I have no favorites but some goodies.
The Big F.U. - "Elzhi"
This Is For Hip-Hop - "The Loyalist"
Secret Wars Part One - "Last Emperor"
Yeaah i love all of those songs but hate it or love it would have to be my fav of those...
as far as all time goes thats hard to say but as of new songs out right now it's probably turn my swag on-soujla boy(and don't get me wrong i hate him just as much as everybody else but this song is great) Always Strapped-lil wayne and birdman, and ice cream paint job but trust me none of those would even start to make the list of all time

Ain't No Fun (if the homies can't have none) - Snoop Dogg, Nate Dogg, Warren G
Award Tour - A Tribe Called Quest
Got your Money - Ol' Dirty *******
top 3 is a hard question, i love so many 2pac, dmx, 50 cent and eminem songs, it's probably like this
1. dear mama or hit em up-2pac
2. stop being greedy-dmx or ghetto superstar-50 cent
3.when i'm gone or toy soldiers-eminem
The best rap song of all time in my opinion is Dr Dre - Still Dre.
The beat at the start with just a couple of notes is amazing.
I have to post some of the lyrics because i can't think of a hip hop song that is as well written as this:
Oh for sho', check me out
It's still Dre Day, A.K.
Before I chrome the lot, can't keep it home a lot
Cause when I frequent the spots that I'm known to rock
You hear the bass from the trunk when I'm on the block
Ladies, they pay homage, but haters say Dre fell off
How? My last album was "The Chronic"
They want to know if he still got it
They say rap's changed, they want to know how I feel about it.
Dr. Dre is the name, I'm ahead of my game
Still, puffing my leafs, still with the beats
Still not loving police (Uh huh)
Still rock my khakis with a cuff and a crease
Still got love for the streets, repping 213
Still the beat bangs, still doing my thang
Since I left, ain't too much changed, still.

Simply put, nobody can match the imagery in his lyrics.
Air born, my thoughts shrouded by cloud forms
The line ravaged in the wake of this ground war
The quintessential outlaw
Eye of the storm, my tears fall as a torrential downpour
The flood, your death wish written in blood
I came in from the cold, clothes dripping with mud
Gripping a club, primitive, a stig of the dump
Swinging a punch, the bad seed picked of the bunch
I drink black rain, take another swig and I'm drunk
Taste venom on the tip of my tongue, my lips cold
Spitting out toxins I couldn't dissolve or withhold
I never sold my soul for fool's gold
So I'm still free, but too numb to feel pity
Some broke down, now the still city's a ghost town
Snowflakes cover the ground in white carpets
Seasons of espionage as time passes
The lion hearted, survival of the hardest artist
My open arms embrace darkness
Still craving carnage and infamy
But even parasites starve in this carcass of industry
You can see me as cynical, trapped in my own gothic vision
Encapsulating chaos in this composition
Calculated like the lies of a politician
Gripping the slingshot, I size up the opposition
I drop a match in the clouds and watch the flames rise
Fire water falling from these grey skies
To paint your train lines, chrome over red brick
Reflective, like a gemstone in a cesspit
Jehst gives belief to a skeptic
The truth neglected like open wounds that turn septic
Infected by the forked tongue of a liar
Now my thoughts are the colour of fire
And my night's spent running the ?
Unspired by the freak show
I see ghosts dance in the trail of my weed smoke
But words are folklore, that survived the Cold War
New World Order and so forth
I go north, ankle-deep in snowfall
Leaping over dry stone walls with a ?
Steam clouds rise from my fiery breath
It's the last twilight before the silence of death
"The lion hearted, survival of the hardest artist, my open arms embrace darkness, still craving carnage and infamy, but even parasites starve in this carcass of industry" = Best description of the state of hip-hop ever.
