mega420kid  its about dj. premier not some b.i.g

[Mega420kid]

@crackheadjoe1984 no fuckin' shit,genius.what i'm saying is nobody can list preme's best beats without putting biggie's shit in the mix.again,you have been enlightened.you're welcome.

[GROVESTREETGUY]

Where the hell is the come up and mathematics?

[BizzTheFunk]

[brolli101]

the world is yours - nas

full clip - nas

invincible - CNN

Mc's act like they dont know - krs one

d'evils - jay z

you know my steez - gang starr

jfk 2 lax - gang starr

work - gang starr

[HabibKh]

@feeltherealness Its kind of sad to see that gangstarr has many hits but the album ain't famous as the mainstream rapper's album

[feeltherealness]

are you talking about guru's album or any other rappers album

[HabibKh]

@feeltherealness What I'm saying, dumb motherfucker, that Gangstarr has got his game at a huge scale, but his talent isn't as well known to people because hip-hop has taken a course and changed in the year of 2000 and so-forth.

[feeltherealness]

you dont need to be rude. cunt

[XxLokoTreDawqxX]

@HabibKh i disagree. rap was lost wen big and pac died. the last one we had was big pun but the nigga died. r.i.p all the rappers that changed hip hop, nd those whose lives were taken wen they were goin to change it

[sk8poompers]

@XxLokoTreDawqxX AGREED! But big pun deserved to die, no rip for him. mutha fucka beat his wife

[XxLokoTreDawqxX]

@sk8poompers listen to his song wishful thinking. he apoligized to his wife in that song. shyt happens dude, buh ppl have to get over it. his music was great and thats all that shud matters. lets let the man rest and stay outta his life :)

[sk8poompers]

@XxLokoTreDawqxX yeah i guess your right, if you were beat by your partner but his music was boss it'd be ok

[XxLokoTreDawqxX]

@sk8poompers the nigga dead alredy. he apoligized, his wife excepted thee apology, and his life was cut short about a year later. no need to continue the negativity jerk

[sk8poompers]

@XxLokoTreDawqxX No, no, you're right. When my hypothetical Jewish aunt apologized to Hitler he wasn't such a bad guy who's now in heaven.

[XxLokoTreDawqxX]

@sk8poompers ur a dick kid. big pun wasnt hitler nd his wife wasnt jewish. can u stop acting like a white trash dick head now o.O thankz .

[sk8poompers]

@XxLokoTreDawqxX I didn't write that. You should learn how to read my brutha. I'm just saying according to the bible (which I hardly believe in), he's in Hell. No two ways about it. And stop trying to fight with me bro, I won this argument posts ago, now I'm just humoring you.

It's all about the music.

[XxLokoTreDawqxX]

@sk8poompers i've been trying to end this convo a long time ago but u just keep bringing it back. u would be the loser of this argument because i keep trying to end it. as i sed b4, the man is dead, his music is great. even if he is in hell, (which i doubt) his songs are master pieces to rap. so pun was a great rapper, who beat his wife, then apoligized. R.I.P Big Pun, case closed. PLease dont rite back to this. Bye now

[sk8poompers]

@XxLokoTreDawqxX I REALLY REALLY do realize that this is a COMPLETE contradiction, but I guess you just have a peanut sized brain...If you're trying to end the conversation just be the "Bigger Man," and don't.  But that's okay because I don't prejudice against Peanut Heads. Yah lost punk bitch, deal with it. Just becoming very pathetic now. Very, very, very...

[XxLokoTreDawqxX]

@sk8poompers IM obiviously the bigger man here. And do you know how? Because THIS is the last thing im going to say to YOU, AND, it isnt a page long. I'm done wasting my time trying to explain something to you that you dont want to believe. Have a nice life

[krazzyyo2]

@XxLokoTreDawqxX pussy

[XxLokoTreDawqxX]

@krazzyyo2 shut tha fuck up fag. no one asked u to say anything

[krazzyyo2]

@sk8poompers idiot

[darkmurai123]

@feeltherealness isn't full clip by gangstarr?

[feeltherealness]

yeha sorry mistake

[HabibKh]

bitch asss...cho mouf, i used to bein jail , every summer every winter, i was a bad man, a crook a sinner , always fightin, cursing old ladies, used to live in bronx and stole a mercedes, ... motherfucker...i ain't rude, the game is ill

[feeltherealness]

@HabibKh your a gay. publicizing the ill shit youve apparently done, on youtube.

[feeltherealness]

@HabibKh your a faggot. sayin this shit over youtube

[Erixxmr]

@feeltherealness

World is yours aint premo... Pete Rock ripped that yo.

[andremala91]

WHY ISN'T THERE PEE-AN-OH??

[deweze1]

who's that song by? All I know is that it's produced by preemo

[PhilaBul]

Solid list, A few tracks that I'd add are:

"Come Clean" Jeru The Damaja

"Next Level" Showbiz and A.G.

"Suspended in Time" Group Home

"The Best Part" J-Live

all classic premo beats

[ThaRealestRican]

Like it or not idiot! (The real way to spell it) Get Rich or Die Tryin' is a Hip Hop Classic. Dre's production is phenomenal on that album and its 50's most lyrical album to date.

[sjeweettoggg]

Haha riiight, and hip hop was born in the 80's accordin to you right? HAHAHA

[UnreleasedMuuzik]

@sjeweettoggg lol tell him what? I'm on ricans side dummy.

[bruno3030]

hip hop was "almost" born in the 80's...
