Quote the Illest Verse/Lines !

^ QU Hectic, i think. Definitely one of the illest songs.

But na, i can appreciate that. That you like those types of songs. I do too. I love 'em. But i also love versatility. It's a respected quality in the game. Storytelling is one of the illest form of rhyming in rap when and if it's done right. Mobb Deep's used it too.

But if you know G. Rap you'd know that he could definitely spit some of that real street sh*t too, on the grimy tip. Like real street life sh*t. And he dos it with sick word play along clarity. You can't beat that.

like this favorite of mine:
....

and that just how sh*t really does happen too. And this was just an example, not even his grimiest.

Not arguing the quality of that verse, but that's exactly the thing with G Rap. To me, he just seems to repeat himself a lot of the time. Even in the same verse. Also I think he sacrifices the sort of dense, almost conversational realism Prodigy brought to his verses back in the day by making sure it all fits into that machine-gun flow of his. It's the same sort of thing with Bone Thugs. ''Down '71'' by Bone reminds me a lot of a G Rap track; ultraviolent, stylish mafioso storytelling that takes elements of street truth and gives it a Hollywood edge, delivered at breakneck speed.

I like it, every so often. It's entertaining. But ''The Infamous'' sucked me into another world altogether. Obviously it's all about what engages you more personally, so it's in terms of that I feel G Rap's overrated. As in he's not the best, not that he's wack.

Posted it a bunch of times, but always worth repeating. Still my favorite single line in hip-hop and a f*cking awesome putdown in its own right.

''These faggots hit like teddy bears thrown agains wooden doors
By a misunderstood teenage girl in a moment of self importance''

- El-P

"She helped me plan out my robberies on my enemies
Didn't hesitate to squeeze, to get my life out of danger (yeah)
One day, she put nine one one on the page
Had to call back, whether it's minor or major (yeah)
No response, the phone just rung
Grab my vest, grab my gun, to find out the problem
When I pulled up, police was on the scene
Had to make the U-turn, make sure my shit was clean
Drove down the block, stashed the burner in the bushes
Stepped to police with the shoves and the pushes
It didn't take long before the tears start
I saw my ***** dead with the gunshot to the heart
And I know it was meant for me
I guess the niggaz felt they had to kill the closest one to me (uh, yeah)
And when I find em your life is to and end
They killed my best friend... me and my *****"

b.i.g.

There's several different levels to devil worshippin: horse's heads,
Human sacrifices, canibalism; candles and exorcism
Animals havin sex with 'em; camels mammals and rabbits
But i don't get into that, i kick the habit - i just,
Beat you to death with weapons that eat through the flesh
And i never eat you unless the ****in, meat looks fresh
I got a lion in my pocket, i'm lyin, i got a nine in my pocket
And baby i'm just, dyin to cock him
He's ready for war, i'm ready for war
I got machetes and swords for any ****** that said he was raw
My uz' as, heavy as yours, yeah you met me before
I just didn't have as large an arsenal of weapons before
Marshall will step in the door, i lay your head on the floor
With your body spread on the bedspread, red on the wall
Red on the ceilin, red on the floor, get a new whore
Met on the second, wet on the third;
Then she's dead on the fourth - i'm dead wrong

The planet revolves, supposedly, man evolves
But no promblem is solved, cause man is the cause
For the sake of eugenics biochemists create ethospecific epidenmics
Injecting the public in clinics
Then when the truth comes out "you black people are so paranoid"
But who murdered africa the world health organization
Before 1978 there was no blood with aids contamination
It ain't little green monkeys
It's little white honkeys crossing bouing leukemia with sheep visnna virus
As set tore out the iris of horus, and isis loved osiris
Blackmen is blinded, while blackwomen look for real men but can't find it
Sometimes i think to myself "why'd i even bring a child into this world?"
I pay taxes so bill clinton can slang crack in arkansas buy gold imported
From south africa
But i don't eat swine
And beat the living shit outta skinheads
So where's my piece of mind?
A swiss watch, leasing a lex on credit
All the liquor and pussy a nigga can get
Put together a this puzzle but my pieces won't fit what the ****?

"B. Palace"

"My lyrics invade Europe like Joseph Stalin,
I'll murder n*ggaz for rymin'
Spittin' fire, wit gasoline for saliva,
i'm as drunk as Lady Diana's driver,
wit reporters behind her,
alchohol in the hands of a minor,
i got you panikin' like bombs wit 30 second timers,
clear the buildin',
evacuate women and children,
fcuk what 'chu feelin' n*gga, i came here to kill 'em,
str8 sh*ttin',
from New York to Great Britain,
and when we do shows we make the Queen pay admission.

I like this line to from the same song too.

"I'm tougher than denim,
and lethal like vemon in snake bites,
the marijuana makes my eyes bright, red like, brake lights."

I like this line to from the same song. Damn It's like every line in the song is sick. It's why it's my favorite track on the album.

"MC's run away when i kick it,
they act so chicken,
they should come wit a large drink and a biscuit"

lol

I'm a cream fiend, with a mean dream
Brain full of schemes, my crew's rolling fresh out the greens
Give you what you never seen, the ips on the Mac-10
It's 2:10 in the A.M. in the streets of Queens
Try hard and die hard
Chances of surviving the game is like trying to feed Allah lard
A walk a piece with a deadly shadow
They want to blow me with the double barrel, found no sorrow
I brawl with Blanka, caught Bison in a thinker
Don't make hell your new home, with the blue chrome
Mistakes want me, sauve fellow but raunchy
The soul of a cold body haunts me, I flee the country
But only to shed tears for years
Too wild for my own self, hopin help is near
Street Fighting was cool but in school I brought a new tool
Toolin with the devil, a rebel, a fool

And they say productivity is up this month but I've lost my passion
Sick of waiting in line for my weekly chocolate ration
It's bad health and industrial sadness
Never helped by tofu franks or holistic maggots
This addiction is more random,
I walk door to door Mormon style spitting my sick tantrums
Because I wasn't born handsome
Now that my life's complete with a capacity to push greatness' buttons
With beats that have to be registered
As sex offenders before presented to the public
I'll exfoliate your face with the acid inside my stomach
Binge and purge, we live in thirty second blurbs
And if consumers stopped existing we'd forget how to use words
Just f*ckin' eat each other til the next ice age occurs
Or at The Source awards scratching our heads like, what happened?

- El-P

F*ck yes I do my best to take advantage in bouts
With one hand over the mouth, still managin' to shout
There's more said, within the lines on your forehead
Than they could ever try to fine-print on the inside of that warhead
Cross country, like a little lost junkie
Make them hot and jumpy, trying to get that God money
Stearing the van through the blizzards, the fanfare
Pivit when we visit, spit victim if you stand there.

- Slug

[Verse One: Inspectah Deck]
Ryzarector, Madman, uh, uhh, yo, uhh
I move through the third world, my third eye's the guiding light
Invite the fight, we all die tonight
The life I lived, a 25 to life bid
Parole reneged, I stroll the globe fugitive
CREAM is short, C-cypher power stalk plus the fiend talk
Three G's accost in Supreme Court
White lies and blackmail land me back in jail
We're all for sale, a stolen gold but it fail
Stranded on the front line, I shine to the dumb and blind
It comes time I take back what was once mine
Crunch time in the first quarter, from the worst slaughter
Devil's poisonin the birth water
The earth daughter rest her head on my chest
Through the struggle we cuddle under half-moon crest
While the press plant fear and exploit the gun blastin
Central broadcasting is shackling, nerves are unfastened, shhhh
Trapped in deep-water gaspin
I Clash With the Titans from my half on the action

[Verse Two: RZA]
I stop producers careers, the weak spot was their ears
Scorpion darts hits their mark, pierce their heart with silver spears
You're bewildered, my unsaturated, low filtered
Devils still peeled it still they're living built tilted
MC's upon their axis, their body has a tactic
Lactic acid, desert drop cactus, practice
You can never master, it's invincible, Wu-Tang indispensable
One nation under God, indivisible
With liberty and justice, the mic is in my clutches
Thugs who bring ruckus, leave in crutches
Unforgiveable snakes face the double-edged swords starts to swivel
Decapitates the head, makes the projects, more livable
Interchangable, caution flameable
My chamber is ninety-nine plus one unnameable, angles
And strangles, microphone cords start to dangle
Silent as the gases that pass throughout your anal
Retrieve through your doors
Seep out like sweat through the pores
Destroy your internal organs with the biological warfare

Yo it wasn't even like that,
I wanted my cardiovascular to fight back
Cupid had me runnin' circles blindfolded
In the daytime with a flashlight looking for her
Yo, sit back, relax and smell the roses
A fly girl by any other name would still be that
But the trick is to see that
I'm caught in between future's fantasies and memories I played back
Told my man I started sword fighting,
Cos fencing was similar to tongue kissing
If you wait too long you gonna end up confessin'
All I think about is you undressin'
I extended my thoughts in a relationship
But they sunk like the titanic relation-ships
She was in a love triangle
But it wasn't like my feelings weren't there to make it a square
Pennies for her thoughts
She's my very own American Beauty, red petals when we talk,
The f word.

- Vast Aire

Man do I miss the old Vast.

And just to continue my recent theme of classic Cold Vein verses...

Yo, I'm honest with this art
With a William Wallace heart that's brave
And a blade that's well polished and sharp
Intending to reinvent two spinning wheels in line
Just to enjoy the bumpy ride and improve upon its design
I take time, every plate circle's complete, love it
I've learned even tardy birds come to eat from it
Early bird gets the worm but that early worm finds a spot
In the early bird's stomach and can't escape from it.

- Cryptic

BLOOD

"Well, they encourage all complete cooperation,
send ya roses when they think you need to smile.
I can't control myself because I don't know how,
And they love me for it, honestly, I'll be here for awhile.

So give them blood, blood, gallons of the stuff!
Give them all that they can drink and it will never be enough.
So give them blood, blood, blllooood!
Grab a glass because there's going to be a flood!

A celebrated man amongst the gurneys.
They can fix me proper with a bit of luck.
The docters and the nurses they adore me so,
But its really quite alarming, cause I'm such an awful f*ck! (oh thank you!)

I gave you blood, blood, gallons of the stuff!
I gave you all that you could drink and it has never been enough.
I gave you blood, blood, bllllllllooooooooooooood!!!
I'm the kind of human wreckage that you love!"

- My Chemical Romance

And if they get me and the sun goes down into the ground
And if they get me take this spike to my heart and
And if they get me and the sun goes down
And if they get me take this spike and
You put the spike in my heart

And if the sun comes up will it tear the skin right off our bones
And then as razor sharp white teeth rip out our necks I saw you there
Someone get me to the doctor, someone get me to a church
Where they can pump this venom gaping hole
And you must keep your soul like a secret in your throat
And if they come and get me
What if you put the spike in my heart

And if they get me and the sun goes down
And if they get me take this spike and

(Come on!)

Can you take this spike?
Will it fill our hearts with thoughts of endless
Night time sky?
Can you take this spike?
Will it wash away this jet black feeling?

And now the nightclub sets the stage for this they come in pairs she said
We'll shoot back holy water like cheap whiskey they're always there
Someone get me to the doctor, and someone call the nurse
And someone buy me roses, and someone burned the church
We're hanging out with corpses, and driving in this hearse
And someone save my soul tonight, please save my soul

Can you take this spike?
Will it fill our hearts with thoughts of endless
Night time sky?
Can you take this spike?
Will it wash away this jet black now?

(Let's go! Come on!)

And as these days watch over time, and as these days watch over time
And as these days watch over us tonight

I'll never let them, I'll never let them
I'll never let them hurt you not tonight
I'll never let them, I can't forget them
I'll never let them hurt you, I promise

Struck down, before our prime
Before, you got off the floor
Can you stake my heart? Can you stake my heart?

Can you stake my heart? Can you stake my heart?
(And these thoughts of endless night
bring us back into the light
and this venom from my heart)

Can you stake my heart? Can you stake my heart?
(And these thoughts of endless night
bring us back into the light
kill this venom from my heart)

Can you stake me before the sun goes down?

(And as always, innocent like roller coasters.
Fatality is like ghosts in snow and you have no idea what you're up against
because I've seen what they look like.
Becoming perfect as if they were sterling silver chainsaws going cascading...)

G. Rap

Me and Nitty was like bank tellers, nothin' n*ggaz could tell us,
He drove a Rover, I pushed a shiny yellow Testarossa,
Moved on it closer, get the toaster,
Started to feel like death was closer, I hit Capone hard,
Murdered him and his bodyguard in they car, and dust the chaffeur,
Beef over, I blew him like a supernova,
N*ggaz nicknamed me, The Black Cobra,
The Lady Casanova, yo I'm even deadly when I'm sober,
When you act like you got a chip on your shoulder,
I'll blastin the two right through your boulder,
Money you didn't know they should'a told ya,
N*gga you fcukin' with a soldier, wake up and smell the Folgers,
Niggaz out here get buried in lime-pits to cover up the odor,
Operations from here to Minnesota to Dakota,
But yo here comes Greasy Thumbs, who wants to get the easy funds,
He whispered in my eardrum,
"Let's take over the entire city, and split the dough
me you and Frank Nitty and Siegel and that'll make the bank pretty"
No doubt before we go we gotta murder John Torre yo
get all his territory dough and end the story yo

[Redman]
Aiyyo I put it on a nigga, shit it on a nigga
Turnin Christian to a certified sinner
The bomb I release, time pent up (explodes)
While you got set up I was hittin your ex hoe
Shit I kept low, petro' your metro
Politic, keep the chickenheads gobblin
Shit I'm drivin in, come with funk halogen
Terrorize your city, from the spliff committee
Kick ass till both Timberlands turn shitty
Gritty, smack the driver's head in the chin see
When I approach rappers be takin notes
I drop like I shoulda invented the raincoat
Absolut, I love to burn to the roots
I keep comin til your pour sperm from your boots
Vigilante hardcore to the penis
Tell you **** you my attitude is anemic

[Canibus]
I'm the illest nigga alive, watch me prove it
I snatch your crown witcha head still attatched to it
Canibus is the type who'll fight for mics
Beatin niggaz to death and beatin dead niggaz to life
When you look at me long enough, I start to read your thoughts
if the signal was strong enough, and then I'll call your bluff
like, "Yo, how many rhymes you got?" I think I'll go on
for more Milleniums than Mazda's got on the car lot
And there's nowhere to run ta, when I confront ya
Nigga, I call your bluff like you had a phone number
Who wanna see Canibus get wild, who wanna act fly and
get shot down with a surface-to-air missile
I take em on in all shapes sizes and forms and spit on
anybody who ain't close enough to shit on
Zero to sixty? I'm already doin a hundred
when I'm blunted and I give it to any nigga that want it

Brother Ali

Yo it's the Ox in the flesh, of course I'm fresh
Yes, I'm livin for the funk like I was Lord Finesse
Last night I screamed till I lost my voice I guess
Had a few things left to get up off of my chest
Like I'm, facing the fact that I'm not, what my mom wanted
Only gold plaque that I got, had the Qu'Ran on it
I fliped your eviction notice over, wrote a song on it
Like to hear it, here it go, light your spirit, clear your soul
If I would've known that tonight was Ladie's Night
I would've stopped and swabbed my balls with the baby whipe
In the van, Hold your sorry little life in my hand
Watch me toss it in the sky and swing right for the stands
Battling me is like trying to ride your bike in the sand
I'ma eat one more helping, then I'm, whiping my hands
And you frustrated rappers, must hate the fact
That I walk in first class, have so much ladies gaspin for breath
Tryin to catch me, with the ass and the chest
I ain't tryin to be rude lady, I'm just passin a test
Got enough hastle and stress, with one woman cashing my cheques
I'll take the compliment and pass on the sex

It's kinda hard to be optimistic
When your homie's laying dead on the pavement twisted
Y'all don't hear me though
I'm trying hard to make amends
But I'm losin all my mutha ****in friends
DAMN!
They should've shot me when I was born
Now I'm trapped in the mutha ****in storm
How long will they mourn me?!?!

From "How Long Will They Mourn Me" by Tupac featuring Nate Dogg

So here's where it starts, I rip apart charts and break hearts
Balance book knowledge with street smarts
A man from your fleet thoughts he's found he's f*cking fickle
Pass the sickle (chill) here's a riddle: now who abuses money from taxes?
Makes a law then seals it from the people to make sure that it passes
Using evil's axis to access to all become fascists
Using our greatest fears to lash us
(Usher?) No another sucker, he's got a bottom lip and no upper
Coming from the state down under
(Tess?) Yeah she had a real good time there with her salt and pepper hair
Sending brothers to the chair
(Bush!) Yeah you guessed it
I could smell the dawn of armageddon when this dick was elected
Anger stored in hangars, weapons and propaganda
Conveyed via camera penetrate the slander
Those who dove into the pot that's melting
But waited eternally in line for a helping
You step before your turn, they bite your f*cking hand like the board worms
Breaking you down with more germs
Disease is corrosive, light is highly explosive
Rhymes are cock and loaded, niggaz oppose Lif
I'm wrecking your dome while I'm escaping your focus
So pick your savior nigga: Jesus, Michael, or Joseph
I played when I was younger but those days have passed
(Yo what you do now?) I rip frames and laugh
I'm bombing your set like I'm a poet
Four heads from four feds who got dizzy once they saw dreads
Yeah they represent power
It means that when you come too hard at me I'm going to charge you by the hour
They bonded together and now they're strong presumably
My locks are proof that there is strength in unity
So now it's possible, I'm the son prodigal I see through all the bull
While you're in the huddle call the audible
Stop and realize you're the captain of a ship that has capsized
Words from a brother who raps wise.

- Mr Lif

My favorite Lif verse over one of the hottest basslines in hip-hop history. God bless Edan.

Arguably the best diss song i've ever heard, imo.

"Canibus" dissin' L.L.

Than attendence in a class of schizophrenics, hear hear.

He's like my favorite rapper I've never seen...seriously, I've never even seen a picture of the guy or anything. Don't even know if he's white or black. Every guest verse he drops, Co Flow, Juggaknots, Jedi Mind Tricks, C-Rayz Walz, he outshines them all. Never heard any solo stuff from him though. I'd be very interested if there is anything floating about that anyone knows of, even if it's just a 12'' or a mixtape or something.
