If there is a better MC that catches you from the jump like P then please name them.

Here are some of Prodigy's best opening bars.

'I break bread ribs hundred dollars bills, peel off on ducatis and other four wheels'

'I put my lifetime in between the paper lines, a quiet storm n1gga who fight rhymes'

'I got you stuck off the realness, we be the infamous You heard of us, official Queensbridge murderers'

'There's a war goin' on outside no man is safe from You could run, but you can't hide forever From these streets that we done took'

'Yo it's the P. E. double push a Lex bubble in the winter You can't come alone only the hoes can enter Told him to meet me at six on the hill at the center'

'Yo, disperse from off this, who the culprits That claim to be the newest, rappin' bullshyt My rhymes get Ruger endorsements'

'Yo, NYC, U-N-I-verse, seriously Havoc and P — Queens nikkas, so it seem to be Monopolize, strategies of war, exercise'

only one I can think of that comes close is Deck

but Prodigy is definitely the best at this:wow:

Yeah Deck is always fire, even Ghost and I would also say Scarface but Prodigy is always a potent opener.

*Mobb balling out at some club then getting into conflict on some player hater shyt*

*BRAP*


"I opened my eyes to the streets, where I was raised as a man,
And learned to use my hands for protection,
In scuffles, throw all my blows in doubles,
I'm coming from Queens, mudafaka carrying guns in couples"

*While rapping to a beat that could only be produced by Sith Lord himself"

Dude is the closest to Donald Goines.

The real vivid and detailed pictures with poetic rhythm and bounce. It's hard to duplicate.

But Pac is good at opening verses too.

'I bet you got it twisted you don't know who to trust so many player hating n1ggas trying to sound like us'

'Perhaps I was addicted to the dark side, somewhere in my childhood witness my heart die'

'Bury me smiling with Jewels in my pockets, have a funeral and let every Rapper rock it'

You could make a serious argument for Pac being #1.

Let me guess Jigga man huh? I hear Jay a few openers here and there but Jay is a complete package he maintains dopeness throughout his verses I dont know about straight off the Intro like P and Pac. Jay voice too soft for that.

Prodigy, Face, and Pac are the best at it to me;

Brad:

"At night i cant sleep, i toss and turn, candlesticks in the dark, visions of bodies being burned, 4 walls just staring at a nikka"

"now as i open up my story put your blaze to your blunts, so you can picture thoughts slowly off of phrases i wrote"

"snuck up behind him, had my pistol in my pocket...."

"now the funeral is over and all tears are dried up"


Pac

"theyll never take me alive, getting high with my 45, cocked on these suckas, time to die"

"i bet you got it twisted, you dont know who yo trust, so mamy play hating nikkas trying to sound like us"

"so many battle field scars, while driven in plush cars, cuz life as a rap star..."

But prodigy was elite at it.
