    When you have an amazing song, but then there is a joke that is so bad you only remember that song for the terrible joke

    Too many things, but it's mainly the voice for me, a rapper has to have an appealing voice/delivery or else I can't f--- with the song or the artist, even if they have decent lyrics.

    Mediocre instrumentals really mess up my listening experience. I think it's important that both elements of rhyming & production combine to benefit the song.

    This technically isn't a hip-hop song, but it has a Kanye verse. The song was amazing to me.... The beat, the hook, verses, everything. And then Kanye came on, and I was like "Alright, he is adding a lot to the song." But then he finished his verse with "I couldn't get my s--- out anyway, I hope you die Aria!" :lawd:

    Ruining the tone. Don't put a corny line in a serious song (J Cole is great at this), k--- all the momentum in a party song (Believe Me slows to a stop), have a feature that misses the point of the song (Twista on Cocoa Butter Kisses) etc. I don't necessarily hate any of these songs/artists but it still irks me.

    I was actually going to include that as an example lol. @DCG

    Can't tell you have many Eminem and J.Cole songs have been ruined by a single line because of this bs.
