Scarface, easily.

I love me some old Ice Cube but I never really got into "It Was A Good Day."

Scarface might have seen a man die but he didn't see the lights of the Good Year blimp (no Ceecee) saying that he was a pimp.

And, anyway, 'Face will probably make it to the final with his verses on "My Mind's Playing Tricks On Me" so it'd be unfair for him to knock a heavyweight like 'Cube out so early in the tournament.

If this would have been up against "Bird in the Hand" or "Ghetto Bird" I would've voted Cube, but it's not, so...

not that "It Was a Good Day" isn't a great song. Cuz it is, so much so that I can understand people picking it here, but the Scarface underappreciation on this board is seriously amazin' (there are like 10 heads on here that really like his music and I'm convinced the rest of you barely know he exists)... I think we need to make a new jack introduction to Scarface mix at some point.

shit this is really tough. went with 'it was a good day' just cause its more epic to the general public, everybody knows the lyrics to that song to the point where its obnoxious, its beyond classic. The dairy's my favorite scarface cd though and 'I seen a man die' is tied for my favorite song. also i think it should be noted that "youll be headed to another place, and the life you used to live will reflect in your mothers face" is actually the hardest thing a person can say.
