man some of those are classics

specially 2pac.

respect.

neways it looks good, i haven't seen some of them.

[Pitbul]

one of my all time favorite songs of the late 90's is Dr Dre's, Still Dre that beat is addictive

[swarnel]

yeah dre all the way

[marine_aart]

forgot about dre?
or maybe criminal (from eminem) that song ownzzz

[Pitbul]

50 Cent "50 Bars"
50 Cent "Be A Gentleman" <Very Good
50 Cent "Corner Bodega"

[soopaman]

Nas - NY State Of Mind

Mobb Deep - Shook Ones Pt. II

Notorious BIG - Kick In The Door/10 Crack Commandments

Wu-Tang Clan - C.R.E.A.M

Paris - Conspiracy Of Silence

Get these on your CD - Z. :ph34r:

[Z]

thanks guys&#33; honestly tho, of those you guys selected, ive only heard the ones by dre&#33; oh well...

MORE MORE&#33;&#33; :D

ok, and could you suggest which ones i should scrap? :P

[marine_aart]

scrap outcast B.O.B. I hate that song :angry:



:rolleyes: :blink:

[kAb]

i think its..

MOP - Ante Up

good song

[Z]

B.O.B. is definitely staying. that is one of the best songs of the past few years. :D

i think welcome 2 atlanta should go? its good, but ive heard it too much. :huh:

[Pitbul]

those three of 50&#39;s old shit u have to keep i think there better then alot of songs on his newest Album

[Z]

im not comparing to his newest album. im comparing to the classic hits. :P

[HankusDankus]

Damn man y&#39;all are forgettin about the retired DMX he was definately 90&#39;s

[TRshady]

I reckon you can do better then "my name is", go for "If I get locked up tonight". Probably eminem&#39;s best ever song, california love is also an absolute classic.

[Z]

fat joe hustlin is gone for good. its 2001 (fast and the furious).
how bout grindin&#39;??

[Skillian]

You gotta have KRS-One "Sound Of Da Police" - a true classic.

Grindin&#39; definitely doesn&#39;t have that classic status for me. It&#39;s soundin&#39; like a good CD man, I might do a copy for myself :D

[Z]

crazy world is gone too. good song, but last year&#39;s.

i&#39;ll check out krs-ones

grindin is gone too. too new. (btw, if i get locked is not goin in)

ok now how bout the beatnuts w/ dead prez - look around. tight song.

10. SugarHill Gang - Rappers&#39; Delight

Is this the original version or the DEF SQUAD remake?? Both are good though.

7. ODB - Got Your Money

Nope. Not good enough. Better songs on his 1st solo album. Try "Shimmy Shimmy Ya" or "Cuttin&#39; Headz".

4. Biggie - Hypnotize

Not his strongest tune. "Juicy" or "One More Chance Remix" are much better. What sort of overall sound are you going for on this CD? Not wanting to sound too critical but it seems a bit commercial. What about Scarface&#39;s "The Wall"??

Hope you decide soon. :D

[Rollin_On_Dubs420]

kardinal sucks dick
im canadian and i cant stand anything that comes out of here
northern touch was pry the best song ive heard out of canada

Gangstarr - The Piecemaker
Wu Tang - Shaolin Worldwide
Eazy-E - Cock Tha 9

im not sure about a &#39;classic&#39; 90&#39;s mix but these songs are good
i didnt put up much shit cause you got a pretty fruity taste
nothin too bad on your list but nothin great(exept pac>but those songs are played out to me)
keep that odb song (i own that CD and ill put it in just for that song)
shimmy shimmy ya isnt good by any means(just repeats like 10x)
and definately keep big L(but he does have better songs but ebonics is top 3or4)

[Rollin_On_Dubs420]

ohh
I got a mojor classic
2Pac, Biggie, Big L - Deadly Combination

suck on deez :sorcerer:

[Z]

ok.

soopaman - rapper&#39;s delight is not the original. its the remake, which is much better (and shorter, phew). :P
im keepin hypnotize, even though it is played out. got your money still not sure.
and yes, it does sound commercial, right? thats was i was goin for here. not too much gangsta stuff here, just all the old party tunes, ya know? ahh, memories.

rollin - kardinal is the shit. dont diss it. whatchu mean fruity taste?&#33; you said the tunes were good&#33; :lol:
also, yeah i thought about deadly combination. one of the safest songs ever, but its not goin in here.

im out.

edit: survival of the fittest? shook ones? pt.2? what you think?

[marine_aart]

isnt coolio, gangsters paradise a clasic??? (I liked the weird al yankovic remix more though :rolleyes: )

[Semmi]

U definetly should chek out that song :
Copywrite F. Smut Peddlers - Tower Of Babble

that song is like a ghost and after you listen to it, it will haunt you rest of your life&#33;

also absolute classic :
GangStarr feat.Big Shug & Freddie Foxxx - Militia (Freddie Foxxx&#39;s verse has got the best lines ever wrote in rap history in my mind)

all time classic :
Wu-Tang Clan - Protect Ya Neck (not the jump off, but original from the Enter The Wu-Tang... album) - scrap your ODB&#39;s song and put that to your list&#33;
those are my favourites&#33;

[Z]

ok can you guys recommend more mainstream titles? maybe something big that ive forgotten? i dont want so much gangsta stuff on this disc, even tho some of its pretty good. (ie hit em up).

[soopaman]

Handsome Boy Modelling School - The Projects. It&#39;s not that old but a good party tune. Funky bassline&#33;&#33; :D

[Z]

thanks.

bump.
