Complex x Unkut: The 50 Greatest Queensbridge Rap Songs


Click to read

Couple days late on this one, but nonetheless a great read for all my fellow purists. Robbie from Unkut teamed up with Complex to compile a list of the 50 greatest rap joints to emerge from the largest projects in America. Must have been a pretty grueling task, considering how many greats the Bridge has produced.

  6. How is “Nas is Like” only #38? No way in hell “LA, LA” should be as high as it is either? Anyway, it’s a pretty thorough list, so props for that.

  7. After looking through the list. It’s fucking bullshit.

    NY state of mind isnt on it? NY STATE OF FUCKING MIND? Thats a top 10 hip hop song EVER, nevermind just QB. In fact – the whole of illmatic should be on that list, the only track on it is ‘it aint hard to tell (large pro remix).

    Seriously though. Not a single unremixed track from illmatic. This leads me to believe that the author has no clue about hip hop music.

  8. that list is wack. how the fuck can they not have Kool G Rap & DJ POLO “Road To Riches” not at #2. did I miss something? is even in the fuckin’ list at all? where is Tribe Called Quest “Scenario”? no BEATNUTS on the list? the only shit they got right was placing MC Shan “The Bridge” at #1.

  9. Why is Calm Down so low? Also… should’ve included some old Killa Sha, not that newer track.

    Not a very good list, imo. But I guess I’m too much of a mid-90s QB stan…
