#93. De La Soul "Keepin' the Faith"
Year: 1991
Produced By: De La Soul Is Dead
Album: Prince Paul and De La Soul
Label: Tommy Boy
Any song by De La Soul that is about relationships or sex is bound to be funny, disconcerting, sarcastic, disturbing, true to life, and catchy as hell. "Keepin' the Faith" fulfills all of these requirements, and it breaks up the gloominess of most of the rest of De La Soul Is Dead.

#63 used to be my joint...bumped it in the whip constantly...that is an example of a hip-hop song that is perfected, stripped down beats and rhymes....crazy

I don't care who you are—if you were even remotely curious about the process of producing hip-hop music, your mind was blown the second you realized that Tribe had turned Minnie Ripperton's whistle-pitch vocals into an instrument ^^^^^ This.
