I know we were asked not to list but personally Me'shell has to be broken down. On a musical level Bittersweet is one of the most complex joints she's written. The music always puts me in a mellow state of mind and at the same time makes me wanna get up and boogie. On a lyrical level I'd have to go with Satisfy. I think it's the most poetic song she's done. Too bad she's slept on.
