    Number Two:

    Track three on his classic 1991 album, Death Certificate.
    Another example of great storytelling, he details a tale of traveling to St. Louis due to the police cracking down on the d--- dealers back in L.A. to continue their operation.

    Honorable mentions:
    You Can't Fade Me
    You Can Do It
    A Gangsta's Fairytale
    I Wanna k--- Sam
    Hello
    Gotta Be Insanity
    Gangsta Rap Made Me Do It
    Hood Mentality
    Jackin For Beats
    Sic Them Youngins On Em
    Down For Whatever​

    After this I was thinking of making a similar thread for an old school rapper that's highly regarded but isn't discussed very often and I was curious who would be interested in that.

    Hand of the dead body and summer vacation are classics, scar face and cube could have made a classic duo like dre and snoop

    Number one:
    I'll be honest, my top pick has changed more than a dozen times since I originally wrote it. A couple days ago I managed to pick two songs, When Will They s---t and this. After listening to them back to back extensively, I've decided to settle on Dead Homiez from his 1990 EP, k--- At Will

    Over a somber beat apparently made by Cube himself, Cube reminisces about all the friends he's lost.
    I remember we painted our names on the wall for fun
    Now it's "Rest in Peace" after every one

    Except me, but I ain't the one to front
    Seems like I'm viewin' a body after every month

    :mjcry:

    Thank you for participating in this. Before I mentioned wanting to do a similar list for another artist whom gets overlooked a lot. That artist is Ice-T. I already compiled a rough draft of a list.
    If you want to be mentioned for that as well, let me know since I really like doing stuff like this. It helps keep my mind off other s--- that's going on.

    Good choice. Prob not my number one but then I don't think I'd ever be able to do a top 10. Cube has music for every mood, which is what I love about it. My favourites change every day.

    I do love when will they s---t though. Or pretty much any song from the Predator. I lobe how when will they s---t comes in off the intro.
