Unkut.com Presents: The 50 Greatest Queensbridge Rap Songs
By Complex Magazine | Sep 30, 2010 | 12:41 pm | Permalink
#45. Capone-N-Noreaga feat. Foxy Brown "Bang Bang"
Year: 2000
Produced By: The Alchemist
Album: The Reunion
Label: Tommy Boy
The Reunion was no War Report, but thanks to joints like this and "Phone Time," C-N-N proved that there was life after Tragedy. An ill Alchemist beat and a high-octane Foxy Brown guest spot never hurt either, as Nore declares that, "I don't like having sex—I like brains!" before letting us know that Pamela Lee is his favorite snowflake. 'Pone breaks down his gully credentials in an appropriate manner and then lets Foxy off the leash to tear the "Queen Bitch" to pieces and throw her remains under a passing Greyhound.

Come On isn't even close to beeing Large Pro's best beat of the decade. It's not even the best beat he gave to Sha.

Wrong cover tho. This was only released as a testpressing, so there wasn't even one. Also this wasn't actually the remix, but the original version.

Love the list, but if you were really running down the top 50, you would've included More tracks from Illmatic (NY State of Mind, Represent) and The Infamous (Give Up the Goods, Survival of the Fittest). You could even argue for me from these 2 albums alone. Cool that you included some white label stuff that is def dop, but we all know what deserves to be top 50.

The closing line is a classic
