Weird thread topic I know but I was really taking in #LongLiveSteelo the other day and this might be the best tribute I've heard. Similar cadence to Steez, obviously the lyrics are direct as if he were still here, similar topics to what Steez rapped about, similar phrases, a beat he'd spit on, etc... and of course Joey merked it, whether mixtape or DSP version
What are some of the best songs in memoriam ?

@op the most beautiful tribute I’ve ever heard, to his best friend who passed
“Held me down when I needed it most
Whether shoulder to cry on, or I needed to toast
And would never let me go it alone
Everybody called it the slums, but we know it as home
From where we from, we supposed to be thug
Both shared a different dream, we was closer than blood
Learned from you how to put my heart in a song
Way ahead of your time, was just hard to get on
Ain't gon' lie, just wanted to buy houses for the fam'
Move 'em out the hood, give 'em thousands and some land
Them night sessions of eternal life lessons
That I still use today, when I'm uptight, stressin'
Always said we was veteran survivors
And even though you passed, you'll forever be the livest
Was an honor to see you shine, I was blessed, son
'Cause in the end, as far as friends, you was the best one
Gave so much and behaved so clutch, I love you”
wild corny for this.
anime avis i swear.
it isn't a tribute to another artist but A.P.I.D.T.A. off the Jay Elec album deserves a mention here imo
song of the year last year
The fact Puff got the green light to sample Every Breathe You Take by The Police by using a poverty sample loop still blows my mind to this day
Dance is beautiful
