"Brenda's Got A Baby" deserves an honorable mention.

Don McLean - American Pie

It's all about the death of Buddy Holly in the plane crash, and it's also a metaphor for the death of Innocence in music.  It's got so many analogies in it, it's untouchable.  I'll post the lyrics up later.

There are so many dope storytellin' songs. One of them is "Casualties Of A Dice Game" by Big L:

Spotted some niggaz trailin', so I picked up the phone/
Called Bones, I said 'Yo son, I'm on the run/
Need your help before I get done/
Meet me downstairs, bring your big gun'/
I don't believe this, this nigga said he can't make it/
'Cause some bitch is in his house butt-naked/
And then he hung up/
And this supposed to be my man and he don't give a fuck/
That duck sold me out just to get a nut, what?  :o

The dopest storytellin' song of the new ones is "No Return" by Canibus. He's tellin' a story about 09.11. At the end he dies :'(
