Nas "One Mic": What's your final thought of this song?

[Built 4 cuban linx]

greatest hip hop song? no but a classic

 

[TheGOAT]

Phil Collins sample makes anything epic

Great song but probably not in my Nas top 5

 

[silverfoxx]

I get the message: One mic, the power of a voice and the revolution like theme, but that record just never really hit me compared to songs like Testify, Nigger, Mandingo, I gave you power, Project Roach, etc.

I just dont get the hype still after all these years lol.

It's a classic. The greatest rap song ever doesn't exist to me.

Longevity is what's important and this will rock forever.

One Nas's Top 3 songs.

#3 on my list of favorite Hip-Hop songs all-time.

I feel like its a pressured public vote to say it has to be. Personally, no its not for me. Its a really good song, but not great.

I would really like to hear what makes it so great. Yes im aware and read the lyrics. Yes i know the GOAT Phil Collins is sampled. And Yes i know he is speaking on "my voice is power" type shit but still i dont get what makes it so epic.

IMO

Project Roach>>One Mic.

Its shorter and hits harder. IMO

 

[silverfoxx]

Wack as fuck.

Please explain Chucky

CLASSIC

 

[willywanker]

I hear you thread starter, nas is one of if not the best rapper ever but I never really messed with one mic much.

 

[the known unknown]

Classic track but not THE greatest track in hip hop, to me fight the power is better than this track.

sidenote:I gave you power is my fav nas track.
