NOTE: Judging intelligence is an extremely subjective matter and will always spark debate, however I did abide by some criteria when making my selections. Andre 3000 From OutKast One of the few rappers on this list you should already probably be aware of on this list, Andre 3000, rapper from the critically acclaimed and incredibly popular Hip-Hop Duo, “OutKast,” is one of the most well liked and respected rappers in the industry from non-fans.

Written by Ben Pogany The Notorious BIG- Ready to Die -(1994) Around the years '87-'88, a young crack dealer named Christopher Wallace began entertaining local passersby by rapping into a beat-up amp on the street corners around Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.

Six years later, he was the biggest rapper in the world. Three years after that, he was dead. During the short flash that was his career, only one album was to be released, a top-to-bottom classic with the eerily prophetic title 'Ready to Die'. This album has it all. Sick beats, brilliant lyrics, crazy flows, and that intoxicating voice of Biggie Smalls. Nas- Illmatic --(1994) Five months prior to Ready to Die, this 20-year-old Queensbridge native paired with producers Large Professor, DJ Premier, Pete Rock, and Q-Tip and burst onto the scene with what would be his masterpiece. Dr. --(1992) Fresh off of his split with supergroup NWA, Dre took it solo and ended up creating perhaps the best produced rap album of all time.

He is the creator of the classics “The Commission” (with Biggie & Jay-Z) and “Tupac Duets”, among others. His newest effort, “The Stimulus,” is another great one.

The definition of a good song will always change depending on people’s preferences but there are songs that almost everyone likes. This is a list of songs I really like and recommend you check out. There are so many songs to choose from but it would be hard to list all of these tracks due to space, with that said I’ll list a few of what I consider to be some of the best.

Let me know what you think and feel free to share some of your top songs but first, this is what I believe separates a song from the rest: Keep in mind these are just the songs that I recommend you listen to (if you haven’t already), a lot of these songs are older so by now most of you should of heard them. The first part of the list will be composed of the older songs and the second will be the newer ones.
