Dress Archie's Great Rap Verses (Song #1: Too $hort-Gettin' It)
First off I want all the contributors to know this is meant to be an ongoing collaborative effort between all of us and our readers to compile a list of great rap verses. I mean how often do you hear a great verse get ripped and want to either compare it to another verse or see how it stacks up on great verses of all time? I know this happens more frequently then some might expect. And these are in no particular order, so we don't need one winner, and this is something that all the contributors should be able to participate in. But don't post any weak shit.
Too $hort- Gettin' It (Verse 1)
First off let me say that this song sounds greatest by far when the listener is blazed out of their mind. That being said, $hort Dog breaks the mic on his first verse. The funky horns and slow winding beat goes absolutely perfectly with $hort's verses and rhymes. He tells the tale of growing up in Cokeland while teaching all the young players how to play the game. Short Dog acts his age here (unlike in songs like Shake That Monkey or Blow the Whistle) and straight up preaches to all of us. Throw in a classic 90's reference (R.I.P. Johnny Cochran) and you got yourself a classic verse. Here's to you Short. Get in where you fit in.
Out like J-Kidd.

Great idea hungry. I already got my first verse lined up. You know.
"I swing funky rap routines and tap your jaws..."
