Ahh yes, good choices mr. ryan. "hello new world" is straight nasty. "if hustlin' is a must, be sosa not tony.."

i would also add:

"hollywood divorce" - outkast
"that's life" - killer mike
"game theory" - the roots
"what you know" - ti
"ding!" - royce da 5'9"

i like these songs.

Someone help! There's a song the NCSU men's bball team plays as they're warming up. It's hip hop, has a guy rapping (kinda) and some Indian dude chanting (kinda) in the background.

Thanks in advance!

"Ghostface - The Champ"

1/10/2007 11:36:09 PM

Nope, those aren't it. This is frustrating! I can hear the song in my head, but have no idea what it is

1/11/2007 7:27:35 AM

DANGERDOOM - Korn Dogz

1/11/2007 7:43:56 AM

cant believe I left the method man slot open

Method Man - Things they say with Lauryn Hill (Got to have it is second)
Petey Pablo - Stick up man
Nas - Carry on Tradition
Snoop - Imagine

1/11/2007 7:46:11 AM

maybe it's just me, but i thought that "things they say" song was just about meth's worst song ever. it's just meth complaining about his critics, with little fire, over a boring beat and boring hook. i mean, that's just my opinion, but i wonder how many times people will listen to that song a year from now. of course, i like "stuntin' like my daddy" as one of my favorites of '06, so who am i to really judge?
