I guess there's 2 ways to come at this question - best rap from a lyrics point of view, and best delivery.

I do like Acknowledge Me on both these counts. There's a certain bit where it is very breathless, the lines start as soon as the last stops, that's nicely done. I like the 'U wanna get with dat or dis, acknowledge me baby, or you can....kiss' 'cos you know without the pause it probably should have ended with 'or you can kiss my ass'.

nod I don't really consider it rap; though it's more than just speaking but it's certainly not singing.

Who knows what it is? Not me. smile

Because of the flow, production, and underlying message, I consider "Race" to be a staple influence on the music I'm making today. nod

Face Down is excellent imho. I dont know if it's considered real rapping though.
When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

Do you think Prince raps his best on SEXY MF or RACE?

Neither: Best rap is 18 and over and the Flow

Push - That off-key moaning a the beginning of the rap is priceless and the sinister laugh at the end???

The list of his great rap influenced music is too vast to pick out just one. The man has skills. Whether you want to hate and call rappers untalented thugs or embrace it, HE CAN RAP VERY WELL. Some of my favs are hip hop influenced. Im gonna list them anyways.

Gett Off
ICP&C
SEXY MF
Acknowledge Me
Big Fun
Come ON
18 & Over
Face Down
too many to name them all.....
(Insert something clever here)
