In Hip-Hop conversation, classic and legendary are thrown around way too easily. However, there remain those songs, moments, artists, and albums that have a timeless stamp and deserve their accolades if not more.

I fluctuate between the GZA and Rakim (never bloated rhymes ever those dudes are vicious). It amazes me how people don't appreciate what he brings to the game. He is the most concise lyricist you will ever hear. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;People need to go get Liquid Swords, and the Legend of Liquid Swords and buy the new joint when it drops. Definitely check out the Legend of Liquid Swords because it was a great CD. Liquid Swords is a REAL CLASSIC. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Check out this hook:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;quot;The fiends aint coming fast enough / &lt;br&gt; There is no cut that's pure enough / &lt;br&gt; I can't fold I need gold I re-up and reload / &lt;br&gt; Product must be sold to you&amp;quot;--From Gold on Liquid Swords. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;These bamas don't know what classic means anymore they dick ride these plagiarizing dudes because they sold records to these kids that don't know what lyricism means. They can go back to snapping their fingers, that shit aint Hip Hop.</description></item><item><title>re: GZA @ The Knitting Factory (New York, NY)</title><link>http://allhiphop.com/stories/reviewsmusic/archive/2007/12/16/19012722.aspx#19014238</link><pubDate>Mon, 17 Dec 2007 00:59:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">0ab0b95d-286f-42d5-ba9b-6086957539ea:19014238</guid><dc:creator>jaeda</dc:creator><description> GZA dissed 50 Cent by name, saying “The ni***’s got no lyrics.”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I co-sign GZA!!!</description></item><item><title>re: GZA @ The Knitting Factory (New York, NY)</title><link>http://allhiphop.com/stories/reviewsmusic/archive/2007/12/16/19012722.aspx#19014304</link><pubDate>Mon, 17 Dec 2007 01:15:58 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">0ab0b95d-286f-42d5-ba9b-6086957539ea:19014304</guid><dc:creator>Squareone1</dc:creator><description>Fuck 50, ABOUT TIME real fucking hip hop emcees start pointing out the wack niggaz in the game.
