Jay-Z is one of the rappers with the biggest repertory ever. Hes been singing for a long time now and has been as successful as he can be. Its true that he has a long list of good songs, some of them are really good, others not that much. But from the good songs list we definitely have to highlight dead presidents, for a lot of people, his masterpiece. Why do we have to highlight that song? well, for starters, in those songs he shows what a good rapper he really is (best of all time for mtv ;) because its not as comercial as his other ones, but he shows how he feels, what he sees and what he thinks the way he feels it, sees it and thinks it, and that what rapping is all about.

Second, the rhymes. Awesome. http://ohhla.com/anonymous/jigga/rm_bside/pres1.jyz.txt thats a guy who can put together a song, and for me his comments, his lyrics and everything about that is different, and then thats why I think it is his best song.

Dead prez 2 is good too, not as good as the first one, but good nevertheless, could be his second best song ever, easily.
