Moreso in the car because i can rap along with their slower flows on that one. I can’t keep up with Motown 25 as easily. I always tended to play that one more in the headphones.

I listened to Motown 25 like 5x a day for at least 8 months after that album came out. I think it still remains in my top 25 most played songs on my iPod (that I rarely use anymore but still ...)

Song just goes and goes hard.

Motown 25
Losin' Out
Deadly Medley

Can't go wrong with any of these songs tho.

Recently had Losing Out come up in YouTube recommendations. And of course after that I wanted to hear Deadly Medley. And then that made me think I should listen to Motown 25. It was a hell of a 10-15 minutes, lol.

The whole Preface album ain’t on there. And Pandora says it’s can only play Motown 25 as a radio selection, due to “license issues.” TF? Is that shit only on Apple Music or something?

Peace,

I can upload all of the mixtapes and other random albums (Jay-Z comes to mind) that aren't available on these platforms and stream them just as if they were.

The lack of De La Soul and JayZ on Spotify has become a source of significant frustration for me recently.

i love all three songs and when i saw the post i got angry, like you cant make me choose!!!

i just listened to all three and losing out is just awesome. motown 25 is great but i might had overplayed it or it hasnt aged as well. deadly medley is great as well but not touching losing out. i would probably give motown 25 the edge over deadly medley. royce's verse is so awesome.

this would be an awesome group.

Though it’s not easy. That’s why I made the poll, and was curious as to which one of these 3 the Lesson gives the edge to and how do you decide?

I feel like the rapping and production on all 3 are extremely high level....but that Losing Out beat is just extra next level. It’s beyond a 10/10. Like a 15/10.

One of the best and most distinctive beats of all time.

And what sticks out to me the most is just how good Black Milk's verse on Deadly Medley is. He has a serious contender for best verse on the song, which says a lot. Multis crazy, punchlines dope.

Best song on the list is Losing Out though. As someone said, the beat really puts it over the top.

He took a major step up as a rapper on Tronic IMO, and Losing Out was a prime example.

Tronic was such a cool album. Easily his best IMO.

Then Losing Out
then Deadly Medley

Wish we could have an Elzhi/Royce album produced by Black Milk.

Also why has Eminem never rapped over a Black Milk beat? SMH.

Definitely Losing Out. That song is special. Best beat of the bunch, distinct flow pattern(s), the "let's talk about" refrain in their rhymes...it's just a doper, more complete song than the others, to my ears.
