a couple from Pac

and maybe one from EM

Pac - "Changes"
B.I.G. - "Juicy"
Lil Wayne - "Georgia... Bush"
Dead Prez - "Hip-Hop"
Immortal Technique - "Cause of Death" or "Osama"

^ Lmfao, Pac bit "Changes" off Bruce Hornsby's "The Way It Is" and you call it your most lyrical track.

Check out..

Atmosphere - Trying To Find A Balance
Sage Francis - Makeshift Patriot
Sage Francis - Slow Down Gandhi

Royce da 5'9 "Life"
Royce da 5'9 "T.O.D.A.Y."
Eminem "Rock Bottom"
Pitbull "Melting Pot"
Common "Testify"

Just pick out 5 Big Pun songs and that would be my 5 favs :thumbup:

it aint biting ...in that case eminem bit dido's "thank you" for stan
eminem bit aerosmiths "dream on" for sing for the moment
eminem bit that hart song ta make crazy in love
eminem bit martika's "toy soldiers" ta make like toy soldiers
kayne west bit searra leone's "diamonds ta make his version of diamonds

and so on and so on and so on

its just adding onto classic songs

Eminem is a joke.

He's gains fame off of other people's success.

^^^yea but since when do you say its dope JUST cuz of the sample???
if a rapper makes a wack song to a sampled beat people are still ogn say its wack
when it comes down to it all its still the rapper thats makin it dope
you dont think of dido when u think of stan u think of eminem
so how is it makin fame off of someone else???

The only part I liked in "Stan" was Dido's part, it made the entire song what it was. Aerosmith's "Dream On" is the best part of "Sing for the Moment"

It's whack, it don't matter anyways man, I don't feel like arguing over an emcee I think is whack.

ehhh i aint arguing i was just speakin on the way i see it

i cant think of just 5 :(

All of Pun's shit from capital punishment
Canibus-Poet Laureate 1 & 2, Curriculum 101
All of Chino XL's shit from I Told You So and most of Poison Pen
All of Eminems shit from 2003 and earlier
Eyedea-Paradise and Glass
Atmosphere-Theyre all gonna laugh @ you
Jean Grae-A Alikes and NonSense
Louis Logic-Trail of Tears, a lot of Sin-A-Matic
Nas-illmatic, most of stillmatic, gods son, and lost tapes
Rakim-almost all shit on 18th letter, follow the leader
Royce Da 5'9"-almost all of Death is Certain and a few other tracks from seperate mixtape shits i dont feel like naming =/
Tonedeff-almost everything he gets on...masochist, loyal
