The greatest rap ever?

What is the criteria...or is it just YOUR favorite rap of all time? One can say that Rappers Delight is the greatest of all time, since it started it all.

Krayzie Bone's last sentence on Spit yo game, its amazing how he delivers the "tongue twister" so fast and in one breathe ..complete skill right there....

"Niggas aint ready for this one, cuz I'm on a mission to get even/
Better believe it, I'm heavily heated/
Its easy to see me, and if u tryin ta see me, let that be the reason!"
 
Rappers I monkey flip em with the funky rhythm I be kickin
Musician, inflictin composition
of pain I'm like Scarface sniffin cocaine
Holdin a M-16, see with the pen I'm extreme, now
Bulletholes left in my peepholes
I'm suited up in street clothes
Hand me a nine and I'll defeat foes
Y'all know my steelo with or without the airplay
I keep some E&J, sittin bent up in the stairway
Or either on the corner bettin Grants with the celo champs
Laughin at baseheads, tryin to sell some broken amps
G-Packs get off quick, forever niggaz talk shit
Remeniscing about the last time the Task Force flipped
Niggaz be runnin through the block shootin
Time to start the revolution, catch a body head for Houston
Once they caught us off guard, the Mac-10 was in the grass and
I ran like a cheetah with thoughts of an assassin
Pick the Mac up, told brothers, "Back up," the Mac spit
Lead was hittin niggaz one ran, I made him backflip
Heard a few chicks scream my arm shook, couldn't look
Gave another squeeze heard it click yo, my shit is stuck
Try to cock it, it wouldn't shoot now I'm in danger
Finally pulled it back and saw three bullets caught up in the chamber
So now I'm jetting to the building lobby
and it was filled with children probably couldn't see as high as I be
(So whatchu sayin?) It's like the game ain't the same
Got younger niggaz pullin the triggers bringing fame to they name
and claim some corners, crews without guns are goners
In broad daylight, stickup kids, they run up on us
Fo'-fives and gauges, Macs in fact
Same niggaz'll catch a back to back, snatchin yo' cracks in black
There was a snitch on the block gettin niggaz knocked
So hold your stash until the coke price drop
I know this crackhead, who said she gotta smoke nice rock
And if it's good she'll bring ya customers in measuring pots, but yo
You gotta slide on a vacation
Inside information keeps large niggaz erasin and they wives basin
It drops deep as it does in my breath
I never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death
Beyond the walls of intelligence, life is defined
I think of crime when I'm in a New York state of mind
 
Can I tell a quick Nas story?

When I was like 17, Nas' I Am came out. I stopped paying attention to rap at that time. So one day my friends and I took the subway to see an ECW show in Queens. There were posters for Nas' CD all over the terminal and in the E and F trains. Well, later on I realized that somebody took out a white paint marker and wrote "a gold plated ******" after the album's title on nearly all of the posters. And his hand writing matched the posters' 100%.

So, for nearly a month, I thought Nas's follow up album was called, "Nas is...a gold plated ******". By 1999, I fell out of love with hip hop and really didn't think much of it. That was the same year that ODB put out ***** Please. It seemed unlikely that Nas would resort to such a dumb album title, but man those posters were convincing.
