Mystikal's "Bouncin' Back" has always been my favorite.


A recent fave has been Chad's "Beastin" on E-40's album.

I'm still discovering song from their catalog til this day, I had a feeling I would due to the amount of work they put out in early 2000. There are definitely songs that stand out here and there that were hard to miss when they came out.

LL Cool J - Luv U Better reminds me of the summer of 2003 in NYC
Jay-Z - Give It To Me, Change Clothes (reminds me of Junior's "Mama Use To Say)
Scarface - Someday
The Clipse - Grindin
Jay-Z - Excuse Me Miss
O.D.B. - Got Your Money
Tha Liks - Best U Can was alright, seemed like a simple track compared to their other work.

Personal fave singles not mentioned yet :

Ma$e - Lookin' At Me
Fabolous - Holla Back
Fam Lay ft. Pharrell - Da Beeper Record
ODB - Got Your Money
ODB w/ The Clipse - Operator
Snoop - From Tha Chuuch To Da Palace
Snoop w/ Pharrell - Drop It Like It's Hot
Busta w/ MOP & Rah Digga - Call The Ambulance remix
Baby w/ The Clipse - What Happened To That Boy?

That Zock On joint they hooked up for Nigo's vanity group The Teriaki Boyz in their one song per album deal in return for the BBC line was a banger, but obviously totally wasted on anyone Japanese who isn't Takagi Dan.

Some non-single personal faves :

Fam Lay - Skrung Out
Black Rob - Business Never Personal
Mystikal - Jump
Harlem World w/ Ma$e - One Big Fiesta
Philly's Most Wanted - Suckas
The Clipse w/ Fabolous - Comedy Central
The Clipse w/ Rosco P Coldchain - Chinese New Year

Great pop shit :

N-Sync w/ Nelly - Girlfriend
Britney - Slave 4 U
Usher - U Don't Have To Call
Beyonce - Work It Out (the only good post-Destiny's Child song she's made)

Fuck JT because all the 'Tunes beats he was the recipient of should've gone to JC Chasez, who was the real star of N-Sync.

'Grindin' is probably their best. Heres some others:

Clipse 'Virginia' and 'Im Not You'

Jadakiss 'Knock Yourself Out' (originally used on that 1st Clipse album that got shelved)

Phillys Most Wanted 'Cross The Border' remix - it sounds like a Neptunes take on the 'All About The Benjamins' beat.

NERD 'Lapdance' (more specifically the bootleg I have using Cutty Ranks 'The Stopper' acapella that makes the beat sound tougher)

:ohsh: Fuck yeah. I'm not a fan of E-40 (his flow at the beginning is crazy weird) but the beat fucking bangs and the hook is nice.

"dad just walked in on me having a line!..........i said IL BE BEASTIN!" :rofl:
Resolved Question
Does Biggie Smalls hate HipHop???

"Shoulda been a cop, Fukc Hiphop"

I've been wondering what he meant by this.
Additional Details
Rap sucks, HipHop is better

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters
Naw, he likes hip hop and rap. He was just referring to if he hadn't started rapping he would've been a cop.
So he's cursing it, not that he doesn't like it, just for the sake of it.

that snoop beat off of the star trek comp for "blows my mind" is a monster

grindin, mr me too, give it to me, what happened to that boy, southern hospitality, recognize (off of ODB's second album), Ninja Please (Jay w Young Chris), Blue Magic, and Popular Demand would be the other ones that stick out to me.

didn't realize how much stuff these guys had done over the years. impressive shit

Fam-Lay's "Git Busy" has been a recent favorite of mine, personally. I'd post a YouTube video of it, but I'm dumb and can't make it post properly.

"Rump Shaker" and SWV's "Right Here" are also great in a nostalgic kind of way.

They ghost produced the original track, not the Human Nature remix. Pharrell rapped on the original remix, and they sample his "s..double...u...v" from that verse on the Human Nature remix.
