I hate this where they're trying to appease everyone. That's how you get Ice Spice Munch at 60 and The Symphony at 97 lol

Like what?
ice spice should be nowhere on this list

out of the VAST songs the east dropped from the birth of hip-hop to now...ice fukking spice makes the list? :stopitslime:

I always fukked with "So Ghetto" but that ish is not even a Top 200 song ever out of the east coast, let alone Top 10...almost Top 5. That shyt is lowkey disgusting, lol, it looks madd out of place, like "which one of these doesn't belong" type ish.

Was Tekashi's joint on the list?

What a bizarre choice. I bet if you told Jay-z one of his songs was #6 on a top 100 all time list and gave him 20 guesses which one it was, he wouldn't name So Ghetto.
