100 Greatest Diss Songs In Hip Hop History: Ranked

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

Nobody really views that Lauryn hill song as a diss track

That song, euphoria, like that and push ups, not like us shouldn’t be in top 20…

Family matters is 10x better than push ups

The top 8 (besides not like us) is pretty legit in whatever order you prefer

 

[Braman]

Pushups inclusion is laughable

Family matters exclusion is a huge mistake

MTG not even on the list when it should be top 3 not only invalidates the list but calls into question whether he’s yet another compromised asset.

Cultural impact puts it ahead. This has to be a mixture of the quality of the song and impact it had. Pusha T had nowhere near the impact Kendrick is with this. I do think Ether should be number 1. Hit Em Up is overrated to me - still ranks high because of cultural impact.

Only cause Pusha doesn't have rabid stans like Kendrick IMO. If he did we would be talking about Story of Adidon in the conversation for #1 or #2.

"You are hiding a child"

This is not something a diss song should ever be given points for. I come from a time where it stayed on wax, regardless of how harsh. It's the equivalent of a boxer killing his opponent because he got his ass beat. That's nothing impressive. Then sensitive cats took it in another direction......

Context. He was mentioning Ether and cited its cultural impact. Well there is no greater impact than what Hit em up did. That’s not using it as a badge of honor, it’s just stating facts. Like when Time names its person of the year. It doesn’t have to be for good. Impact is impact.

 

[Easy-E]

This was a cultural moment in Hip Hop

HE'S ONLY 16!!!

There's no way any track Kendrick released against Drake is better than what Pusha did. This is why I don't fukk with Kendrick. Media publications just glaze like crazy.

One dude was rapping about a fake daughter that didn't exist and the other exposed a very real child and forced dude to step up and be a dad ffs

Also how tf is Ether not #1. nikkas literally still refer to ether to this day. It became part of the everyday vocabulary like Stan for example.

I know right

 

[Gotright]

Gucci truth at 41 top 20 easily

 

[NegaDuck]

Those 2 should definitely be mentionned

Juicy went OFF on Boo on that one

This is “greatest”. Nothing is great to me about people dying over diss tracks. We’ll just have to disagree.

 

[Nuuko]

[tremonthustler1]

No DMX - They Want War anywhere? Smh

 

[Surreal]

My top 5

No Vaseline
Ether
Jack The Ripper
Meet The Grahams
The Bridge Is Over

 

[g-ice]

Comical to have Push Ups and Back Down next to each other and Push Ups is the one above it. Lose any kind of credibility there.

 

[SilverSamurai]

They riding for Drake hard on this one

Sauce Walka - Wack 2 Wack should have been on this list
