Favorite Hip Hop Quotable/One-liner

[Dids]

Wow.

So many of these lines posted are non-quotable and for hte most part retarded.

'Dub it off your man, don't spend that ten bucks
I did it for the advance, the back end sucks'
- Viktor Vaughn (MF Doom, KMD, whatever)

I guess its more about the state of hip-hop/music in general but I thought it might fit.

wtf is a quotable?


clearly its got nothing to do with the ability to be quoted, b/c thats all that has been done, beyond that Im lost.

A "quotable" is something that is viewed as like a "WOW" punchline. Something that makes you rewind and listen again.

Somebody (Skeme?) will be able to tell you which magazine had a "Hip-Hop Quotables" feature, I believe.

A lot of these lines might be cute, but they're not like "blow you away" punchlines.

i thought this was for one liners, wasn't there already a thread for verses? anyway...

i like the snoop one, my tops that come to mind are em from hellbound verse: [censored] the planet till it spins on a broken axis

eminem as well from "remember me": when i go out, i'ma go out shootin, i don't mean when i die, i mean when i go out to the club stupid

something about drug slang and clever lines about bein a street pharmacist warm my heart...so from jay's PSA: My name is HOV, oh, H to the O-V, I used to move snowflakes by the OZ

still

Meh, I'm OK with simply applying something that makes you smile and go "Thank God - someone had to . . . " such as:

"He came to save the game like a memory card . . . "
-MF Doom as Viktor Vaughn

(Most do suck, though - I'll try to post 'real' ones later)

[Dids]

LOL, Doom upgraded from "memorize like iomega zip drives"
