7. Kanye West, Mikkey Halsted & Rhymefest “Fight With The Best” (1999)
Album: World Record Holders
Producer: Kanye West
Label: Hustle
07 Fight with the Best (Featuring Mi
At the turn of the century (gasp!), Kanye West, Mikkey and Rhymefest were three of the hottest up and coming artists in Chicago. All three were fighting to be heard outside of the Chi, and also fighting amongst each other to be the first one out of the gate. After the World Record Holders album, Mikkey headed South for Cash Money, ‘Fest linked up with Mark Ronson and Kanye bolted for bigger opportunities on the East Coast.
But for a brief moment in time, this outstanding group of Chicago emcees were working in unison at Kanye’s mother’s house. Hard to imagine, right? Luckily we were left with a handful of recordings from this special era, and “Fight With The Best” is one of those tracks.

Biggest mistake on the original list was Ni**as in Paris being so damn high. We basically got force fed that song…smh. Doesn’t deserve top 25 to me. And We Major should have been MUCH higher.
real talk this list is HORRIBLE, where is “Diamonds are forever”, “Homecoming”, “The Wire”,
To your comment I respond: “They say there ain’t no hope for the youth and the truth is there ain’t no hope for the future”
i need all these songs lol
Heard Em Say and We Major are in my top 5
