Is that your favorite gimmick/concept rap song Sini ?
wow.... favorite gimmick/concept rap song? i've gotta think on this one.... i mean in terms of just pharoahe and gimmick raps you can't go wrong with part 1 of his bullet trilogy (yes, he has three songs where he's a bullet/gun/etc) "stray bullet" - by the time you get to "you betta pray to the pope or vatican before i go rat-tat-tat-tat-again" you're pretty thoroughly entertained, that is, unless you're margaret's face.
does last emperor - secret wars (which you figure would be up loho's alley) count? i can't vouch for part 2 as much, but "growing up" part 1 was always fun.
louis logic's "the ugly truth" has a nice reveal at the end of it. i think it can be counted as a gimmick song.
you know what? the
blackalicious - alphabet aerobics (cut chemist 2 1/2 minute workout) wins the title. it's the one where he does the alphabet from a to z on top of a flagrantly cut chemist beat (you know, the guy who did a ton of jurassic 5 production) that increases in speed as time goes on.
hrmmm.... latyrx' self titled song thats the first one off of their self-titled LP (i think the song's self-titled too) where they start off with each guy having a verse going simultaneously in the R/L speakers is a fun. it gets an honorable mention...
so to answer your question succinctly, it's the blackalicious one. it's caused many a random pedestrian to look at me funny when i just randomly belt out "UNIVERSAL UNIQUE UNTOUCHED UNADULTERATED THE RAW UNCUT!" on pubtrans or something.
