In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Yeah I'm cheating. But there sre so many dan good MOP songs cutting them down to 10 is almost a crime. I did it, but I can't post those without giving some others some shine. The top 10 list will be tomorrow. Here today, though (in no particular order)....

1. Here Today, Gone Tomorrow
http://youtu.be/a2E8Q2CkqmU

My only complaint for this song is it's too damn short. Beyond that, Billy and Fame kill this DR Period banger
Favorite line: This here thing/I hold in my hand/make the trigga nigga the MUTHA FUCKIN MAN

2. Put It In The Air (Ft. Jay-Z)
http://youtu.be/M0GvCf03CpE

A flip of the classic Microphone Fiend featuring Marcy's own. More than a few Rakim nods in the lyrics from both of them. There's a rock version they did with Shiner Massive for the Mash Out Posse album that goes HARD, but we'll get back to that later

3.Watch Out (ft. Teflon)
http://youtu.be/JY6Q08h__mk

First time I heard this shit was on an And 1 basketball video. I damn near recorded that shit off the TV. Beatminerz, Brownsvillians, and B-Ball. Have this song in your head when you're heading down the lane and somebody is getting posterized.

4. Big Boy Game
http://youtu.be/ZMe_fMps8eU
The the reason y'all niggaz rap hard.....Nigga. Done sometime between the'r Roc-a-Fella bid and the G-Unit deal, this shit bangs, even with 50 grafted on the hook in some versions. Unlike Mobb Deep, MOP seemed to stay, well, MOP. Which may have had something to do with their official G-Unit release getting pushed/shelved. But the hot shit from those times is still out there

5. Opium
http://youtu.be/kTlLdghCkuo
Some people poo-pooed their colab with The Snowgoons. Whatever. They did their damn thing on it. This track here bangs like shit, Try to front on it. You cant.....

6. Downtown Swinga '98
http://youtu.be/tPf6cKUOepU
This shit nearly made the top 10. Bill, Fame and Premo were in rare form here. By the middle of the song you may end up slapping somebody just because. Never gassed to do, what I have to do....

7. Bloody Murdah
http://youtu.be/Srvt9LAdrSs
This one is probably more for Premier than anything else. I just want to take the first 8 bars of the song where he's scratching B-Real and loop that shit. Anytime somebody says some stupid shit... 'I don't give a fu-fu-fickie-fuck-FUCK' Fame and Bill kill this shit too, but still, perfect scratched chorus. If you don't agree, start the song over and let Premier talk to you for 20 seconds....

8. W.O.L.V.E.S.
http://youtu.be/Y2M5KDjFnAw
Yes I know, this is actually Krumbsnatcha's song. But MOP has a habit of jumping on a track and stealing that shit right from under whoever they're working with. This is probably the best example yet. Billy absolutely beasts on this shit:

How do I survive/I strap up on my heat/I get out on the beat/I find a way to eat/see William never sleep/you think it's something sweet/ and I will kindly li-li-li-li-lift your ass up off your feet

You can't fuck with that. Shit would have made Top 10 too, but it's not their song. Although I did break that rule for the Top 10...

9. Way Of The World
http://youtu.be/-Hf1Dq-lBsM
Off the Handle Ur Bizness EP, which I banged in the ride for months when it came out. Hell, I'm probably one of the few people that actually like the original version of Handle Ur Buziness better than the DJ Premier remix (which I see on a lot of lists up there). But I digress. These niggas went hard on this shit for real, especially Fame. People tend to forget this banger here. Time to remind 'em

10. Face Off 2k1
http://youtu.be/RVMZzKJY3GY
Another Premier switch up track. Bill screams his heart out on some 'grown Danze shit' and Fame bops all over the track who-riding on whomever with his 'aluminum ass whipper in the front seat'. Can't tell you which side of the coin is better on this one, but they both seriously fuck up this Works of Mart production


Top to coming tomorrow

32. "And now, the Top 10"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Yeah I'm upping this a week later. Never had time to post my Top 10, as it was hard enough to do teh honorable mentions. So here we go, in no order:

1. How About Some Hardcore
http://youtu.be/HWcfmkslT48

The shit that started it all. BAnned from many a club in NYC as it was known to start a riot. To keep it 100, I actually DID NOT LIKE this shit when it first dropped. If memory serves, it ended up on the House Party 3 soundtrack. I was thining 'how the hell can you be hard on House Party?". I've been doing pennance ever since... Saw them perform this live at the Smokin' Grooves tour. Absolute madness...

2. World Famous
http://youtu.be/l0GXWBCmH5Q

The first time I heard this shit was on a '96 DJ Clue mixtape months before the album dropped. I think I playd this shit so much the tape popped. Twice. I have rode for these dudes ever since. Big Jaz with the ill Donnie/Roberta sample, Fame throwing shots at Smoothe da Hustler (I'm outspoken/niggas language is broken/record labels need to stop that wack shit they be promotin'), verbal gunshot effects... That shit still bangs. One of the first tracks I'd play to anyone unfamiliar with MOP, for sure

3. Ante Up
http://youtu.be/3MUGAxpI0Bc

I honestly thought twice about adding this to the top 10, as it just seems like one of the songs that your frat boys would cling to, like 'Jump Around'. But shiiiiiiit... This is some agressive ass shit right here. DR Period came back to the fold with an absolute, certifide, undeniable classic, and Billy and Fame tore the shit out of it. Even on the remix they outshined everyone else. As for the video, any time you start with someone getting yanked clean out his truck (which some stations started cutting, BTW) you can't help but like it.

As a bonus, it also gave one of the greatest Sesame Street mash-ups you will ever see. I keep this shit on my phone for a good laugh:
http://youtu.be/21OH0wlkfbc

4. I Luv
http://youtu.be/pi-KqDDg1lw

It's been scientifically proven that every time this song comes on my car goes 30 mph over the speed limit. This has got to be one of my all time favorite MOP/Primo collaborations. The track is fire. Billy and Fame are fire. Freddie Foxxx further makes a case of being 'king of the 3rd verse' by bodying what's left of the track. This shit just makes you feel good and energized while whooping someone's ass...

5. Let It Bang
http://youtu.be/DqjT4APzHGk

This is actually the X-Ecutioner's song (RIP Roc Raida) but it may as well have been MOP featuring the X-men. This is that loud ass, rap/rock shit that they seem made for. Billy pretty much sums up the group in one line: 'It's the untameable, non-flamable, unrestrainable, non-changeable MOP!!!!' So, expect a lot of hollering, gun talk, and asswhoppings, either verbal or literal. Yet another track that will start an instant mosh pit.

6. Calm Down
http://youtu.be/Y9LIboTcPpU

Holy balls. This shit here.... Man.... I can't even.... First of all, the Nona Hendryx sample is un-fucking-believably dope. The drums sound like they're just slapping the shit out of it. The hook, recycled from one of their earlier songs (that they seem to do often with good effect) does anything BUT make you want to calm down. The lyrics.... Put it like this. Don't listen to this one if you're in an office setting. You may end up stomping over to your co-workes cubicle and smashing their monitor in their lap and beating them to a pult with a stapler. Just saying...

7. Get The Fuck Outta Here (Mash Out Posse version)
http://youtu.be/Txhc-YU9jIU

As a side project, a few MOP acapellas were laid over some work from Shiner Massive. There were a few that worked extremely well (like Conquorers and Put It In The Air). This one, however, is probably my favorite. More than at any other time I can remember Bill sounds like your wild ass drunk uncle calmly telling you he will beat your ass and Fame is that little motherfucker that starts mad shit and gived nary a fuck. If you haven't bought this album, you're doing your ears a disservice

8. Instigator
http://youtu.be/8dfg4S0v3SY

I'm not sure how 9th Wonder managed to hook up with MOP. But damn if they didn't make a burner with this one. Notice how yo unever hear anybody talk shit about MOP on the radio, and vice versa? This pretty much explains it right here. 'Y'all niggaz beef over beats, but where the klappin' at?'

9. Fuck MOP
http://youtu.be/KtFm5soxEDk

First heard on the Marxman mixtape, this shit has banged in my system ever since. Calling out any and everybody that had to compromise to get radio play, MOP stands their ground. 'Think I'm gon' sell out, and bail out from hardcore tactics/and celebrate with hatin' ass, thong wearin' bastards?!?' Where the fuck is you're morals, indeed. But as Fame screams on teh fade out, you hate that you gotta love 'em.

10. Breakin The Rules
http://youtu.be/bTe1JtACx-s

To me, this is the definition of a slow burner. It's not until the middle of the song that you realize you've put whomever happens to be standing beside you in a headlock for no reason at all. I mean, there was nothing super spectacular about Premier's track (which was still fire), or about the lyrics per se (though Fame kills it with 'now that I know, that you against me, and you (*slap) you (*slap), you against me too?). But when you put it all together by the end of the song you just started a fight with the entire block, just because. I have litteraly slapped passengers and knocked over drinks all over my dashboard when this song comes on, so I don't play it with people riding shotgun anymore. This one is like 5 times the sum of it's parts. It's classic, no, quintessential, MOP.
