    d---
    always felt it was pretty highly regarded
    fair enough fair enough

    edit
    to be fair the words are weapons verse is a whole story, and I still think parts of the criminal verse are better

    but I do like the criminal verse a lot so that mighta factored into the decision

    also I took verse to mean album verse like in a vhvhvh song, are groundhog day and rabbit run verses?

    Inspectah Deck on It's Yours is probably my favorite, but realistically its probably not his best verse on the album, Triumph is.

    Also love this Ghostface verse

    Peter Parker your boy

    I'd look at Illmatic, TBA, something from the 36 Chambers or Triumph, Kanye's Never Let Me Down probably, something from Atmosphere... This is too hard to pick one verse, maybe I'll think of a few from different rappers later and post them.

    If I had to choose an Eminem verse, that'd be his 3rd in Sing For The Moment.

    Tell Hova don't pass the crown so soon.. Unless he got a crown for every writer in the room.. There's too many spirits on these ghostwritten tunes.. So you can't crown the heir until you seance the room.. - Pusha T

    not the greatest but it's underrated.

    Eminem hellbound verse is silly as well

    kinda crazy how he could make goat verses back in the day and not even knowing such song existed for 10 years
