Lord Finesse Breaks Down Big L’s “Lifestylez Ov Da Poor & Dangerous” | HipHopDX He was phenomenal with the penmanship, man. You want me on it, I’m here.” It’s like, I can’t stop this dude from writing what he gonna write. I was arrogant, I ain’t give a fuck about. And I think he was responsible for making Diggin’ step game up, because if we doing a song together, pshew, you better be ready, dog. It’s a toss up between the two rappers, who both dazzle with crazy flows and wordplay, but I’m going to go with Big L this time. Who had the best verse: Featuring another great verse from the up-and-coming Jay-Z before Reasonable Doubt dropped, “Da Graveyard” is really a battle between Big L and Hov (which had already happened in real-life in Harlem). Rappers: Big L, Lord Finesse, Microphone Nut, Jay-Z, Party Arty, Grand Daddy I.U. Rampage Talks Diddy Convincing Him To Record On “Flava In Ya Ear (Remix)” | HipHopDX I just came up there to support Bus and then Puff was like ‘What? You ain’t gonna be on it?” and I’m like, ‘Man? Give me a minute!’ So I just went into my files real fast, heard the beat, went in there and two weeks later, I was on the video! That’s how that happened. But I wasn’t supposed to be on the record. We were all in the same studio so the vibe in the studio was good. Actually Biggie laid his verse first and I was in the studio with me, Puff, Mo Bee, Busta and LL. Rampage: We was all in the studio, same time. Now it was a laid-back flow and dismissal verses with a wave of his hand. Gone are the days of screaming on the mic and throwing out over-the-top threats. Who had the best verse: “Don’t be mad / UPS is hiring.” This is the Biggie after Puffy had put in a lot of work on him. Rappers: Craig Mack, The Notorious B.I.G., LL Cool J, Rampage, Busta Rhymes I had never been to New York at that point in my life, and I knew that Queens was far from the ‘Natti, but listening to this record-I felt like I could’ve been right there in the QB projects. I even remember sitting down at the piano and self-teaching myself that piano loop. I memorized every line, and must’ve played it so many times that the record sleeve ripped. Hi-Tek: When I was younger, I remember buying the Juice Crew’s “The Symphony” record, and I immediately fell in love with that song. G Rap sounds ferocious, hungry and like he’s got rhymes for days, but you have to go with Big Daddy Kane for this, especially with his line “So, put a quarter in your ass ’cause ya played yourself.” The best verse goes to either G Rap or Kane. This track is the definition of a posse cut and still stands as one of the best, bar for bar. Who had the best verse: When Marley Marl rounded up his Juice Crew rappers for “The Symphony,” it’s hard to imagine he would have known how influential the record would turn out to be. Rappers: Master Ace, Craig G., Kool G Rap, Big Daddy Kane
Before we go ahead, there’s going to be a lot of Wu joints on here, y’all been warned. So with that in mind, here’s a chronological list of the 50 greatest posse cuts in rap history. “ A posse cut is a popular form of song in hip hop music that involves successive verses by four or more rappers.“ I’m sure there’s many different interpretations of the term “posse cut” but for the purpose of this article, I’m going to go with good ol’ Wikipedia.
