Beat is absolutely disgusting and to me has one of P’s best verses. Personally it’s in my top 3 songs from them ever

Besides the usual list of their top stuff, is this generally considered one of their better if not one of the best songs they’ve made?

[u/CubanlinkEnJ]

Absolute banger in a catalog full of bangers.

FACTS

[u/yaboyjiggleclay]

Including solo stuff, it’s at the lowest top-5. That beat is on another level.

[u/WhoaSantannamah → u/yaboyjiggleclay]

The energy goes up to 1000 when it comes on

9th Wonder also flipped this sample on "Good Ol Love" by Masta Ace

[u/gamuel_l_jackson]

Top 10 p verses for sure

[u/Mkmeathead83]

The GX1000 skate video Roll Up has a segment with Still Shinin and it works so well. Great song, top 10 Mobb Deep songs for my taste

Illness! Mobb Deep masterpiece.

HIGH

Agree about the beat.. it's God-tier. Especially when it switches. The Killa Sin freestyle over that part of the beat is one of my favorites

[u/TheR42069]

It’s fantastic it’s just not a single and made by one of the greatest groups ever, so with such great and consistent output things may not get their just due

[u/jusmax88]

Top 3 for me

[u/WhoaSantannamah → u/jusmax88]

Give up the goods

Temperatures Rising

Still Shinin

List changes every now and then but as of right now these are my top 3

[u/jusmax88 → u/WhoaSantannamah]

I have Give Up The Goods at 1 as well, for 2 I think I have Still Shinin or Trife Life. Temperatures Rising is probably in my 4 spot though.

[u/Latter-Ad-4369]

Song is amazing but no way can reach top 5 Shook ones Survival to the fittest Quiet Storm OG ( no lil Kim ) It’s Mine Eye 4 an Eye. Idk the list goes on

[u/1voice92 → u/Latter-Ad-4369]

It’s better than It’s Mine. The entire Hell On Earth album is top tier though

[u/WhoaSantannamah → u/1voice92]

The problem is they got too many classics to choose from so there’s gonna be bunch of different lists and answers but I will say Hell on Earth is super top tier. Honestly listen to that more than The Infamous at this point

[u/PetoGee]

This album is great. One of the best albums in hip hop, according to me.

[u/PetoGee]

My favorite is Appostole's Warning, very ruff ending of Hell On Earth masterpiece album

[u/PetoGee]

I immediately play this song when I saw your post 😄
