Does anyone still take Rolling Stone magazine seriously?

After all these years??

???

There's a bunch of songs I do like on that list. Other than that I don't give any credit to Rolling Stone for ever making a semi-decent greatest list, this no exception.

you're reading it backwards lol. B.O.B was 50. Push It was 45.
B.O.B should have been much higher, Push It should never have existed.

I think making a list with the best artists or albums is rational, But trying to collect the best 50 hip-hop songs is an impossible thing for me!

I wouldn't put "Push It" in the top 50 either, but I do still like it and am glad it exists.

yeah thats what im saying, i used it for a school video one time. its a fun track. but not top 50 worthy, there are other songs that should easily take it out

Did anyone else catch 'In da Club' at #20? I've actually been a pretty consistent proponent of that song being pretty decent since it gets **** on so often by others, but it belongs nowhere near a top 100 rap songs list, let alone 50.

I've never been a fan of B.O.B.. I'd take Ms. Jackson or Elevators over it any day.

Also, that list was way too 80's centric, but maybe that's just a reflection of my personal dislike for most 80's rap

yeah the list is pretty simple and predictable. its like a list someone put together if they only listened to the radio and not even any of the artist albums... im happy i saw flava in ya ear and scenario in it tho
