Here’s a few tracks from hip-hop history that you might have overlooked, give them a listen and then go impress your friends with your newfound knowledge. Let’s start with a bit of Eminem…
This was basically Eminem’s first track ever and honestly, it might be his best. Just check out the rhyme scheme in this bar: “Man I got evidence I’m never dense and I been clever ever since/My residence was hesitant to do some shit that represents the M-O”
This is where it all began — DJs taking the “break” section of funk and soul songs and looping it to create the first hip-hop beats. Party people, it’s time to get funky.

Wu-Tang used to have internal battles in order to figure out who got to spit on tracks and luckily, they released this one. Enjoy two of Wu-Tang’s best doing their jam.
