What's your favorite story telling song?

Postby SlimShadyX313X » Feb 26th, '11, 03:03

Well, just wanted to bring this out, what is your story telling song. If you dont know what that is, it's like a song that tells a story.

Mine is Eminem-Yellow Brick Road, the story in that song is great.

“Dealing with backstabbers,
there was one thing I learned. They're only powerful when you got your back turned.”

Brain damage, ever since the day I was born
Drugs is what they used to say I was on
They say I never knew which way I was goin
But everywhere I go they keep playin my song.

Stan - Eminem
Yellow Brick Road - Eminem

Get Down - Nas
One Love - Nas
Rewind - Nas
Ballad of Worms - Cage
Stripes - Cage
Student Body - Kristoff Krane
You Never Know - Immortal Technique
Chris Dolmeth - Hopsin
In My Sleep - Joe Budden

The Boy With No Name - Bop Alloy

Come to think of it, most of my favorite songs are based around story telling.

"97 Bonnie and Clyde" is up there. May still be his most impressively twisted, paradoxic concept song yet too. The nuance of it, the baby talk to explain to the listener yet make it contextual, it's brilliant.

I think mentioning Hopsin and not mentioning "Sexy Cyber" is sacrilegious!
