Juice (Know The Ledge) might be the greatest hip hop song ever.

[tuckgod]

It's up there.

Really listen to the lyrics and do the KNOWLEDGE.

It's pretty much a sequel to the Furious Five's - The Message

Sometimes I think the game never really caught up to Ra.

Truly the God Emcee.

 

[BlackDroog]

One of the greatest and a personal favorite. and GOAT hip hop movie.

 

[KENNY DA COOKER]

I'm at war alot like Anwar Sadat!

I use to repeat that line all the time as a youngster

But NO it is not the greatest hip hop song of all time...

It's not EVEN RAKIMs greatest song

 

[OGBobbyJohnson]

Definitely top 5
That baseline + Rakim's lyrics were

 

[nahnah]

It really is up there and doesn't get mentioned enough. Everything about it is dope

 

[tuckgod]

But NO it is not the greatest hip hop song of all time...

It's not EVEN RAKIMs greatest song

The "Great Ones" like Rakim Allah...Nasty Nas..B.I.G...KRS ONE...LL Cool J..Tupac ..Andre 3000 and Jay Z don't have One Particular GREATEST SONG..

These are CATALOG artists...

all Thier work is EPIC

 

[pointproven214]

To speeches at the Audobon, now we get our party on
So being benificent, I bless em with dialogue
They expectin the next testament, by the God
I roam through battlezones with chrome for chaperone
Blast beat with saxophones one of the baddest rappers known
Every country city and borough, sidestreet and ghetto
Isle and alley and meadow, theories thorough enough to echo
When it was one mass of land, with one nash' of man
And the whole mass was ran under one master plan
Since the world's metamorphis, and the plan is kept in orbit
Turntables we spin awkward but needles never skip off it
Rhythms we expressin similar to our ancestors
It'll answer your questions if you understand the message
From the days of the slave choppers, to the new age of prophets
As heavy as hip-hop is I'm always ready to drop it
From the mind which is one of Allah's best designs
And mines'll stand the test of time, when I rhyme

I'm not attempting to discredit Ra's body of work, just pointing out and exalting one of his masterpieces.

You may not agree with the lofty status I gave it, but it's greatness can not be denied.
