I still don't think MOP added anything to the song. They didn't make it "hotter" for lack of better term...the track was flames before they hopped on it. That's just me.

Anyway, I don't think it's really a classic; BP2 classics = Bitches and Sisters, Meet The Parents, Hovi Baby...that's it.

That sample from "The Good, Bad, and the Ugly" and how he admits defeat to Nas while still dissing him and his introspective lyrics? One of my favorite Hov songs and Nas is my all time favorite, ironic lol. Nobody mentioned the title track off Blueprint 2!

Replace 'Dope Man' with 'Blueprint (Momma Loves Me)' imo that is one of Hov's greatest songs. Very good list though, i think most people would agree but my personal all time favourite Jay song is 'Feelin' It' Reasonable Doubt > many rappers' existance good read, agree with 99% of the list though.

Goo list. Regrets is one of my all time favorite songs and a very overlooked song at that. BP2 gets too much shit. There were some bad songs on it, but the songs that hit....hit HARD idk how anyone coul say MOP didnt add anything to the U Dont Know Remix. Jay had the lyrics, but MOP was the heart of that song. without them on that song it wouldnt be one of my favorite joints. I agree with most of the track choices. Goo list.
