Top 10 Best Rap Songs of 2018

Looking back at the illustrious year of 2018, the rap landscape was nothing short of a thrilling rollercoaster ride. An exciting array of old-school legends, contemporary icons, and breakout rookies all contributed to what most would agree was a vibrant and dynamic year for the genre. It was a time when artists weren't afraid to push boundaries, blur lines, and redefine what rap music could be.

But when it comes to identifying the best rap songs of 2018, we're venturing into some pretty subjective territory. The beauty of rap lies in its wide range, its diversity, and its ability to resonate with different people in different ways.

From high-octane club bangers that kept the party jumping till dawn to soul-stirring narratives that gave a voice to the unheard, 2018 had it all.

The Top Ten

  1. Lucky You - Eminem

    Amazing flow and beats. Supersonic speed. Songs above this, they all gotta move to make it number one.

  2. Watching As I Fall - Mike Shinoda

  3. King's Dead - Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar, Future, James Blake

  4. Dark Knight Dummo - Trippie Redd

  5. All Girls are the Same - Juice WRLD

  6. Stargazing - Travis Scott

  7. 44 More - Logic

    It was tough choosing between this and This is America.

    This just shows that Logic is more than 1-800.

  8. Over Again - Mike Shinoda

  9. Sad - Xxxtentacion

    His lyrics are so emotional. They make me cry every time I remember him.

    Who am I? Someone that's afraid to let go

    You decide if you're ever gonna let me know

    Suicide if you ever try to let go

    I'm sad.

    Rest in peace, homie.

    Very deep song with a nice beat to it.

    Very good. Good song. He brought emotion to the rap game. May he rest in peace. LLJ

  10. Clout Cobain | Clout Co13a1n - Denzel Curry

    Number one. Not the best song from TA13OO, but still should be number one.

    11. The Newcomers
  11. ?

    Thanos (Blow It) - Lil Nas X

    To those people who like Old Town Road (including me), please don't sleep on this song at all. It's probably one of my favorites off of his Nasarati mixtape from 2018.

  12. ?

    HXW They Judge - Scarlxrd

    13. The Contenders

  13. All The Stars - Kendrick Lamar, SZA

  14. This is America - Childish Gambino

    This, Sicko Mode, God's Plan, and 44 More were the best of 2018.

  15. Everyday - Logic and Marshmello

  16. Yosemite - Travis Scott

  17. God's Plan - Drake

    I'll say it, I refused to listen to this song at first. I thought "well it's Drake so it sucks" but I didn't give this song nearly enough credit. Drake's had a pretty good start to the year.

    I really like this song. It has been played so much that sometimes it gets annoying, but I still think it's a really good song.

  18. Moonlight - Xxxtentacion

  19. Self Care - Mac Miller

  20. Lucid Dreams - Juice WRLD

  21. Workin Me - Quavo

  22. Sicko Mode - Travis Scott

  23. Place to Start - Mike Shinoda

  24. Freaky Friday - Lil Dicky

  25. Rap Devil - Machine Gun Kelly

  26. Black Panther - Kendrick Lamar

  27. Pray For Me - The Weeknd, Kendrick Lamar

    I actually like this song mainly because of the melody in the singing part, but the rap part is one of those rare rap parts that actually sounds good. 9/10.
