Best Hip Hop Verse of all time?

#1
Real Talk,

What comes to mind when you think "best Hip Hop Verse of all time" and why? I got a couple

2pac's 3rd verse on Lord Knows, the emotion was always there with Pac, and he could tell a story too....

One-time! One-time!
Fuck the five-oh cause they after me
Kill me if they could, I'll never let em capture me
Done lost too many niggaz to this gangbangin
Homies died in my arms, with his brains hangin, fucked up!
I had to tell him it was alright, and that's a lie
and he knew it when he shook and died, my God

Even though I know I'm wrong man
Hennesey make a nigga think he strong, man (heh heh)
I can't sleep, so I stay up, don't wanna fuck them bitches
Try to calm me down, I ain't givin up
I'm gettin lost in the weed, man, gettin high
Livin everday, like I'm gon' die (gon' die, gon' die)
I smoke a blunt to take the pain out, and if I wasn't high
probably try to blow my brains out
Lord knows...

......and again from MATW (best pac album) second verse off the title track

With all this extra stressin'
The question I wonder is after death I feel my last breath
When will I finally get to rest from this oppression?
They punish the people that's askin questions
And those that possess
Steal from the ones without possessions
The message I stress
To make it stop study your lessons
Don't settle for less
Even the genius asks questions, be grateful for blessings
Don't ever change
Keep your essence
The power's in the people and the politics we address
Always do your best
Don't let this pressure make ya panic and when ya get stranded
And things don't go the way ya planned it
Dreaming of riches
In a position of makin' a difference
Politicians are hypocrites
They don't wanna listen
If I'm insane
It's the fame made a brother change
It wasn't nothin' like the game
It's just me against the world

.......and Bun B on "Murder" can't beleive i forgot about that shit...i constantly have that on reply

Well this Bun-B bitch and I'm the king
I'm movin' chickens got 'em finger lickin'
Stickin' nigga's who be trippin'
You need a swift kickin' yo azz is right for the
pickin'
Now down as my pocket's stickin'
I be thinkin' nigga's slippin' you sick
When I be clickin' now take a look at the
Bigger nigga Marl liquor swigger
Playa hata ditch digger figure
My hair trigger you bound one hot one in yo liver
You shiver shake and quiver
I'm free from nigga you wetter den a river
For what it's worth it's suburblous some nigga's doin'
dirt
Fuck her first and take off her skirt
Make the pussy hurt Mister Master
Hit the Swisha faster then you keep a
Blister bastard fuck her sister faster
Hit the elbro for sale yo
Brother better have my mail hoe
Before I catch a murder case and go to jail hoe
Hell no, time to bail hit the trail so
We can sell mo fuckin' yell get the scale
No other bullet duck or get shoved
Inside this game they better buck us
Cuz the clucker's they love us
Make them class dick suckers
Check they jelly like smoker's
I hit like nun-chuckers
Cuz Short Texas bring the rukus
This for my muthfucker's
Cookin' cheese to crooked geez
Rockin' up quarter key's
Just to get the hook with ease
Wanna bee's get on yo knee's
Fill the squeeze from them HK one three's
>From here to over sea's
We do what we please
No trip cuz we flip
Light up a dip
I'm breakin' 'em off from they hip to yo lip
Go ask that boy Skip
That nigga Bun rip
With one clip, soon as the gun slip
Now I done ripped out my Barile
Flyin' through yo belly belly and
Some smelly red jelly is drippin' out of ya belly
Servin' 'em like a Deli jumped on my cellular telli
Hoe sell it like it's goin' out of style
You can't see me Marcus so have a
Motherfuckin' Sweet and smile

I think my favorites are AZ's verse on Life's a Bitch, and Inspectah Deck's on Triumph. I'm sure there are more, but those two come to my head immediately.

This has to win hands down, Soulja Boy killed it on this one yo

LOL smiley face, LOL smiley face
Soulja boy Tell'Em bae, LOL smiley face
Babygirl sent a picture to my Blackberry
She fine and she thick just like Halle Berry (well damn)
Kiss me thru the fone, LOL smiley face
We can go and kick it bae, later on at my place
She messaged me on myspace, told me she love me
She textin' my phone 4:30 in the morning,
"baby I'm horny, I wanna kiss you"
I can put it on ya, that's not an issue
She scratchin' my back, screamin' out I'm hers
She text my phone said, "I need your love"
I met her Monday, last week in the club
One week later, now she tellin' me that she in love, HA


Seriously tho, I agree with you on the MATW verse, and this I think is one of the best

Now I'm lost and I'm weary, so many tears
I'm suicidal, so don't stand near me
My every move is a calculated step, to bring me closer
to embrace an early death, now there's nothin left
There was no mercy on the streets, I couldn't rest
I'm barely standin, bout to go to pieces, screamin peace
And though my soul was deleted, I couldn't see it
I had my mind full of demons tryin to break free
They planted seeds and they hatched, sparkin the flame
inside my brain like a match, such a dirty game
No memories, just a misery
Paintin a picture of my enemies killin me, in my sleep
Will I survive til the mornin, to see the sun
Please Lord forgive me for my sins, cause here I come...

I dont think theres another rapper who can make you feel their emotions as much as Pac

After all those years I still love Method Man's verse on "The Turn". It's an incredibly underrated track imo. While honestly, these lyrics are not deep since it's a track about everything and nothing at all but the way they flow is epic to me:

I don't think there's a "best verse ever". I guess it's different for everyone and changes with time.

I always loved the 2nd MATW verse and So Many Tears verse posted here, but one lyric that I'm really feeling lately, maybe cuz my life is kind of that way, is Guru's Moment of Truth

Sometimes you gotta dig deep, when problems come near
Don`t fear things get severe for everybody everywhere
Why do bad things happen, to good people?
Seems that life is just a constant war between good and evil
The situation that I`m facin, is mad amazin
to think such problems can arise from minor confrontations
Now I`m contemplatin in my bedroom pacin
Dark clouds over my head, my heart`s racin
Suicide? Nah, I`m not a foolish guy
Don`t even feel like drinking, or even gettin high
Cause all that`s gonna do really, is accelerate
the anxieties that I wish I could alleviate
But wait, I`ve been through a whole lot of other shit, before
So I oughta be able, to withstand some more
But I`m sweatin though, my eyes are turnin red and yo
I`m ready to lose my mind but instead I use my mind
I put down the knife, and take the bullets out my nine
My only crime, was that I`m too damn kind
And now some skanless motherf**kers wanna take what`s mine
But they can`t take the respect, that I`ve earned in my lifetime
And you know they`ll never stop the furious force of my rhymes
So like they say, every dog has it`s day
And like they say, God works in a mysterious way
So I pray, remembering the days of my youth
As I prepare to meet my moment of truth

.. too hard for me personally.. to chose just one verse. I Cant even chose one song, or one album, or even one artist for god sakes.
truuee... i was thinking that as i was typing my initial post...

so its safe to say this thread is about the best VERSES of all time :D
agreed.

ima just post dope verses then lol

I see mothers in black cryin, brothers in packs dyin
Plus everybody's high, too doped up to ask why
Watchin our own downfall, witness the end
It's like we don't believe in God cause we livin in sin
I asked my homie on the block why he strapped, he laughed
Pointed his pistol as the cop car passed and blast
It's just another murder, nobody mourns no more
My tear drops gettin bigger but can't figure what I'm cryin for
Is it the miniature caskets, little babies
Victims of a stray, from drug dealers gone crazy
Maybe it's just the drugs, visions of how the block was
Crack came and it was strange how it rocked us
Perhaps the underlyin fact they hide explain genocide
It's when we ride on our own kind
What is it we all fear, reflections in the mirror
We can't escape fate, the end is gettin nearer

Can't close my eyes cause all I see is terror
I hate the man in the mirror
Cause his reflection makes the pain turn realer
Times of Armageddeon, murder in mass amounts
In this society where only gettin the cash counts
I started out as a beginner
Entered the criminal lifestyle became a sinner
I make my money and vacate, evade prison
Went from the chosen one to outcast, unforgiven
And all the Hennessy and weed can't hide, the pain I feel inside
You know, it's like I'm livin just to die
I fall on my knees and beg for mercy, not knowin if I'm worthy
Livin life thinkin no man can hurt me
So I'm askin -- before I lay me down to sleep
Before you judge me, look at all the shit you did to me, my misery
I rose up from the slums, made it out the flames
In my search for fame will I change? I'm askin

Come and follow me hollow point snub slug Pullin' me body underground
Put 'em in the grave they lay away down Claire player stay down
I'm one ah the thuggest muthaFUCKAS in yo city,
Under me strap packed ride ready me pap pap in broad daylight
You wid me roll well roll till the Bone drop hit that hydro
Thats the way we deal that's the way we steal Well I really keep that high on
My mind fried, Ride to the darkside feel the darkness
East ninety nine, mine the thugs I luvs 'em heartless
Yeah follow me now ride ride follow me commit some
You can run but won't escape alive, So many tried but died
^ i love that bizzy verse

Who do you believe in is dope as hell both verses are great


It got me thinking again, its crazy how pac had this 2 personas inside him, this lyrics are dope and pictured a confused, yet a good mind and spirit, this part stands out and point that clearly for me:

Can't close my eyes cause all I see is terror
I hate the man in the mirror
Cause his reflection makes the pain turn realer
Times of Armageddeon, murder in mass amounts

I make my money and vacate, evade prison

Theres to many good verses to say the best but whoever sed MATW is best pac album has that right by far but this verse popped into my head when you said best...lyrical that isss

i just dont give a fuck- eminem

I'm Nicer than Pete, but I'm on a Serch to crush a Miilkbone
I'm Everlast-ing, I melt Vanilla Ice like silicone
I'm ill enough to just straight up diss you for no reason
I'm colder than snow season when it's twenty below freezin
Flavor with no seasonin, this is the sneak preview
I'll diss your magazine and still won't get a weak review
I'll make your freak leave you, smell the Folgers crystals
This is a lyrical combat, gentlemen hold your pistols
But I form like Voltron and blast you with my shoulder missiles
Slim Shady, Eminem was the old initials (Bye-bye!)
Extortion, snortin, supportin abortion
Pathological liar, blowin shit out of proportion
The looniest, zaniest, spontaneous, sporadic
Impulsive thinker, compulsive drinker, addict
Half animal, half man
Dumpin your dead body inside of a fuckin trash can
With more holes than an Afghan

Always liked this in Startin trough my rearview

- Heavenly Father I'm a soldier, I'm gettin hotter
cause the world's gettin colder


Hard to pic one but for right now its Pacs verse in "The good died young"

It was more than a tragedy
Emotions be grabbin' me
Plane fell from the sky
We tryin' to figure what happened
Burnin' churches, fearin' God
Who can be so cruel
We all ignorant to AIDS
Till it happens to you
Just be a man, make plans
Listen to your voice
A woman's tryin' to make decisions
We should leave them a choice
Cause who are we to say who lives and die
Breathes and stops
All this judgement on other lives
Needs to stop
What are we livin' for
Givin' more back than takin'
On my knees still waitin' for my own salvation
Now I feel abandoned
cause Pat Bucanan say I'm greedy
You can take my taxes, send me to war
But can't feed me
It's so easy to regret things
After they done
Babies catchin' murder cases
Scared to laugh in the sun
The tragedies that we all need
Love in doses
In times like these we feel closest
The good die young


Check out this video and you will know what i mean..
