RHH - When You Listen To Music (Rap & Hip-Hop) What Usually Grabs Your Attention, The Lyrics, Instrumentals/Beat, Flow....etc?

The beat obviously. Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying.

BQ: Eminem's.

BQ2: Big Daddy Kane's.

BQ3: The Low End Theory

BQ4: Aquemini

BQ5: I favor Snoop. I don't think Ice Cube has put out anything worthwhile musically in over 20 years.

A solid combination of them all in all honesty. One really can't over power the other.

BQ1: The New Workout Plan > anything on The Marshal Mathers LP. The College Dropout and there is no debate about it. MMLP and the rest of Eminem's discography is awful

BQ2: Long Live The Kane

BQ3: The Low End Theory. Top 3 hip hop album of all-time imo.

BQ4: Aquemini. Top 5 hip hop album of all-time while Like Water For Chocolate is in my top 50.

BQ5: Ice Cube and this comparison isn't even fair. Snoop has nothing on Cube on any given day.

The first and the most important thing is the beat and after that comes flow, if these two things are solid the track is on repeat for me.

B.Q 1 : MMLP easily. Better flow, better production and thrice better in terms of lyricism.

B.Q 2 : Long Live Kane though both are top 100 all time for me.

B.Q 3 : Low End Theory

B.Q 4 : I'll go with Like Water For Chocolate, easily the best Common album but if its ASTLiens vs LWFC then ATLiens wins cause its in my top 5 albums of all time.

B.Q 5 : Ice Cube

The beat obviously. Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying. [2]

BQ: Kanye's.

BQ2: Big Daddy Kane's.

BQ3: The Low End Theory.

BQ4: Aquemini.

BQ5: Ice Cube.

The flow and lyrics

The lyrics catch my attention first
