From BEST to WORST: List The Top Reaches (Bars) In Rap/Hip-Hop History

[postnutclarity]

I thought about making this thread a while ago then I forgot about it. But listening to this song quickly reminded me:



Hearing 2 Chainz say

Yea, lobster rolls for an appetizer
Bad red bytch give me a lap-etizer

Had me roaring with laughter. A "lap-etizer" my nikka?

Really?


Anyway, what are some of the best or worst reaches in rap to y'all?

Had to get a driver just to drop me at the airport
Way I smoked the blunts man I burned 'em up like Newport

Rhyme airport with Newport and think youre the shyt brehs

A couple other examples that popped up in my mind:

Look dog, I don't run with the poodles
Difference is, I'm eating in Rome and you eating Roman Noodles

and

Don't ever fix your lips like collagen
And say something when you gon' end up apolog'ing

Personally, I think Banks and 'Ye made these reaches work for them. I mean, these were reaches but I wouldn't rank them at that absurdly comedic level of the Chainz line I referenced. Both got their points across without venturing too far outside of the box.
