LL, Cube, Kane, and Brother J could challenge, then Busta comes along and wins me over as well. I wouldn't hear Brand Nubian for another year to add them to the list. So Kris had the title in my book.

LYRICS Yeah, come come now Soul brother number two, I'm the one now Sun up to sun down, still kickin' that shit Put your gun down I come in peace like a extraterrestrial being Eat me a meteor and walk across the moon barefeet But don't nobody rhyme like this no more Call me the 2010 Rakim I got soul, there's more in store Feel like a CVS, open 24 Spent nights tryin' to overshadow my shadow For niggas tryin' to block my light like a solar eclipse I bring a knife to a fist fight and when I cut a record So when I cut the cheese, shit you know what it is Mr. Absoulutely the most incredible at this So adjust your bass, your treble and then [Hook:] Yo, turn me up some Yo, turn me up some Yo, turn me up some Turn me up some, turn me up some [x2] Finna break this blunt down and burn me up one Then sip on this Remy 'til it turn me up some For me it's more difficult to be simple than it is to be complex As a lot of apartments You niggas comedy, I'm laughing at you probably We are not the same, there's no strand of monotony Between you and I until we die Revelations say you either fry or fly And it's hard to find God when you ain't never seen Him It's pie in the sky and there's bodies on the cement And I know you lookin' at me like, "You don't speak English" I bring the heat like a phoenix, a son under Phoenix sun And I'm rootin' for the Lakers when they play the Phoenix Suns I ain't really into sports, that's just where I'm from Long Term Two And if it's in your possession then follow the directions my dude [Hook] [Kendrick Lamar:] Come come now Pac told me fuck the world, I'm 'bout to cum now I've been a pro, but now I'm profound Propane on posers, restraining from the doja Imagine if I smoke, I probably come up with a quote So heavy you'll forget every album you heard from Hova Or 2pacalypse I'm Hub City's novelist Come and get your scholarship, I'm taking kids to school A pool full of spit, dive in, I'm 'bout to drool You'll drown trynna backstroke on concepts that I wrote I was a black sheep, but now I'm just a goat And I'm 'bout to elope, married to the game joe This is hip hop at its finest, where'd you find this? In a Ziploc Til the wheels fall off, fuck a pit-stop or what not Where my tear drop? I murdered it My pot-holes is turbulence I'm in the sky wit it When you listening to Kendrick, just [Hook] This for my niggas that really rap all night No sleep, do it with your eyes closed I can see your vision from Del-Amo Poppa took the television, but left the radio Ill niggas, wack niggas, what's the ratio? Is this shit degrading or inspirational? I'll have you know I must've wrote about a thousand rhymes, a thousand times I give you my word [Kendrick Lamar:] Cause I just gotta be heard I just gotta be heard I just gotta be heard Said I gotta be, yes sir I gotta be Heard, heard, heard, heard [Hook]

I use to listen to this man in his prime. I was vibin ab soul all throughout high school pullin in the senior parking lot with terrorist threats bumping through two twelves in the back of a 2002 Honda accord EX coupe. Things were just easier back then. I was so young and lost. Now its almost 2023 and i still find myself looking back on the good times i had, and the lessons ive learned. Ab soul really got me through the good times and the bad, and i find myself coming back to his music at least once a year. Soul… if you are reading this, i need your guidance again. I need your wiseness and will to keep going. I need you back. You touched a generation and that generation is lost without you.

Pretty crazy how all these old Ab-Soul songs used to feature Kendrick, and then Kendrick blew the fuck up, but Ab-Soul didn't. Kendrick has the technical edge, I'll give him that, but they both rap about real shit and their production is dope. It's too bad Ab-Soul didn't rise to the level of fame and prominence that Kendrick did.
