One of the biggest diss tracks in history, Nas gave unleashed all his energy into his diss towards Jay-Z. This was the response to Jay's 'Takeover' towards Nas, (and Mobb Deep).
He and Jay may have collabed five or so times together but the beef will always part of their history. This is known as one of the hardest hitting disses in Hip-Hop history.
Can-I-Bus's beastly iconic diss that officially kicked off his beef with LL Cool J. The song was so hard that even Mike Tyson made a cameo!

The West Coast giants, N.W.A.'s hit to their recently departed member, Ice Cube, who left the group to experiment with his solo career. The song is amazing and contains one of MC Ren's most impressive performances in terms of flow and delivery.

Em's 2002 purposely corny but catchy diss towards Canibus.
Snoop's cruisy diss to the infamous, Suge Knight and his record label, Death Row Records, after disagreements while Snoop was signed to them.
