In the Can – The Best Sprite Raps Before Drake’s

 •  News  •  by XXL Staff  •  18 Comments

Large Professor, Grand Puba, Pete Rock & CL Smooth – In between hittin’ skinz, you can catch these cats with a Sprite can in hand.

Nas and AZ – “Don’t hate it, obey it”

Goodie Mob, Fat Joe, Common, Mack 10 & Afrika Bambatta – You can tell how Com “displays his verse,” he “obeys his thirst.” Sprite goes for a post-apocalyptic theme with this TV spot.

Missy Elliott & Kobe Bryant – With the assist from Missy Misdemeanor, Kobe goes for the slam dunk.

    I kinda miss Kriss Kross. Yeah, I said it.

    Either way, it doesn’t matter – NaS & AZ win hands-down.

    • Lowedwn

      definitely co-signing both of those sentiments, the Nas & AZ joint was always a fovorite

        Why XXL didn’t put Drake in the competition…y’all scared to have/see the youngin take an L…

  • B. FLIGHTYEAR

    I agree with Pierzy and Lowedwn Nas & AZ had the best Sprite commercial hands down

  • Worley

    Nas and AZ for sure.

    Now let’s start the real trivia. Nas and AZ rhyming on the steps is based on which group doing the same thing in which movie?

    Pierzy, Tony Grands and $ykotic I know y’all know. Let the youngens have a go at it.
