whats the best concept in a song you've heard?
my favorites would be:
Cam'ron - D Rugs: drugs being personafied was cool...anything being personafied this well is rare. and the moral of the song is cool...even though im pretty sure cam is an avid weed smoker.
Jay-Z - 99 problems: most of the song is nothing other than just a dope song...the cop dialogue though is hot...great concept.
Atmosphere - Woman With The Tattooed Hands: again this track comes up in a thread...it had a great concept with lyrics like "a glimpse of religion, a piece of coming closer to understanding more about what intrigues me most"
Eminem - Stan: one of the best concepts i've ever heard...great ending to a great story...a tough song to play out.
Nas - Book Of Rhymes: a great idea...a song made by going through a book of rhymes....made a dope ass song...just proves that nas is now and always will be one of the best and most creative in the game.

Styles ft. Sheek, Cross & J-Hood - Nobody Believes Me
Styles has conversations with his knife, his gun, his cash and his weed. ;D
-
nice one ^^^
also forgot:
Sticky Fingaz - I'm Money: sticky portrays himself as money and again (like d rugs) personafies an inatimate object very well....this was also done by zebrahead.
and of course DMX's Damien series was very nicely done.
-
I liked 2Pac's Souljah series too.
-
also
Nas - I Gave You Power
Nas - Rewind
J5 - Remember His Name
Wu-Tang & Isaac Hayes - I Can't Go to Sleep...ill shit
Sticky - Baby Brother...great convo
Mobb Deep - Temperature's Rising
prolly alot more I can't think of right now
-
deltron 3030 - 3030
dr octagon - blue flowers
quasimoto - astro travelin
tha alkaholiks - mary jane
common - i used to love H.E.R.
-
common - i just to love H.E.R.
huh, lol? Naw, that song's the shit. Another great Nas joint would be "Last Real Nigga Alive", NY mid 90's rap history. Also Pac's "Me & My Girlfriend"

common - i just to love H.E.R.
UH OH, lmfao, how can i make such a fucken typo?! lol, i just woke up.. yea i know, bad excuse

Ras Kass - Interview With A Vampire
Despite the fact that it's downright blasphemy, it's an incredible track.
-
Ras Kass - Interview With A Vampire
add that song to my list!
-
speaking of ras kass...add nature of the threat to my list...great concept...the history of the world.
-
Ras Kass - TV Guide
-
Sly Boogy - Walk Wit My Dogs
Made a whole year before Jay. Whole song is cop dialogue, not just a verse. Respect it.
-
ONe that comes to mind right now is 99 Problems by Jay Z....That song is sick IMO
Oh yea and What If by Fredro Star Im sure most people would agree with.
Also that Nas song from It was written about him being a gun...Thats a dope concept song aswell.
-
I definitely have to agree that "Woman With The Tattooed Hands" and "Nobody Believes Me" are great concepts.
And why does nobody list The Last Emperor's "Secret Wars"? Definitely very funny! Or what about Tech N9ne's track about his dick? Also very nice. Another one is "Peruvian Cocaine" by Immortal Technique, where every featured rapper has another part to complete the whole story.
But definitely the best concept is KRS' "I Can't Wake Up", where he's rappin' about bein' a blunt, and rappers like B-Real, Redman, etc. smoke him. That's some sick shit.
-
eminem - guilty concence
eminem - stan
rass kass - nature of a threat
nas - the song about him being a gun
biggie - suicidal thoughts
-
Ras Kass - TV Guide
hell yeah!
-
ive always loved the "Regulate" concept... where Warren goes out, and Nate finds hoes and then sees warren getting jacked and saves his ass then they go to a hotel and do the jigga jigga lol...
-
Immortal Technique's "Dance With The Devil"...the first time i heard the ending to that song i couldnt believe it...its rare enough to hear somebody actually dare to write a song about raping a woman...but to have the woman turn out to be the kids own mother...holy fuck that was like :o :o :o but a damn good song.
-
addin to my list
Styles - Nobody Believes Me
Sticky, Redman, Rah Digga, Canibus - State Vs. Kirk Jones
Nas' song bout bein a gun is "I Gave You Power"
-
Sticky, Redman, Rah Digga, Canibus - State Vs. Kirk Jones
