Perfection ft. Snoop Dogg - Understand Perfection (1992)



When Snoop said "Perfection is perfected so I'ma let 'em understand" on Nuthin' But A "G" Thang he was referring to this pre-The Chronic underground song he'd appeared on. A jam 4 real.

Mic Terror - If God Was Mic (2008)



One of Mic Terror's best songs. Slick Rick tier songwriting.

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

3 great old songs I discovered last year:

39 Posse - Got What It Takes To Make It (1991)



One of KLC's earliest productions by his old group. Second Line brass × Bob James Mardi Gras bells.

Mac Dre - Doin' What I Do (2001)



Mac Dre's discography is so deep that you can always find a song you've missed.

Field Mob - At The Park (2006)



Incredible Country Rap. How was this not a single?

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

Homeliss Derilex - Fuck You! (1993)



Best Fuck You song in Rap history imho.

Andre Nickatina - Nickatina Says (2000)



Nickatina slap classico I'd totally slept on until recently.

[Gyangsta 4 Life]

All these years I thought Andre Nickatina was some Anticon / Jay Seagraves type ish.

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

Andre Nickatina aka the artist formerly known as Dre Dog!

Dre Dog - Smoke Dope and Rap (1993)

Rich Boy - All I Know (2011)



Beautiful song. Rich Boy & Supa Villain were as good a combination as Rich Boy & Polow Da Don. R.I.P Supa Villain.

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

Mysonne - In Jail (2011)



R.I.P Prince Markie Dee from the Fat Boys. This is the best Fat Boys beatjack of the past 10 years, and by far Mysonne's best song.

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

Digital Underground - Tie The Knot (1991)



2 main reasons why Digital Underground were THE shit: their music was so damn funky and there isn't another Rap group on Earth who could have come up with some of their songs

Also, a sick Shock G remix for Prince I only discovered last year:

Prince - Love Sign (Shock G's Silky Remix) (1998)

[admiral]

I've always loved this homage to Eazy-E's No More Questions

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

^^ So tru.

DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince - Nightmare On My Street (1988)



This video finally turning up online after being banned for 30 years made me very happy. Legitimately one of the greatest Rap videos of all time.

[Gyangsta 4 Life]

Mysonne - In Jail (2011)



R.I.P Prince Markie Dee from the Fat Boys. This is the best Fat Boys beatjack of the past 10 years, and by far Mysonne's best song.

Sheesh! This is great.
Whatever happened to the Fat Boys tho. I heard they broke up.

5th Ward Weebie - Supa Sunday In N.O (2003)



Love this song so much. I've never been to a Supa Sunday In New Orleans but this song paints such a vivid picture of what goes down, it makes me feel like I have.

R.I.P Weebie, natch.

[Gyangsta 4 Life]

^Video not available on YouTube for me unfortunately.

“Let Me Find Out” tho Donell Jones “Where I Wanna Be” type chords playing on the hook takes it the next level imo.

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

^^ A classic. Remix with Snoop & Juvenile was good too.

Another Weebie fave on the R&Bounce tip:

5th Ward Weebie ft. S 8ighty & Ya Boy Big Choo - Club Luv (2016)



O.G R&Bounce classic:

Dolamite - Hustlas (1995)

[Yohan]

Man I miss Weebie. He could've made a classic song in every decade until he turned 90.

After Let Me Find Out, which is one of my personal favourites from the last decade, I think my favourite of his would be this one:

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

^^ Yeah, that's peak Real Instruments™ Rap innit?

Greg Nice - Set It Off (1994)



A minor classic which should be a major classic. I want to live in a world where this is as big a choon as Dwyck.

[Philaflava]

I wish he dropped a solo back then. This was produced by Salaam Remi I believe.

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

Indeed it was. A good combination (™Positive K )

Lord Sear - Ya Mouth Stink (2000)



Real headz know this is Lord Sear's best song. Funky on so many levels

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

R.I.P Black Rob Bad Boy's 2nd best rapper/songwriter after Biggie.

Black Rob - Permanent Scars (2003)



Black Rob - Help Me Out (2005)

Homeboy Sandman - Conjugal Visit To The Prison Of The Mind (2014)



A rollerskating jam of old by Sandman which recently got a video.

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

Phil Blunts - On The Attack (1996)



Yonkers minor classic. Never knew this had a video.

HBSM is in my top 10 all time. Overall catalog is consistently flames on flames on fire out the mercury volcano in an air fryer on the sun with the car windows up at the Walmart parking lot.
