| Jay-Z – U Don't Know Lyrics | 16 years ago |

shows you can come from the gutter to the top of the world. living proof that it's not the hand of cards your dealt that determines your lt in life, but how you play the hand that you're dealt. plus the beat is sick, and flow and lyrics are amazing. HOV at one of his best |

| Michael Jackson – Billie Jean Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
A timeless classic. the song/performance that cemented him as the King. one of the all-time greatest songs that'll stand forever. I rocked it when since I could remember, back in the late 80s, and still do to this day R.I.P. MJ |

| Jonny Lang – Dying To Live Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This song ask the question that I'm sure many people has asked. why keep fighting to live if your life is just an endless fight? if no one's giving you a chance why are you still trying to give? If we're all just going to die, why are we dying to live? Sure it seems to start off bleak, depressed or even emo...but I love how the song comes full circle. The artist was begging himself these questions during trying times in the begining, but towards the end has resolved these questions. found his reason for continuing the fight and stands tall |

| Tupac Shakur – Brenda's Got a Baby Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This song shows you that hip hop is an art form. it's on a whole other intellectual or conceptual level shows 2Pac for the great rapper, poet and social commentator pretty much he's telling the story of teenage pregnancy from the tragic victim's point of view and puts you in her shoes. he's also criticizing the inner-city school system for the lack of education going on in the schools. He's also criticizing babyfathers for their increasing lack of supprt, as well as the government and the rest of society for how they leave young mothers to fend for themselves |

| Tupac Shakur – Black Jesus Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
this is really great lyrical storytelling of the struggle is a community and its need for a leader(s) that can relate to them and their struggle. Much like what the African-American community had in the 50s & 60s tsct1990 you're wrong in generaling rappers as less intelligent artist. Will Smith for one did score a near perfect on his SATs and was accepted into M.I.T. among other schools but chose to persue a rap career. & 2Pac was much smarter than what most people knew, and very well read. Could quote Shakespeare in an instant and heavily influenced by writers such as Niccolo Machiavelli. But despite gaining alot of critical acclaim for his political album 2Pacolypse Now, he wasn't reaching the audience he had wanted and became progressively more gangsta in his later album All Eyez On Me. If you wanna listen to hip hop artist that have more substance and intellence you got to go to the underground/ concious rap circles. Not the mainstream |

| T.I. – 56 Bars (Intro) Lyrics | 16 years ago |

| T.I. – Collect Call Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
idk why this track wasn't added onto the main CD rather than a bonus track. it's easily as good as any other on Paper Trail if not better than a couple others. I could just play this track over and over basically he's saying make sure you know who your real friends are. People always love gravitating to those who are on top. But those same people can or will leave you or turn on you when you're no longer on top and really need them. But true friends and family will stay by your side and help you out no matter what, and those are the people you should keep tight to you |

| The Notorious B.I.G. – Notorious Thugs Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
one of the illest raps ever spit on a track Biggie displays his greatest in his versatility, being able to adapt to the speed of Bone-Thugs so effortlessly. And doing so while still dropping one the best rhymes |
|
| The Notorious B.I.G. – Juicy Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
15 years later and this sng is still the shit. Biggie had a flow like n other. btw, Suge's comment didn't start the fight that led to the rivalry between 2Pac & Biggie. Pac had blamed BIG & Puff among others for having prior knowledge of the robbery that left Pac shot 5 times months before that MTV awards comment by Suge. But Suge sure was encouraging Pac on in the beef no doubt No matter your coast, a dope MC is a dope MC. and Biggie was defiantely the man |

| Jay-Z – Brooklyn's Finest Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
one of the greatest hip-hop collaborations...what else can u expect when u put together 2 of the greatest mc to ever grace the game. representin' BK to the fullest the beat's sick. wish Jay hooked up with Clark Kent the verses get better as the song goes on and you can hear Biggie and Jay trying t out do each other lyrically. It's Biggie in his prime and could have easily stolen the show with any other rapper, but Jay more than held his own.this is what a rap collaboration should be, both artist shining and giving the best |

| Eminem – Beautiful Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
the beat and use of sampling of 'Reaching Out' couldn't be better and his flow to the track is sick. the lyrics and his storytelling ability is as great as it's ever been. easily my favorite track off the album the meaning culdn't be more straight forward. you are who you are and that's beautiful. be yourself and screw everyone else if they say you're anything else other than beautiful. |
|
| Jay-Z – Regrets Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
one of his greatest. the beat and flow are sick basically about the stress filled life of a hustler and how it also affects those around him. shows you the vulnerable side. |

| Lupe Fiasco – Intruder Alert Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
easily my favorite song on the cd. so very deep and powerful. In the first verse, I felt for the girl but was glad that she finally found someone who could help her start over again, but the for the longest, from the lines "Knew that it was right, cause something was wrong, The alarms in her mind didn't tell her he didn't belong" I feared that the guy she trusted was actually an intruder, but then realized it was just her finally trusting someone and not automatically rasiing the intruder alert and pushing him away The second verse was by far my favorite. It's a situation that alot of ppl could be quick to judge but actually have no idea of the third verse, Lupe certainly puts our ideas on illegal immigration on it's head. I mean, yes you have those with either ill intent and stuff; but you also have those like some from Cuba who have no other choice but do what they have to do for the best welfare and future of their children |
