AZ's song "Sugar Hill" is the greatest Hip Hop song of all time

[BIGDENNIS10UK]

The greatest Hip Hop Song of all time is either The Message or The World Is Yours but Sugar Hill is top 10.

It’s shook ones pt 2, but I agree sugar is great.

25 years from now, I bet you "Lose Yourself" will be considered the best rap song ever.

Yo real talk somebody tried to use that song as Em being as good a storyteller as Nas and I legit was disgusted. I wanted to slap him. Lol

Sugar Hill just puts you in a good mood, it's the musical equivalent of smoking herb and sipping champagne poolside. AZ was so natural making tracks like this

Exactly, bro!!!!!!!

It’s a classic and certainly underrated in terms of the GOAT hip hop song lists, it doesn’t really get mentioned enough

Cuz preferring AZ over Nas back then was crazy talk.

Today it's clear who the bigger talent is. But back then you couldn't tell me Nas was nicer. I wasn't tryna hear it

I don't remember that at all tbh.

Interestingly, rap was moving away from the ruff, rugged and raw into the smooth stuff. Was this period the beginning of the "Big Willies". How was this era in NYC? Did every corner crews running around calling themselves that way? What about the swift transition into Italian/mafioso rap right after?
I've been bumping this remix a lot lately.

 

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

AZ got a dope rap voice.

And sugar hill bangs

 

[BigMoneyGrip]

Another MTume classic
