"Poll question: Favorite Bilal Hook/Bilal Appreciation"


  

          

So I decided to make a mix of Bilal features and noticed how dope this man was on his guest spots. I mean, I'll stick to my statement that if he would've sang every hook on Undun, it may be in the running for one of my favorite Hip-Hop albums ever.

so the mix is posted below, and the question is, what is your favorite Bilal hook, specifically a feature, not his own songs.

1. Faithful - Common (edited to only the ending)
2. Cali Sunshine - The Game
3. The 6th Sense - Common
4. Get Rich - M.O.P.
5. Fallin' - Jay-Z
6. Certified - Guru
7. Remember - J Dilla
8. U, Black Maybe - Common
9. The OtherSide - The Roots
10. Can't Get Right - Scarface
11. Second Chance - Little Brother
12. Nightmares - Clipse
13. Play Your Cards Right - Common
14. Always Shine - Robert Glasper (featuring Lupe Fiasco)
15. Funky For You - Common
16. Ends - Talib Kweli & DJ Hi-Tek are Reflection Eternal
17. It's Your World - Common
18. Misunderstood - Common (edited to only the ending)

I would suggest putting this playlist together (editing where noted and necessary) and let it ride. Makes for a real dope album in my opinion. Sequencing works well when edits are made (ie cutting The 6th Sense short and ending it on the 1 to flow smoothly into the scratches of Get Rich)

Let me know if I'm leaving off anything essential.

Peace

I feel it's more of a Bilal cover with a Kweli verse as opposed to a Bilal hook.

Definitely dope as hell though.
