    Eminem (5) vs Dr. Dre (6)
    Lose Yourself vs. What's The Difference
    Stan vs. Keep Their Heads Ringin
    Without Me vs. Kush
    Rock Bottom vs. Natural Born Killaz
    Deja Vu vs. Let Me Ride
    Till I Collapse vs. f--- With Dre Day
    Brain Damage vs. Forgot About Dre
    I'm Back vs. I Need A Doctor
    Guilty Conscience vs. Nuthin But a G Thang
    The Real Slim Shady vs. Still DRE
    My Name Is vs. The Next Episode

    A lot of these were extremely close match ups—hated voting against Let Me Ride and Brain Damage. Funnily enough two songs with a standout Em verse helped Dre win here.

    50 Cent (5) vs Nelly (6)
    In Da Club vs. Grillz
    If I Can't vs. Air Force Ones
    Many Men vs. Hot in Herre
    p---- vs. p---- Juice
    When It Rains it Pours vs. EI
    Outta Control (remix) vs. Luven Me
    I Get Money (remix) vs. Country Grammar (Hot s---)
    Patiently Waiting vs. Ride Wit Me
    Life's On The Line vs. Dilemma
    The Man vs. Here Comes the Boom
    Window Shopper vs. Just a Dream

    In da Club is one of the few 50 songs that could beat Grillz for me. Another close match up, but Nelly takes the edge slightly.

    Young Thug (5) vs. Lil Wayne (6)
    You Said vs. Fireman
    Tsunami vs. 6 Foot 7 Foot
    Webbie vs. Right Above It
    Thief in the Night vs. Got Money
    She Wanna Party vs. She Will
    Best Friend vs. Best Rapper Alive
    Halftime vs. A Milli
    Digits vs. Go DJ
    Hot vs. Lollipop
    Relationship vs. Hustler Musik
    Pick Up The Phone vs. I'm Me

    Tough break for Thug having Digits and Hot going up against Go DJ and Lollipop. PUTP vs. I'm Me was prob the hardest choice for me. One thing I love about Thug is how different everyone's lists for this stuff looks but the lists are never bad.

    J Cole (X) vs Travis Scott (X)
    No Role Modelz vs. Oh My / Dis Side
    Return of Simba vs. Quintana
    Killers vs. 3500
    2Face vs. Pick Up The Phone
    Lost Ones vs. Upper Echelon
    See World vs. Drugs You Should Try It
    Is She Gon Pop vs. Highest in The Room
    Before I'm Gone vs. Butterfly Effect
    Dolla and a Dream 2 vs. Goosebumps
    The Good Son Part 1 vs. Antidote
    Breakdown vs. Sicko Mode

    Abstaining from this one because I'm not a big cole fan and I honestly can't remember what any of these songs sound like besides No Role Modelz.

    Side note: I hate that PUTP counts as a Travis Scott song because that piece of s--- literally stole the files for it and recorded Starrah's vocals as his own.

    Future (8) vs Lil Uzi Vert (3)
    The Percocet & Stripper Joint vs. XO Tour Life
    You Deserve It vs. Money Longer
    Thought it Was a Drought vs. New Patek
    Used To This vs. You Better Move
    Mask Off vs. Neon Guts
    Truth Gon Hurt You vs. Super Saiyan
    Benz Friends vs. You Was Right
    Perkys Callin vs. Dark Queen
    Sorry vs. Sauce It Up
    March Madness vs. Baby Pluto
    Codeine Crazy vs. Futsal Shuffle
    Uzi also got an incredibly tough time here having Money Longer vs. You Deserve It, Futsal v Codeine Crazy, Sauce it Up vs. Sorry, Used to this vs. You Better Move—all some of my fav Uzi songs. Neon Guts is easily better than Mask Off for me but I know that's not the case for most people so that's another tough one. Might be my fav Uzi song.

    Drake (4) vs. Jay-Z (7)
    Forever vs. Big Pimpin'
    Headlines vs. Run This Town
    Hold On, We're Going Home vs. Hard Knock Life
    0-100/The Catch Up vs. Empire State of Mind
    Legend vs. Encore
    Hotline Bling vs. 99 Problems
    Back to Back vs. I Just Wanna Love U (Give it 2 Me)
    Controlla vs. Can I Get A...
    Passionfruit vs. Izzo (H.O.V.A.)
    Nice For What vs. '03 Bonnie & Clyde
    Time Flies vs. Excuse Me Miss

    Oof, Hotline Bling had no chance against 99 Problems. I feel like Started From the Bottom could have picked Drizzy up an extra win here. I love Passionfruit, HOWGH but it's hard to go up against classics like Hard Knock Life, Izzo. Also I've never been a huge fan of Back to Back or 0-100 but I know those songs were immensely popular and I'm in the minority.

    I was trying wage some psychological warfare in the main thread against @Fire Squad so that he’d put Cams four certified smashes in the beginning so that I could put TIs at the end without a problem but it didn’t work lmao

    Eminem (6) vs Dr. Dre (5)

    Lose Yourself vs. What's The Difference
    Stan vs. Keep Their Heads Ringin
    Without Me vs. Kush
    Rock Bottom vs. Natural Born Killaz
    Deja Vu vs. Let Me Ride
    Till I Collapse
    vs. f--- With Dre Day
    Brain Damage vs. Forgot About Dre
    I'm Back
    vs. I Need A Doctor
    Guilty Conscience vs. Nuthin But a G Thang
    The Real Slim Shady vs. Still DRE
    My Name Is
    vs. The Next Episode

    - This was brutal on several of these matchups. Cracked up once I saw the irony of Forgot About Dre being used against Eminem.

    50 Cent (5) vs Nelly (6)

    In Da Club vs. Grillz
    If I Can't vs. Air Force Ones
    Many Men
    vs. Hot in Herre
    p---- vs. p---- Juice
    When It Rains it Pours vs. EI
    Outta Control (remix)
    vs. Luven Me
    I Get Money (remix) vs. Country Grammar (Hot s---)
    Patiently Waiting vs. Ride Wit Me
    Life's On The Line vs. Dilemma
    The Man vs. Here Comes the Boom
    Window Shopper
    vs. Just a Dream

    - This one tore my soul in two as I expected. Some interesting choices in 50's set, that triumvirate from Country Grammar-Ride Wit me-Dilemma is too much.

    Young Thug (4) vs. Lil Wayne (7)

    You Said vs. Fireman
    Tsunami vs. 6 Foot 7 Foot
    Webbie vs. Right Above It
    Thief in the Night
    vs. Got Money
    She Wanna Party vs. She Will
    Best Friend vs. Best Rapper Alive
    Halftime vs. A Milli
    Digits vs. Go DJ
    Hot vs. Lollipop
    Relationship
    vs. Hustler Musik
    Pick Up The Phone vs. I'm Me

    - Jesus this was a headache...h--- this could have been extended to 500+ more songs.

    J Cole (3) vs Travis Scott (8)

    No Role Modelz vs. Oh My / Dis Side
    Return of Simba
    vs. Quintana
    Killers vs. 3500
    2Face vs. Pick Up The Phone
    Lost Ones vs. Upper Echelon
    See World vs. Drugs You Should Try It
    Is She Gon Pop vs. Highest in The Room
    Before I'm Gone
    vs. Butterfly Effect
    Dolla and a Dream 2 vs. Goosebumps
    The Good Son Part 1 vs. Antidote
    Breakdown vs. Sicko Mode

    - My inner Cole Stan that I thought I locked away in a chamber tried to resurface in a couple of these. Interesting choices from Cole's side, but Travis took this one.

    Future (7) vs Lil Uzi Vert (4)

    The Percocet & Stripper Joint vs. XO Tour Life
    You Deserve It vs. Money Longer
    Thought it Was a Drought vs. New Patek
    Used To This
    vs. You Better Move
    Mask Off vs. Neon Guts
    Truth Gon Hurt You
    vs. Super Saiyan
    Benz Friends vs. You Was Right
    Perkys Callin vs. Dark Queen
    Sorry vs. Sauce It Up
    March Madness vs. Baby Pluto
    Codeine Crazy vs. Futsal Shuffle

    - I had faith Uzi could very much compete in this, but it's hard going up against Future's monstrous catalog

    they got college bands playing Power at football bowl games :whew:

    I think backseat freestyle could have beaten a lot of Kanye songs but Power isn't one of them

    Shouldn't this one be finished first tho? It's a bit of a "f--- u Grimace" if this one is ditched in favour of a new one imo.
