[fantomsanja]

80-99's was the best music ever human made!

[SKillitFish]

so my favorite generation is the gangsta rap era with eazy n dre but if eazy never came into the game and all rap was just like the 80s, i would have been completely cool with that :))

[toontownsalty98]

Define: "Real Music"

[Thatsallido06]

[airtioteclint]

Rodney O and Joe Cooley?

[ldawgg11]

first let me say thanks for taking the time to do and post this .... awesome ... i do think you missed alot of worthy songs ( criminal mind and poetry don"t make the list ???) think you went safe with your #1 pick ... i would have went with " i know you got soul " .. any hip-hop song that make billboards 50 greatest songs deserves better than a #62 ranking... thats just me.... let the debate begin and lets hear it for HIP - HOP ..................

[SoSnoMusic]

watch?v=9B1GOLnauuY

Thanks, So Sno

[mssquirrely]

Awesome Post !! My FAVS.....Eric B & Rakim, Kool Moe Dee, Big Daddy Kane, Super Sonic, EPMD, PE, Easy E, The old Queen Latifah (lol), Doug E Fresh, NWA, the old LL, Rob Base, Self Destruction, BDP, DeLaSoul, Whodini, Marley Marl, Kurtis Blow, Run DMC, Slick Rick, Grand Master Flash, Sugar Hill Gang, Planet Rock....Just to name a few...lol !! R.I.P. Rap

[mattbartnick]

i cant believe every Rakim and Eric B song aint in the top ten. stupid list!

[jemiedub]

@mattbartnick

the message and planet rock were more groundbreaking

but i miss eric b is president / my melody in the top ten and not mc hammer :)

[DJMurderOne]

@jemiedub hammer earned his way on the list. just not that high. agree my melody and eric b is president, both better than joy and pain by rob base

[gtrfan704]

I think this should be labeled the best rap of the 80's, 90's, and 00's cause the shit now-a-days sucks.

[TheSnowyDrake]

Raps dead.

[MsRedero]

@theshakter - agreed!

[theshakter]
