My Top 100 Hip Hop Songs………

Rolling Stone asked me to vote on the top 100 hip hop songs ever.
These are my picks, sort of in order:

Es sind keine großen Überraschungen dabei muss ich sagen, dafür aber zu gut 70% Songs, die auch bei mir landen würden und schon beim lesen gute Erinnerungen und Gefühle wecken.

Einige der Tunes sind für mich allerdings derart ausgelutscht, dass schwer fällt nachzuvollziehen warum diese in einer solch illustren Aufzählung landen. Aber möglicherweise ist das ein Problem, dass nur DJs haben…Ich sag nur Ante Up.

Den Rest gibt’s nach dem Klick.
