I actually like a lot of classic rock (yes even Hotel California, that solo kicks ass) but there is a lot of bad classic rock too. What do you think the worst classic rock song is? What is the most overrated band or artist? I think Supertramp is mid at best, but Bob Seeger is truly dreadful.

If you get into metal you can find some clever lyrics but hip-hop truly has some of the greatest lines ever.

"I'm not exactly flawless,
but I'm gorgeous just like a horse is"

and
"Last wish: I wish I had two more wishes
And I wish they fixed the door to the matrix, there's mad glitches
Spit so many verses sometimes my jaw twitches
One thing this party could use is more... booze"

Are some of my all-time favourite lines.

There's tons of great ones but one of my favorites:

*Where the cash cows actually beef

Blood turns wine when I leak for police

Like 'That's not a riot, it's a feast, let's eat.' *

I just listened to Aesop Rock today actually, funny coincidence

I gotta say though the best rhyme I've ever heard was two danish guys making artichoke rhyme with motherfucker.

original
Næ, jeg bøjer mig ikk' for nogen, motherfucker
Det' kun hjertet der er vigtigt for mig, som med artiskokker

translated
no, I don't bow down to anyone, motherfucker
The onlye thing that matters to me is the heart, like with artichokes

But I love corny and stupid shit. Honorable mention to pitbull rhyming "Kodak" with "Kodak"
