Voted for 'past decade' but yeah other decade polls would be cool too.

old school ends five seconds into Kool Moe Dee's verse in the Busy Bee battle at Harlem World in 1981, you can literally hear the audience's entire context for hip-hop change in real time

How about greatest diss tracks? Or greatest ongoing diss battles (eg Cypress Hill / Westside connection, Ice Cube / NWA etc)

A poll would be worse than a plain old thread for the latter

So, would people be cool with the winner here? And if that goes well, maybe we’ll move on to the other decades?

I think I would still do 70s+80s together though, as I don’t think there are enough songs (let alone making sure they are worth everyone voting for) from 70s hip hop, let alone albums.
Also, unless you all hate it, I’m gonna be quite loose with genre boundaries, obscurities and instrumentals. If it feels like hip hop and people wanna vote for it, then it’ll give Whiney more to complain about when the rollout happens.
