50 Cent In Da Club is a perfect song. Not too long, 2 dope verses, super catchy chorus that doesn't sound repetitive and an iconic sort of interlude at the start...come on now.
And the beat is amazing
KiNG of NY
Frfr don’t know why this isn’t perfect while DNA is (not to say DNA is a bad song not at all), but I would put DNA in amazing and fif in Perfect👍🏾
yeah they messed up on that
No. No. No.
Gangsta‘s Paradise is a perfect song in my opinion. The mood it gives and how iconic it is does it for me. Everyone knows it, likes it and it never gets old.
Nah
Fr
Not the best tho especially comparing to other songs up there
It's too repetitive and the production is dated.
In my opinion, Pursuit of Happiness is a more iconic Kid Cudi song than Day n Nite, clearly a perfect song
i agree, but i would’ve put them in amazing, not perfect
@@mateonelson3862 nah for sure perfect
@@cadegarcia7354 different tastes i guess
Def not
Ikr shit was a whole vibe even for us down in here caribbean
In da club by 50 cent is probably the most famous /greatest rap song of all time it belongs in the perfect category.
It's neither but it should be perfect
I think Lose Yourself is most famous bro
@@alka9152 actually in da club is one of the most popular hiphop songs of all time worldwide. They're probably not very many people in this world that hasnt heard that song before.
@@alka9152 no it's not
It definitely shouldnt be perfect, yeah its super catchy and fun, but its not that complicated, good lyrically and theres not that much skills that most of the songs in perfect have
Actually "Panda" by Desiigner is utterly underrated when it comes to the impact on Hip Hops commercial success. It's the first song in a long time that went Nr. 1 at that time. After that Trap was recognized as something that has crazy potential to have commercial success worldwide. And look where we are at now, Desiigner needs more credit for that
This is not true. Trap was extremely popular before Panda lol. Future, Thug, Migos, Gucci and so on were already huge acts.
@@BigScoobJ none had reached the commercial success that designer did
@@trenhen4311 Youre buggin. Trap music was already setting trends back then.
@@BigScoobJ I loved trap before this and definitely loved like future and thugga but designer definitely brought trap to the mainstream in Australia,
especially from the pablo album, like they were playing it on Australian indie radios (triple J)
Personally Black Skinhead by Kanye and Panda by Desiigner were the two songs that got me into hip hop and trap
Part 2 with Changes, Runaway, Stan, Hail Mary, Swimming Pools, Love Sosa, Forever, African-Americans in Paris, etc…
I've never heard of that last one. Who was in Paris?
@@extraterrestrial8888 Jay Z and Kanyes song about certain people in Paris, off of their album Watch the throne
@@Dont-At-Me dude it's a joke. Woooosh.
@@extraterrestrial8888 niggas
Humans with more melatonin than the average being in a place well known as Paris.
Love Sosa and Trap Queen should have been on the list
Love Sosa is garbage though

Love this video. Kendrick the Goat but I swear, if he sang the “ABC’s” ya’ll would put a perfect on it 😂.
And just want to say, ya’ll deserve a million subscribers. Can’t wait till the day comes
Dna is grate in my opinion, it's not one of kendriks best songs, it's just a hit
I can hear him rapping it now 😂
first 3 letters of the alphabet, my name
Kendrick is my favorite artist ever but I agree, I put DNA in perfect or great. But also people over hate him just cause they don’t understand his lyrics or the meaning and message being them.
Kendrick's overrated fr....
The fact they chose Rap God over Em’s best songs like Lose Yourself, When I’m Gone, Sing For The Moment, and Stan just really irritates me
Without me is his best song
@@jalenanderson8444 bruh no wtf
Do you know any hot IG models?
Most iconic though
They wer choosing iconic songs not best. Rap God is an industry staple, everyone knows rap god so that’s why it’s there
Kendrick could breathe and people would call it a legendary verse or bar
Did you have a problem with the DNA ranking?
@@PROD_TRG I don’t mind that ranking but I’m talking about Kendrick in general. He’s treated like some sort of rap god who don’t make mistakes.
@@luishuncho2054 HE IS a rap god that don’t make mistakes
@@j0han_xd46 ok bro
@@luishuncho2054 beacuse? Just tell me why. Youre just typical kendrick hater, this man career just went perfect and hes one of the best rappers ever, with definitely best albums ever, maybe you just cant understand his music. Listen for example to alright, maad city, hood politics, art of peer pressure, sing about me im dying of thirst, n95, hii power, for free, hes most original rapper who ever existed, he have so many various flow, concepts, his flow is great, he have many voices, his beat selection is probably greatest of all time, his music has probably biggest influence out there, his lyrics are top tier and I dont think anybody ever rapped about so many topic that good and told so many stories that good, hes popular for reason and so many people love him for reason. Just look at drake for example, hes more popular, but way less people like him, many people hate him, when kendrick is slightly less popular but most of people love him, and hes best rated rapper ever, for example tpab is only album ever made that is rated that good, 10/10, tell me better album
Y'all need to do a Kanye West March Madness Bracket
i think the rihanna easter egg yall talking about is when rihanna says im a paper chaser but if u think about the words big f**kin sl*t you hear that instead
Black Skinhead is a PERFECT song from a PERFECT album🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻.
yeezus gets better with time
DNA perfect and In Da Club is not???
fr, they are tripping on this one
Ukrrr!!!
FACTS!!!
exactly my reaction. In Da Club also better than every Lil Wayne track
@@AGrepSTN2Mno
Headlines is perfect..it has replay value..and dope lyrics
They know they know they knowwwww
“I had someone tell me I fell off, ooo I needed that And they wanna see me pick back up, well where'd I leave it at” still gets me hype asf to this day
It's my favorite workout song
Facts
@@DwntW0rry i know i exaggerated things now i got it like that
In da Club is more than perfect its probably one of the most iconic Songs ever and dre's beat is out of this world
Iconic and catchy doesnt mean perfect
@@RzennikHarranski its still perfect. probably top 3 or top 5 biggest rap single ever. period
@@RzennikHarranski I would prefer to listen to in da club over dna to this day
@@AGrepSTN2M so what makes it perfect?
@@clashwithyourmum8665 and what it changes? XD
i swear to god this podcast needs to replace the grammys
I swear this podcast needs to replace all podcast
@@Whodnl only facts
Didn't realize y'all were such prudes, putting WAP at the bottom acting like every line of that song isn't pure poetic genius.
It made me kind of sad that changes by Tupac wasn't on the list TBH... It's probably my favorite rap song of all time. I still get chills every time I hear it and it's a 25 year old song...
W pfp
All caps when you spell the man name
Y'all should make an episode on the best party bangers 🔥
That would be fire
3 huge misses: Coolio's Gangsta's Paradise and 50's In Da Club are massive worldwide hits that everyone knows that changed the game. Everyone knows the first line of Gangsta's Paradise and it was written in 95. To have that written on the same line as Young Thug's Check is damn near sacrilegious. Also, I love these guys take but don't understand why they hate Tyler's early career. I think Yonkers will stay some of his most influential work. The wordplay and concept of Yonkers was outstanding... I mean my man was dropping triples... and along with a few other cuts on Goblin showed hints of where he would go to. Go listen to Black Skinhead and Yonkers side by side and I think you will see what the more amazing track is.
In da club is one of greatest made songs ….way above Kendrick dna….your buggin.
I think that you definitely should’ve included Forever by Drake, Ye, Lil Wayne, and Eminem
It is a Perfect song
goofball drake
Black Beatles is an amazing song y’all
I would put dna in good or great, very overplayed song
i mean does something being overplayed have an effect on how good it is? imagine listening to it for the first time again, was it just good to you? just curious
DNA is easily one of the best songs here, being overplayed doesn't take that away from it. But it definitely doesn't deserve perfect, it's not iconic yet, idk why it's even on this list.
When I first heard it, I was still not as impressed, guess I just expected too much since listening to GKMC and TPAB
@@bakhtiyarguseinov9402 i think they should’ve used back seat freestyle or maad city instead of dna
@@mateonelson3862 same idk why DNA is on this list, m.A.A.d City is a much better pick
For the ones on a everlasting stroll about the Rihanna thing:
It sounds like she’s saying “cause I’m a big phucking sl*t” instead of paper chaser
On the hook
Wap is very informative tbh
Damn is overrated
Very
No
overhated*
Bro Rap God have 1billion views on TH-cam it obviously have a replay value.
i dont understand why you guys cant place a trap song in the perfect tier...check by young thug and xo tour life are much better than dna and most of the 90s songs you placed in perfect
21:51 “we have 4 in perfect” I count 8 my guy… definitely generous in this tier list 😅
Thank you guy for the consistency!
Appreciate you watching consistently🔥
In Da Club has 2 BILLION views on TH-cam. A song so fire it transcended the rap genre. Michael Jackson himself was in love with it.
Gangsta’s paradise deserves perfect and in da club too, and I think Rap God deserves amazing because of the influence.
Rap God when it came out was iconic... Now it's overdone...
These guys are afraid of oldheads
People hate on rap god because they say it is popular just cause its fast
But I dont care the lyrics and the beat are also amazing
Love rap god
Y'all really could have picked better songs from female rappers for this. I loved the discussion!
A little surprised a song like get your freak on by Missy Eliott didn't make it
I was shocked they put wap in bad. its most definitely a good song
@@shokan5414 you did not just say wap is a good song 💀💀
@@trulylegend4472 it is a good song. you may not like whats its talking about, but as a song it is good and is in no way a bad song.
@@shokan5414 you're tripping
Wap bad content matter but crank that isn't? Wap's lyrics are obviously not deep but they can be entertaining
I agree, it is undeniably the best song ever created. Everything from the beat to the well thought out lyrics and delivery just makes it the best ever.
Lose yourself over rap god for Eminem.
I also prefer money trees over DNA for Kendrick. No role modelz should be in perfect. Aside from that solid list!!
You better know if NFR was on an iconic podcast list they would be at the Perfect because there the most iconic and the best podcast out. Personal songs I would put at perfect is Gorgeous by Kanye, Runaway Kanye, Alright by Kendrick, Reborn by KSG, and many more.
NFR 4 Life
NFR Classic
everyone talks about runaway gorgeous needs more attention
@@raesoda5975 Agree $oda Boy I feel like it’s best Kanye’s rapping performance
Reborn is amazing.
@@danielescobedo2064 you're amazing as well
@@Whodnl Very fruity
Luv Is Rage 2 is my favorite album of all time. There were so many bangers other than XO TOUR Llif3. 20 min, No Sleep Leak, Sauce It Up, Feelings Mutual, Loaded, and The Way Life Goes were all so good.
For the Kanye song you could have chosen Flashing Lights, Stronger or POWER
WAP & You Cant Touch This belong in Good cmon yall
I agree, it is undeniably the best song ever created. Everything from the beat to the well thought out lyrics and delivery just makes it the best ever.
ant’s catchphrase is “that’s a steamy take” and i’m here for it 😂
Day and nite being perfect and no role modelz not is outrageous tbh and I also agree with the take that it’s not even top 3 off that album💀
Y’all stay pumping out the best content!
I will say tho, kinda weird that you don’t think DNA is top 3 on DAMN but ranked it perfect!
You know there the hardest working podcast and the best podcast. Where would you rank DNA?
@@Whodnl best song on DAMN. after HUMBLE.
@@Whodnl id say amazing! FEAR is a perfect song from DAMN imo!
I mean like 80% of damn songs are perfect
@@tropical9913 cool opinion, i insanely disagree
Apple Bottom Jeans or just plain "Apple Bottom" was a brand name from the St. Louis rapper Nelly. Apple Bottom was a fashion brand for women. Nelly's clothing company was called Vokal. Vokal made urban wear and apparel.

Take rap god off this list please 🤮
@@jayp7552 are you black?
@@jayp7552 it is better than goosebumps
@@_bofu imo not really Travis is great
What's so awful about WAP? It's a solid sexual female rap song with both artists giving some funny sexual bars. Between good and mid for me
They put DNA over In Da Club smh..
Great podcast but bro how the hell r they gonna put dna by Kendrick higher than in da club and gangstas paradise come on like if I’m da club and gangstas paradise is amazing, Dna should be great
I think WAP is at least great. It’s so much fun!
Day n night is perfect but not in da club? Y’all lost me lol
Why is wap a bad song ….listen you literally said because what it stands for and it’s just disgraceful…..but you realize all these songs talk shit and have terrible things they are promoting lol…..hypocritical…..just because it females being sexual doesn’t mean it it’s disgraceful …..it’s the same as gangster talking bout killing people or guys demeaning women …..it’s just a fun listen like all these other songs
You're that emotional over a song 🤣
Many men or in da club 👌🏽
Black skinhead is perfect I’m gunna pretend that’s where you put it lol
I knew we were going to have regrets about that placement😂
you guys were too harsh on black beatles, the beat on this one is one of the most iconic beats of the last decade and it literally represented a cutural reset
and it is so catchy
also you said that they have great songs mentioning swang and no type but black beatles is sooooo much better than this 2, specially no type, this song is extremely overated
Praise the Lord is more iconic than Fuckin Problems
Getting some Ben Shapiro vibes off of WAP review
I feel like hating on WAP is the easiest thing to do in the hip hop world. Putting it in the "Bad" tier is lame AF.
Bah it’s just true
well that makes sense as its kind of hard to praise it
Ant is was too lenient on every take. Lu knows what he’s talking about.
Slick Rick Children's Story was and still is the most iconic rap song ever! If you played that in the club or at a party folks would be up,dancing and sing every rap lyric. Hands down.
Putting lil uzi over rap god in any scenario is fucked
Theres no way rap God has no replay value. The amount of views it has is unbelievable. The lyricism alone leaves people coming back to get a more in depth listen, such a horrible take.
WAP being put into the bad category is such an awful take, not to mention they couldn't even articulate the reasons for their rating
black skinhead is definitely perfect. Without a doubt.
One of the greatest songs ever imo. The instrumental, the vocal effects, the “AGHH”. Great song..
Gangstas paradise not in perfect? And dna in perfect? In da Club Not in perfect? Can’t agree with a few pics but it’s your opinion
"Rap God has no replay value"
It has over a billion views on TH-cam 😂
Yeah because Indian Eminem fans who know nothing about Hip Hop outside of Eminem can't stop playing it, these same people think that rapping fast makes you a GOAT.
by this logic we’d be saying Gangnam style has replay value 😂
Are you still bumping Rap God?
@@derond7405 yes is it does, it was played like crazy when it came out and people still listen to it, hence, the over a billion views on TH-cam
@@NFRPodcast no one is 💀💀
bro kendricks verse on goosebumps is the worst verse i have ever witnessed
DNA over No Role Modelz 😂 the meat riding is heavy
DNA is significantly better lil bro
@@combodrop2058definitely not no role models is versatile nobody is bumping DNA get the dcik out ur mouth
only 3 female rap songs and 2 of them were put in the bad tier. goes to show yall are bias to the MEN yall listen to and the misogyny yall have towards females in the rap game (: this was “iconic rap songs” and yet the queen of rap isnt here? wassup with that
"Queen of rap" Do you mean nicki?
@@-Scrapper- duhhh
In da club is a perfect song..
For me:
Perfect: Still D.R.E., In Da Club, C.R.E.A.M, Hypnotize, No Role Modelz, N.Y State Of Mind, Gangsta's Paradise, Shook Ones Pt II.
Amazing: DNA., Rap God, Goosebumps, Day n Nite, Ms. Jackson, Empire State of Mind, Doo Wop, Bad And Boujee, Drop It Like It's Hot, Ambitionz As A Ridah, Yonkers
Great: Crank That, Headlines, XO Tourlif3, Can't Touch This, Panda, Fuckin' Problems, Live Your Life
Good: Broccoli, I Don't Fuck With You, A Milli, Check
Yonkers is not better than a milli 😭
great video as always :)
but i do think that swimming pools is more iconic than dna, stronger more than black skinhead, marvins room more than headlines, and lose yourself more than rap god. i also think that theres some new songs that are worthy of being on here such as look at me by x, lucid dreams by juice wrld and pop out by polo g and lil tjay. all 3 of these are known by basically everyone and i do think will be remembered as classics
humble is kendrick's most played song but if not that then dna works
Omfg kendrick stans are the worst 🙄
I think we all need to take a second and discuss exactly what "perfect" means because it seems to me like we are not doing the word justice. For example we have a short list with several examples of perfect songs. In my opinion perfect is a collum that we should feel comfortable leaving blank on every list until the very rare exception comes along. I'm not saying your choices for perfect aren't good but I am saying our bar might be set a little too low which is extremely easy to do because the bar should be set so ridiculously high that we can barely comprehend it.
Nothings perfect waaa waaaa
Wap has no redeemable qualities? I completely disagree with that tbh. The wild lines from Cardi and Megan are actually hilarious and entertaining and the flows are catchy as hell. That's a fun track and I don't really get your issue with the subject matter either.
But its not iconic . If entertaining lines makes a song iconic than whole dropout album tracks should be here
@@abhaybhandari8256 it’s definitely iconic. Besides the fact that it’s massively successful it made a huge stir. Conservatives across all of America we’re losing their minds over the song. People were also calling it a feminist anthem. It is iconic by every definition
@@ej-oy7ce wap isnt that iconic and tbh now you just sound like you like it just because conservatives didnt like it which is kinda weird. overall youre just a weirdo, and entertaining lines doesnt equate to much
@@ej-oy7ce conservatives getting mad is something like eminem rapping about rping his mothe back in 2001 when everything was censored.
People call anything where women sexualize themselves an anthem
Exactly. Its a banger and the issue is with the people not the subject matter
Ilmatic in general overrated asf
so much hip hop knowledge between the two of you!
you guys didnt even include love sosa...
No fing way Eminem’s only song is rap god till I collapse, not afraid, lose yourself, and love the way you lie are way more iconic
Nah
When im gone
You’ll probably say L take but I don’t see the appeal in NY State of Mind. Kendrick Lamar is my favourite rapper of all time because he excels at both pen game and sonic enjoyment on classic like Alright, S.A.M.I.D.O.T., and PRIDE.. In NY State of Mind, the beat for me is underwhelming and the lack of a refreshing hook takes points off. To me this is just Nas spitting verses, which isn’t inherently bad, but just isn’t enough for me.
You guys are the best podcast no🧢 Can’t wait to see top 10 Rappers of all time😈
u guys are old head bums for putting panda in bad teir and putting every old song in perfect
Drop it like it's hot is an absolute Banger it's perfect you ain't gotta have great lyrics to have a banger just has to be catchy and don't have trash lyrics
No art form is as equally unifying AND divisive as music. Like mfs come at necks over OPINIONS!!
I love music and I love hip hop man, great video guys!
I don't think these are made on tiermaker but it would be cool if they were and you could share it so other people can rate and share their own too
Y'all couldn't choose more iconic female rap songs? Jump Off, Moment 4 Life, Blow Ya Mind, Get Ur Freak On, Savage even Lemon????
U gotta make another video, like a part 2. You can't have a video like this without GKMC, TPAB, TCD, and MBDTF. This comment may seem like criticism but it's not. I really liked this video. Good job guys, keep up the good work!
DAMN was pretty damn mediocre but I love DNA
2nd part songs:
Gucci Gang
Goosebumps/Sicko Mode
God's Plan
Rockstar (by Posty)
Rockstar (by Dababy)
All Of The Lights
Lucid Dreams
Not Afraid
Magnolia
Agreed with Goosebumps, Sicko Mode and Not Afraid. Not a huge fan of Travis, Eminem and Drake but I love some of the big hits and even random songs that don't go corny. But those 3 songs are amazing
They put future's fuck up some commas and young thug's check over the fast rap freestyled legendary Eminem song RAP FUUUUUUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD
(breathing)
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
I can't accept that in da club is not perfect
Bro just put "Rap God" at Great.
Wtf is wrong with you.
You should put at least "Amazing" if you even don't like Rap God.
How is in da club not perfect🤯🤯🤯
Rap god in the same category of goosebumps? Really?
WAP being in the bad category is complete ignorance to the female experience. The fact that you don’t care for the content matter is fine, but to disrespect the content in the way you did is completely immature. A song with bars about women owning their sexuality, with a catchy sample and refrain. It’s a strong club banger for lots of females out in the clubs. Plz check yourself I beg.
nigga you cappin out ur ass with this one
There’s nothing good about the song. Idc about the lyrics but the song just doesn’t sound good
The thing is I get if you don’t like WAP but please can people stop going “it’s a bad influence” I mean come on look at how some songs talk about taking drugs or objectifying woman and it seems only wrong to objectively when women do it. Point being I don’t like the song but stop acting like it’s somehow any worse than lollipop by lil wayne or 90% of dababy and lil baby’s catalog
Not having headlines as not a perfect song is crazy. It was everyone's ig caption or fb status back in the day, has bars, slaps in the club til this DAY, and is overall a timeless song, as well as XO tour life
