Most Lyrical Rap Song
The song whose lyrics, were terrifically done and great to listen to.The Top Ten
A lot of people believe Eminem is overrated, but they often admit that this is a great song. I personally like his later music as well, but people for some reason tend to go all hipster on it and talk about how stuff before 2005 is so much better, so here you have it, the greatest rap song off all time.
Best Rap song ever. First rap song to win an Oscar award and it also won grammy awards for best solo performance and for best song.
HE SHOWS HOW LYRICAL HE IS WITH 'LOSE YOURSELF' PROVIDING LINE AFTER LINE DEMOLITION COMPETITION, WITH MULTI SYLLABIC RYHMING SKILLS THAT don't STOP ONCE IN THE WHOLE SONG
White People Gonna White People. This song is not the most lyrical of all time. It's not even Eminem's most lyrical song. You culture vultures are irrelevant and have the Rap IQ of a damp mop. The clown who cited awards like Grammy's is the prime example of a clueless white biased idiot. Awards/Sales have no place in quality review of hip hp culture, a culture to which you do not and never will belong. - SAMOKiiNG
Holdin' an M-16, see with the pen I'm extreme
Now, bullet holes left in my peep holes
I'm suited up with street clothes
Hand me A.9 and I'll defeat foes
Y'all know my steelo
With or without the airplay
Nas is the Greatest Rapper of All Time, I don't know why, but when I listen to Nas, I feel that everyone other rapper is just massively overrated and that the people who think those rappers are the best don't know rap and are just biased...
Eminem isn't even that nice...especially compared to NaS.
I never sleep cause sleep is the cousin of death.
Such a masterpiece, beautiful and disgusting at the same time.
Incredible word choice, flow and lyricism in general. A masterfully told story with deep subliminal and direct meaning.
Tells a great story, amazing putting the words so brilliantly together like this - roblist
It's in my opinion the best story to be told in a song and it's the lyrics that paint this picture in your head.
Best song ever... Em is Em... but Nas did it pure... no other song is on par with this
This song is genius,
The best ever to do it better
One mic 11th seriously, it should be second to stan not 11th what are yaw'll smoking
Great wordplay, flow and concept... And also truelly lyricised... His best track and possibly his third most lyrical (after "Heartbeat" and "1st, 2nd and 3rd") -
Lit.. That's it
Absolutely The Very Best Haha:-)
The alliteration and imagery in this? Talk about poetry, this is it.
cool
I'm sick of psychotic society somebody save me
Addicted to drama so even mama couldn't raise me
Even the preacher and all my teachers couldn't reach me
I run in the streets and puffin weed wit my peeps
I'm duckin the cop, I hit the weed as I'm clutchin my glock
Niggaz is hot when I hit the block, what if I die tonight
This should be the only EM song on this list. Get these white culture vultures a new culture to try belonging to. Rap isn't for them. This is a great lyrical song, Lose Yourself is just a pop-alternative rap rock song that sold a lot of albums & movie tickets, metrics that are meaningless to lyricism. - SAMOKiiNG
I agree that Lose Yourself shouldn't be #1 and that Em is a tad overrated, but keeping on hammering "WHITE" at every sentence is not much better than the "alt-right" you accuse many people to be a part of. - JoLeKosovo
A song with great emotion and emphasises on day to day struggles
The story that set it off
Tupac is the best, no boubt, but he could never write a song as lyrical as this. Most lyrical rap song of all time.
The Contenders
One of the few rappers to talk about actual problems not just sex drugs...
As terms of lyrical this song deserves to be much higher, along with Nas and biggie and Em
Any song from Tupac has a real lyrical meaning.
Best lyrics of all time
Way better than the others above it except dance with the devil
Common is a great lyricist! This song was definitely the greatest hip hop song of all time
Listen to the first bar - Iam_rsdxii
YES! MOVE THIS TO TOP TEN! - THICCBOI
This one hits had. I like this better than NY State of Mind. Universally relatable. - JoLeKosovo
Life's a bitch and then ya die, that's why we get high
From the first line to the last line, pure despair and emotion. A real trip down memory lane. - JoLeKosovo
The absolute flow and lyricism while still telling a story and sticking to the theme of GKMC! Amazing!
Best and realest song out there! Shows a lot about Kendrick and his skills he has!
Greatest rapper alive today.
Yup. No one knows about this track and I wish everyone did. This is why Dre signed him. Incredible
Shows ems raw talent and skill back when he wasn't doing it for only money. Before he got struck by the commercial success, when he was putting out songs so lyrical that I think infinite is in my top 10 songs by em
Before Eminem got famous, he made songs like this. This song perfectly showcases Em's raw talent with words.
Go listen to this, your mind will be changed
Great song, Nas is a lyrical genius
Best lyrical song ever
I'm not a Lupe fan but this is a masterpiece
We're all chemicals...
This has to be the greatest lyrical submission of all time.
One of the most lyrical songs ever
Murder is a tough thing to digest
It's a slow process
And I ain't got nothing' but time
I had near brushes, Not to mention
3 Shots close range, Never touch me, devine intervention
Can't stop I
From drinkin Ma-Tai's
With Ta Ta
Down in Nevada
Ha-ha, Poppa, word life
I dabled in crazy weight
Without rap I was crazy straight
Patnah I'm still gettin money from 88
Most people don't realize the deep layers in this song. Soulja Boy weaves various Shakespearian storytelling techniques and cleaver metaphors to create arguably the most lyrical rap song ever concieved.
AMAZING! The beat is hardly anything if you listen. But you don't notice cause he engages you with his flawless lyricism
He virtually killed this
How lyrical could he be on MMLP? Man, amazes me to hell and back.
One of the sweetest rap songs ever. And one of his top two best songs in my opinion. Ths song deserves more recognition... LISTEN TO THIS SONG people YOU WONT REGRET IT!
WAIT THIS IS NOT IN TOP 5 BRING THIS HIGHER - THICCBOI
No rap expert by any means,a soundtrack to downtown l.a. In the 80,s summed up the mood of the inner cities perfectly,still relevant today.
How is this so low? Punchline king hits hard on this.
Summer is too short!
This is one FIRE track!
Give it a listen if you haven't guys.
R.A. 's verse is more lyrical than all of these combined.
Best song ever
Can't believe this song isn't in top 10. Come on guys vote and get this song up next to dance with the devil
Best lyrical song ever! Amazing and so lyrical. Nas the best rapper ever.
After all the fuss 50 made coming into the game with his beef. Game single handedly took out the whole Gunit posse and many other in this song
The story he tells is tragic and he puts it in a way that expresses how miserable he feels.
In my opinion it is a better song than DWTD.
