  • FeeltheRealness

    Royce da 5’9″ – Shake This

    It describes perfectly what he was going through after being released from prison. And the song is just super dope with Preemo’s beat.

    Beanie Sigels song is clearly the winner of the poll thou.

    xxlmag stays with the exclusive! NICKI MINAJ SEX TAPE LEAKED!! www.loot6.com

  • Dismathis

    The fact that this list doesn’t include “California Luv” by Pac or anything DMX has put out means that it wont even get a vote from me.

  • MF

    Ummmm…

    Picture Me Rollin???? Pac even gives a shoutout to Clinton Correctional Facility.

  • Dre

    what bout 2pac? his first track when he got out was Ambitionz As A Rider. Better than all dem songs listed

  • DJ

    Feel It In The Air came out when he was still in jail, so it’s not a post-prison comeback single, esp. considering that it was recorded b4 he served time. Shit was released while he was in prison too…writers need to do their research or not write about a topic they didn’t experience or care to look up. I remember exactly when the album came out and the single, and he was still in prison.

    Styles P. Can You Believe It didn’t come out until 2006, not 2003. This writer is garbage with his research/knowledge for real and clearly isn’t a true fan.

  • DJ

    Also, you should’ve put Pac’s California Love on here…would’ve won hands down.

  • xxHyPn0t1c718xx

    LoL @ the groupie niggas who voted for gay ass lil wayne & 6 foot 7 foot
