Top 10 Songs to Prove Modern Hip-Hop Isn't Bad

The Top Ten

1 Alright - Kendrick Lamar

The lesser the quantity of quality Hip-Hop the more it makes that of quality special.

2 Ain't It Funny - Danny Brown

3 We the People - A Tribe Called Quest

Even if this song came out in the new school era, A Tribe Called Quest are Old School rappers and haven't changed their old school was. It's basically a 90s feel in a new school era.

4 Hell of a Night - Schoolboy Q

5 Close Your Eyes (And Count to F**k) - Run the Jewels

6 Lost Ones - J Cole

7 Hardknock - Joey Bada$$

8 Norf Norf - Vince Staples

9 Cocoa Butter Kisses - Chance the Rapper

10 Energy - Drake

The Contenders

11 Unforgivable Youth - Lupe Fiasco

Easily one of the best and most meaningful, even though not exactly positive hip hop songs I have heard.

12 Wing$ - Macklemore and Ryan Lewis

One of the most emotionally gripping, dramatic and intense songs I have heard in the 2010s. What makes me worry so much is that apparantly this isn't even exaggrated.

13 Swimming Pools (Drank) - Kendrick Lamar

14 Hold Me Back - KB

15 Godzilla - Eminem

16 Stir Fry - Migos

17 Lincoln - KB

18 Hoodtales IV - Kollegah

19 Königsaura - Kollegah

20 A.C.A.B. - Spongebozz

"Technical perfection and perfect best work: The Song"

21 100 Bars - Farid Bang

22 Sanageyama - Dat Adam

23 This is America - Childish Gambino

24 How Much a Dollar Cost - Kendrick Lamar

25 M.A.A.D City - Kendrick Lamar

I admit that I like this song better than many old school hip-hop classics.
