I'd post more story tracks but none of them could fuck with this one any way.
I'd say R.A.'s verse on this is one of the best ever.

don't forget about one of the best storyteller in rap music history and his classic oldschool track:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/HjNTu8jdukA&amp;obe" target="_blank" class="new_win">http://www.youtube.com/v/HjNTu8jdukA&amp;obe</a>


btw. i don't understand this part of the topic title - "We Need More Rappers Like This In The Mainstream". Why do we need them in the mainstream? Underground is the place where good music originate. Underground is a "place" of artistic freedom while mainstream is a place of artistic slavery. Dear god don't let my favourite rapper go mainstream.
The truth is if it wan't the underground i wouldn't listen to rap music anymore. Or any other kind of popular music. Fuck the mainstream...

One of the most amazing story telling tracks, one of the only ones that might be able to compete with uncomon valors.

Forgot about Little Weapon. That's one of my all-time favorite Lupe tracks.

Storytelling is all about attention to detail and few are as prolific as Nas is in that field - Blaze A 50, Small World, Undying Love, I Gave You Power, Wanna Play Rough...the examples could go on and on

LOL Game doesn't have his own style, thats why. He is the most successful hip-hop imitator out there.
