Posted: Jun 22, 2007 12:59 a.m. - Subject: Best Rap Punchline?
There are many of you that claim to be Hiphop heads, but I’m going to check your thoughts and see how you really think of lyrics.
The object of this thread is to post your favorite rap line/lines, the hardest punchlines, the biggest diss lines, etc. The one line that made you rewind the song, like "Did he/she really just say that shit?"
And to those of you who opened this thread just to say some anti-rap comment, keep moving to a different thread. Your "rap is crap" thing has been well over used, so unless you have something to contribute, keep moving. We don’t put your music down, don’t put ours down.
Let’s get them lyrics.. I’ll start with one I just heard.
"See, my coupe is baby blue/but the interior’s yellow/so I thought it’d be cute/to call my car ’Melo" -Remy Ma

i personally don’t like rap, but i used to listen to some a while ago... i always thought alot of eminem’s lyrics were very controversial and on the edge... i would give a specific line, but i honestly can’t remember any... plus, it was just eminem in general

I don’t really listen to todays rap, but I like old hip-hop (Public Enemy, NWA, The Sugarhill Gang) so hopefully that qualifies for this thread.
I live these lines from "Fight The Power" by Public Enemy:
Quote:
As the rhythm designed to bounce
What counts is that the rhymes
Designed to fill your mind
Now that you’ve realized the prides arrived
We got to pump the stuff to make us tough
from the heart
It’s a start, a work of art
To revolutionize make a change nothin’s strange
People, people we are the same
No we’re not the same
Cause we don’t know the game
What we need is awareness, we can’t get careless
You say what is this?
My beloved lets get down to business
Mental self defensive fitness

"The one man on the planet/that’ll drive off at the Grand Canyon/hop outta Grand Am/and land in a handstand/Any man plannin to battle/will get snatched out of his clothes so fast it’ll look like/the invisible man standing/I’m ready for hell, I’d rather be dead or in jail/Bill Clinton, hit this, and you better inhale/cause any MC that chooses to go against me/is getting taken advantage of, like Monica Lewinsky" - Eminem from the song "Scary Movies" featuring Royce da 5’9"
They think I’m a drug dealer, I’m dealing large cause I’m playing with more diamonds then a deck of cards/My wrist light up a room like a bulb in a light/I’m not your bud but I shine kinda like Bud Light/I’m thowed but you can catch me mackin something that’s yellow/Sippin coconut rum with a little umbrella/Game shooter I take trips to Bermuda/So many cars I got more keys than a computer" -Paul Wall
"Y’all like 50 minus 2, thats another dude that Forty Ate (48)" - 40 Cal.
"We all had 15 cents when we did the crime, you only got a nickel, you musta dropped a dime" - Papoose
And one of the hardest one-line diss comebacks in history... Canibus did a song, and said "While 99 percent of your fans wear high heels" against LL Cool J. Thought he had won something with that line until LL came back with:
"Ask Canibus, he ain’t understanding this
Cause 99 percent of his fans... don’t exist" Rofl.

That "Shady Records got it locked, la la la lalalocked" song is a great diss. That’s the Hail Mary 2004 right? The same one where Busta does the only diss verse in his entire career, and immediately murders JaRule?
"I been one of the most humble, rep the streets to the core, hey Jeffrey, what the fuck you come involvin me for? It’s been a long time comin, like a blessing to check you, see 106th and Park fans don’t even fuckin respect you. It’s kinda funny, wanna be Pac wanna fake like he thug, runnin around talkin shit that he ain’t capable of. Now lemme off this cocksucka, watch me handle you ni**a, if I recall, Violator used to manage you ni**a. They took a closer look and realized you was an imposter, there’s never been a Violator on a Murder Inc roster. Dumbass. Now who’s shootin? Aww, made you look. You said Bus singin the same ol’ hook? Ya’ll stupid.. If y’all shootin, I take a look at ya man, the bitch shot himself in front of Def Jam, ol’ Cheddar Bob ass ni**a start adjustin your plan, you let the streets down ni**a, apologize to your fans! Watch you pull a lil stunt like we don’t know where you are, lil faggot desperately tryin to reestablish a buzz. This shit is drivin you crazy and you wonderin how, the streets ain’t want you Beatrice, what you gonna do now? Now if you beefin with me, then I’m beefin with you.. I think about the game and what it’s like and what would it be without you!!! You finished, just cause I’m cool, shouldn’t take my kindness for weakness."
Or something like that. I’m just typing fast from memory, I haven’t heard that song in well over a year and the person taking over for me so I can leave work just got here.. Speed kills. But that’s one of the best diss songs ever, if it wasn’t for 50 copying Tupac’s verse almost word-for-word.

JayZ eh? Just one off the top of the head from Moment of Clarity, produced by Eminem, on the Black Album...
"Truthfully, I wanna rhyme like Common Sense,
but I did five million, I ain’t been rhyming like Common since
When your sense got that much in common,
and you’ve been hustling since,
your inception fuck perception
go with what makes sense,
since, I know what I’m up against,
we as rappers must decide what’s most important"
Which is really a great line because Common is one of the best lyricists out but the man has never gone platinum. The most famous song he has is because Kanye was on the beat ("The Corners" a couple years ago). Too bad.

You stopped just early on the 300 Bars thing Clown.. The very next lines of that:
We was in the studio, when I first got signed
He got stuck, he called 50 trying to borrow some lines
That’s the wrong ni**a, when you need help with your rhymes
All he gonna tell you is say GUnit one more time
And that was all she wrote on Banks’ involvement in the Game/GUnit beef. And if you look further into 300 Bars (18 minute long diss song done in one take, easily a top-5 diss song ever) he goes onto Young Buck (real name: David Brown). A few years ago, the GUnit camp was at the Vibe Awards with Dr Dre. When Dre was going up to accept a lifetime achievement award, someone from the Death Row camp asked him for his autograph and then punched Dre in the face. During the melee that followed, videotape showed Buck jumping over everyone and stabbing the guy...
And you don’t want that David cause you love your life
Get my Vibe, when it’s war he pull out butter knifes
Again, that’s all she wrote on Buck’s involvement in the GUnit/Game beef. Although I must say, Buck is probably the best member of GUnit. If Banks, Yayo and Buck were to all go solo, I can almost guarantee that Buck would sell the best. He switched up his style when he went to GUnit, because when he was with Juvenile and UTP he sounded like he was 14. Now he sounds good.

I think I know just a little too much about Hiphop... Seriously, if I forgot all that I know about football and Hiphop, I’d be a rocket scientist. But, is it a bad thing to study something that you love? I didn’t think so.. I’m a self-proclaimed Hiphop Historian, and have never really been consistently wrong in any Hiphop-based questioning.
