The “GOAT” Wouldn’t Make This Song Bruh
I recently floated out the idea of curating a playlist of the worst songs I could find from rappers who would generally be considered some of the greatest of all time. I wasn’t sure if I actually wanted to do it at first, but the idea got a lot of attention and support. People were asking me to post it on Twitter when I was done putting it together. I posted it on my Patreon page yesterday morning, but here it is for the rest of y’all now.

Certain artists such as 2Pac or Lupe have songs that I dislike, but none that I felt were excessively unlistenable enough to qualify for this playlist. Honestly, as much as I dislike Drake, I really struggled to find a song from him that felt bad enough for this playlist as well. He has a lot of songs I dislike, a lot of songs I’d even say I hate, but I couldn’t really find any that were like completely unlistenable. I’m gonna do a commentary video about this for Patreon, so sign up if you wanna see that. If you have any other artists you think should be on this list let me know. ✌🏽

(Even if both Willie & KRS-One got... problematic later in life. I wish someone had "soundbombed" KRS's performance for Eric Adams by playing "Black Cop" over a huge sound system.)
Boogie Down Productions dropped Sex and Violence on Feb 25, 1992. At One Shot Records, we locate hard-to-find hip-hop posters, vinyl, and memorabilia. Do you need that rare Robert Williams BDP poster? We find what others can't.
Damaged for sale.
Started my day with some Poetry by Boogie Down Productions

🎵 Sound of da Police
Boogie Down Productions, By All Means Necessary, 1988 on Jive
Second album from KRS-One under the Boogie Down Productions moniker, after the 1987 killing of Scott La Rock. Arguably the birth of socially conscious hip-hop, undeniably a key album in it.
So, you’re a philosopher?
Yes, I think very deeply
In about four seconds, a teacher will begin to speak
Let us begin, what, where, why or when
Will all be explained like instructions to a game
Did not know in listening to this back in ’88 that all these years later I’d be vegan and KRS-One would be 60 years old.
My copy is the 2024 Vinyl Me, Please reissue on 180g orange vinyl, with listening notes by Elijah Watson. Sounds great and has solid packaging – I hope VMP’s return under new ownership can keep the quality high.
