Dell's Presents Hip Hop's Masterpiece Theater of Lyricism

[dell71]

This is a thread in which I will present, for your listening pleasure, hip hop songs which I feel are lyrical masterpieces. They may not be hits...they may not have the best tracks...but the rhymes are undoubtedly fierce. Some will be old, some more recent.

If a song has to have "a hot beat", a catchy chorus or be a "club banger" for you to enjoy don't bother with this thread.

If you just want to hear an emcee...

an emcee...

AN MC...

not a rapper...

completely destroy a microphone,

welcome home.


We'll start here...
