Default X Rapper's Overall Best Verses

This thread is where you post the best verse out of a rapper's discography. You can define best by your own means, whether that's a definitive verse for their style or most lyrical or best delivered. One verse per artist.

Kick it off with some

Earl Sweatshirt on Danny Brown's Really Doe



He just kills it at the end of the track and saves us from Kendrick's cringy hook (Kdot's verse is good though). It's mostly in the delivery.

Yeah that's his best verse, really good. Saves the track in my opinion, because it's one of the few I would consider skipping without it.

It's the last verse, around 4 minutes in I think.

he definitely carried that song

i dunno if i can claim that as Earl's best, maybe it's cause i like just about every thing he's put out. there are a lot of contenders though...

either verse in this one tbh


first verse of Hive is still the ****




here's a track circa 2012 i believe where he goes off

I think Kno's best verse is on "Things I Dream" off Dirty Acres



Spoiler for Lyrics:
Fumblin' with sweat on my fingers, somethin' impetuous lingers
Become infected with feelings so I'm electing this evil
To end my life without reason cause I'm indicted for treason
Closin' my eyes and I'm leakin', draggin' the knife till I'm bleedin'
Cause it's the life that I'm seekin', feels only right that I'm meetin'
With Jesus seeking redemption but he don't want my repentance
For he who feels my intention sees that my deepest impression
Is feeding me to these demons that lurk and feed on my essence
The pain is deep in my chest and I keep repeatin' my blessings
Ever since a meek adolescence that saw me beaten by freshmen
Parents repeatedly sentenced, heroin needles on dressers
They use to feed their infection, I can't repeat indescretions
So I pause for reflection, long for honest affection
And getting lost in the music is only soothing for stretches
If you knew where my head is when I'm doing these records
You'd never listen to my music again, I can't let you.....

This will be a bit too hard for me. I'll have to dive deep into a lot of lyrics.
