Your favorite rapper…. on features
 

Hey I was thinking about this in light of some conversations about Jay-Z and Twista on One Song Only, but thought it diverged enough as a topic to be its own thread yknow.

Who are the rappers that make your face light up every time you see (featuring So-and-so) on the track list? I feel like there are some rappers out there who you may not want a full album of material from, but love to hear 16 bars from them. There are some rappers who do really great solo work, but maybe you think features are where they truly shine.

For me, a few spring to mind. Twista is one where I don’t really need a full album of Twista, but his parts on Cocoa Butter Kisses and Slow Jams make me excited every time.

I think Schoolboy Q has done fantastic solo work, but always seems to approach features as challenges and just does phenomenally every time. I think about Rockabye with Joey Badass, or any time he hangs around with the A$AP Mob.

Who comes to mind for you in this regard? Are there examples outside of rap that I’m just totally not considering?

I wasn't into rap before, but when I heard a new album by some pop singer with a black rapper, I went straight out to buy the CD. Hell, there were CDs when I got my collection of rappers. 1. Eminem, I used to listen to him even when I fell asleep, I like his voice, I could always listen to him although I like rock now. 2. Jay Z also like him but he is more like pop. 3. Busta Rhymes and P Diddy are cool solo projects too. There's a new generation of rappers now, I heard about Soulja Boy and young singers. There are some talented guys, I read on wealthyliving.com that they're already out there, but I still want to listen to something old at home. In the car I like to put everything in a row and all the tracks can be mixed..
