:sign_locked: Voting is over, thanks to everyone that participated! :sign_locked:
NOTE: There are currently 304 different songs that have received at least one vote!
IMPORTANT: The following artists are not east coast - Common (Chicago), Eminem (Detroit), Bone Thugs-N-Harmony (Cleveland).
Alright, here's the deal. I just finished tracking down all of the songs on the DubCC Top 100 West Coast Songs list and have since been inspired by R-Tistic and Hail to Kill to attempt another such list, this time with an east coast theme. I know that Hail to Kill did a list similar to this, and the voting ended over a year ago, with no such list determined. I am not knocking Hail to Kill, I commend him for putting forth the effort. However, I think where the idea went wrong is that the list was to be compiled of the top 50 non-west coast songs. I think that's too hard because there are three other well known regions of hip hop aside from the west coast. My ultimate goal is to have a top 100 list for the east coast, midwest and down south songs of all time. I will start with east coast because it was mentioned long ago in the original west coast thread.
I wanted to throw one more reminder in here, even though this hasn't happened yet, this is not a hate thread. Please leave the discussion for the final list. I don't want the thread clogged up with people arguing about what songs are getting votes. Thanks.
Voting will last as long as needed to get a full array of east coast songs. Feel free to change your list as many times as needed until voting ends.
The scoring will be the same R-Tistic used for the west coast list, albeit slightly changed. See the list below for how points will be awarded.
1. 20
2. 19
3. 18
4. 17
5. 16
6. 15
7. 14

14. 7
15. 6
16. 5
17. 4
18. 3
19. 2
20. 1
Any additional songs posted will be awarded a ½ point. EDIT: If your list is not numbered each song will receive a ½ point. I don't want to assume that the songs are in a particular order unless they are numbered.
I hope that the list will turn out as well as the west coast list, and if it does I will gladly do a top 100 for the midwest and down south. I will also gladly take the time to track down every song mentioned and provide them for download to the forums. Thanks again to all who decide to participate!

LOL, you just caught yourself mentioning a southern artist in a top 100 east coast thread, and then you mention Scarface. I'm sorry but that is just comedy. Wait for the top 100 down south songs list and then worry about Devin and Face.

Damn! I looked at the thread and saw that I had like another 12 replies and thought more people posted lists, only to find that I only had one new list to account for. If you guys want to argue about sigs, that's cool with me, just please keep it out of this thread. Thanks and appreciation once again to all who have contributed to the list.

isint detroit on the eastcoats qich would make eminem form the east?

isint detroit on the eastcoats qich would make eminem form the east?
Detroit is in the state of Michigan, which is considered the midwest. The farthest inland state that I would consider east coast is Pennsylvania, so artists like The Roots and DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince are both acceptable since they are from Philadelphia.
-
Bump.

Apparently everyone that wanted to contribute to the list has done so. Many thanks to all who took their time to post songs. I will finish compiling the totals and working out the final list to upload. Thanks again.
