'Stan' is the best rap single released in my lifetime.

1988.

Discuss.

But Pan, try to understand
That I do want you as a fan

PancakeBrah · 10-05-2013, 12:50 AM

You're a great swag and flow writer, a good battler, and you coast on personality for boarding rep. It's all love, though.

PancakeBrah · 10-05-2013, 12:52 AM

'A Milli' is close, though.

Neighbor · 10-05-2013, 12:52 AM

*kisses*

But on a serious note, I think "Sing For The Moment" is probably the best rap single of our generation

Certain · 10-05-2013, 12:52 AM

The best rap track ever was released as a single in your lifetime.

But for commercial appeal, I go with OutKast always.

Untold · 10-05-2013, 12:55 AM

i hate even admitting this, but Nas's Illmatic is his best work, EVER.

PancakeBrah · 10-05-2013, 12:56 AM

CERTAIN YOU FAGGOTORIUM, I'M TALKING ABOUT POPULAR SINGLES.

I should edit the title to say 'popular' or 'well heard' or 'well known' or 'mainstream' singles.

Now that I think of it, BOB is up there too.

I hate to be that dude, but late 90's hip hop was so fucking dope. And I know I'm just saying that because I grew up on it. There will be text boards in 2020 opining for the glory days of Macklemore and ASAP.

Andre 3000's verse on "B.O.B." makes me want to run through a wall and never write another rap verse again.

Untold · 10-05-2013, 12:58 AM

oh good LORD Outkast is the best hip-hop duo EVER

For real, though?

'Sing for the Moment' is a good song. 'Stan' is a great song that actually became popular as fuck. Can't see that, bro.

This. It makes me sick that he's so fucking good.

Untold must be one of those people who never got to talk about rap with his friends growing up because they all liked Regina Spektor instead.

true. all this is true

PancakeBrah · 10-05-2013, 01:02 AM

If you don't get hype as fuck when this comes on and can't repeat every word to this song when it comes on I can't hang with you. Fucking insane.

People think B.O.B. caused the internet era and shit. Good, no great, song. But it's not OutKast's Top 3 singles with effect in my life, though. The video did a lot to help, too.

Untold · 10-05-2013, 01:04 AM

A Milli was raw but i don't know if it was one of the best songs to me

i'll have to look back at this a few years from now

I think it's pretty obvious Eminem made Internet rap a thing. There's no question the titular Stan posted at RapMusic.com.

I can see what you mean about "B.O.B." My favorite OutKast songs are "Synthesizer," "Rosa Parks" and "Babylon." But "B.O.B." is pretty fucking perfect.
