RSAMAN: Thanks, and yeah, that song is a bit sad in some parts, now that I think about it. But I never really felt like it was a sad song overall. Here are some more great sad songs I forgot about earlier: Saigon - Pain in My Life (this song is a classic) Nas - The Rise and Fall (another classic song) 2pac - Baby Don't Cry (Keep Your Head Up pt. 2), How Long Will They Mourn Me, Lost Souls (one of his best songs, along with Do For Love that I mentioned earlier) Chino XL - It's All Bad, Thousands, Kreep, Sorry, Be Here, Talk to You, Can't Change Me, Skin Dizzy Wright - Maintain Earl Sweatshirt - Chum Slum Village - Tainted Love Nappy Roots - Po' Folks Slick Rick - Teenage Love P. Diddy - Pain (off of the No Way Out album), I'll Be Missing You Shyheim - Dear God, Life as a Shorty (the album that these two songs are on - The Lost Generation - is kind of an underrated classic) Ahmad - Back in the Day The Pharcyde - Passin Me By, She Said, Runnin', Moment in Time Wu Tang - C.R.E.A.M. Hieroglyphics - Make Your Move Funkdoobiest - Dedicated (the video to this is sad as well) Mos Def - Travellin Man, Sunshine Black Star - Redefinition, Thieves in the Night Logic - I Made It, Dear God Saukrates - Hate Runs Deep, Rollin Masta Ace - Way Of The World Nas & Damian Marley - Africa Must Wake Up 1 Like |

PhysicsQED: Lol have we listened the same song? This has been a 100 percent sad song since day one. Go listen it again, if that ain't enough read the lyrics, if still ain't enough watch the music vid. |
Re: Saddest Hip Hop Songs by PhysicsQED(m): 12:17am On Dec 01, 2013 |
RSAMAN: It strikes me as kind of motivational/uplifting and excited in some parts though, rather than sad. If you listen to the end part of the 1st verse and the end part of the 2nd verse, when his voice gets louder, those parts stand out to me as much as the more mellow, "soul searching" parts that sound kind of sad. I guess it's a mixture of both, but I never felt total sadness from it like I hear in "Purple" and "Drunk By Myself" and (to a lesser extent) "Poppa was a Playa." But I can understand how it seems like a completely sad song to your ears. I just have a different take on it. |
Re: Saddest Hip Hop Songs by PhysicsQED(m): 2:07am On Dec 01, 2013 |
Now that I think about it, "One Mic" kind of reminds me of 2pac's "Starin' Through My Rear View" (although that song was released later). Some other sad 2pac songs I forgot to mention above: Only God Can Judge Me, Better Dayz, Cradle to the Grave, I Ain't Mad at Cha 1 Like |

Stan by Eminem!!! That song is wow! I even got the acapella too! Talking about Dido, 80% of her songs are so so so depressing and sad... PS: the stan acapella has been the ringtone on my berry for quite a while now |

tspun: (3) Dance With the Devil - Immortal Technique Op na man you be. Storytelling at its best. One thing about this song is that it makes you feel like you were there when the whole thang was going down . The song is simply amazing. One of the best songs ever. @PhysicsQed: You forgot Father's Day by Chino XL. Great song |

Re: Saddest Hip Hop Songs by fubbyy(m): 9:30am On Jan 03, 2014 |
I've been following this thread but not fully satisfied by what y'all call emotional songs or sad song like the op call it Before I consider a song emotional it has to connect to real life story,what's happening or happened in the artist's life not just song being nice,here is my 5 best emotional songs 5 Beanie sigel feat jayz(where have you been) This song talks about their father's absence,how mum raised them single handed, and how they want their pop no more 4... Eminem (stan) Though this song is a fiction written by eminem but it has to make the list because I felt it well 3... Lil wayne (I miss my dawgs) Oh my God,song is so emotional,talked about hotboys begin and end and how he missed all of them,track was danm nice,the story line was good 2... Nas (dance) The first music that brought out tears from my eyes,I went to the mortuary to see my mum,on my way back I browsed about tribute songs and nas dance came up and I decided to download and listen but never knew I was about doing my self more harm , r.I.p mum 1... C murder (damn if they murder me) Hiphop heads in usa felt this song very well because the song dropped when he was facing trials of killing a 17 year old boy that later took him to jail to come out no more There are many but these are my best 5(the ones I remember) |
Re: Saddest Hip Hop Songs by tspun(m): 7:02am On Jan 04, 2014 |
ok your list is gud but do you know some of the song you listed are already in the aforementioned? Yet you said you are not satisfied with the list. Ok y not try and listen to immortal technique - YOU NEVER KNOW, HARLEM STREET, THE 3RD WORLD and find out about real hip hop, not some kind of lil wayne shit you added on your list. |
Re: Saddest Hip Hop Songs by fubbyy(m): 11:17am On Jan 05, 2014 |
tspun: ok your list is gud but do you know some of the song you listed are already in the aforementioned? Yet you said you are not satisfied with the list.you just showed u are not a hiphop head, the topic is not talking about good rappers,its talking about sad/emotional songs, am not even a lil wayne fan but the song had to make the list because I'm giving the poster what he asked for, I miSs my dawgs by lil wayne is a definition of what the poster is talking about |
Re: Saddest Hip Hop Songs by tspun(m): 6:49pm On Jan 05, 2014 |
go back and read you post, you said u've been following this thread but not fully satisfied by what y'all call emotional songs or sad song like the op call it. U have the right to post whatever you like, I RESPECT THAT. but saying songs like EMINEM - WHEN I AM GONE. J.COLE - LOST ONE and IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE - DANCE WITH THE DEVIL are not emotional shows that their is something wrong with your system. Even for lil wayne i miss my dawgs to have made ur list shows you don't know the meaning of sad song. I even daunt if you've listen to those songs. |

tspun: go back and read you post, you said u've been following this thread but notmr man go read my post again, I said that am not satisfied doesn't mean they didn't give me what I want,its just that am not satisfied Saying that lil wayne I miss my dawgs shouldn't make the list has showed me what you understand by sad/emotional songs, some of you listen to chorus and judge the song because you can't comprehend what the lyrics talks about Infact I miss my dawgs by lil wayne should be the no1 in the list, the story line was so much on point 1 Like |

tspun:u are such a big fool to brand lil Wayne track "shit"...... am a big time fan of him.... and wonder why they ain't much of his tracks on this list cos Wayne is good at any field of music he put his work in |
Re: Saddest Hip Hop Songs by liljboy(m): 4:21pm On Oct 23, 2014 |
fubbyy:leave that hater...... he is a blank ingrate |
Re: Saddest Hip Hop Songs by tspun(m): 4:59pm On Oct 23, 2014 |
liljboy:There is no correlation with his metaphors and he constantly switches from topic to topic in one song. There is no more meaning to his music. This guy could have been so much more. When he first came out, with his gritty voice and vocal confidence through the roof, combined with his great work ethic (Name one RnB/Rap album in the early 2000s that didn't have Him on it), he had everything going for him to become a legend among the Hip Hop Heads. That is, provided he could get cracking on his lyrical ability, which at the time was serviceable, but lacked substance. Unfortunately, he went in the exact opposite direction, making stupid generic HoesBitchesMoneyBragging music, making the claim that he freestyles everything more and more believable, and yet, more and more sad. Any cleverness, wit, charm, reliability, depth, or even SENSE OF RHYME is long gone, buried somewhere underneath the titanic mountain range of drugs. |

tspun:. “I had bought Lil Wayne’s album, but I was so busy recording that it literally sat in my CD case until like six months ago. There was the hype about him, but I didn’t see what all the hype was about. I felt like he was good, certainly above average from his singles, but it was like: ‘Is he that dope?’ Then I listened to the whole album and was like : ‘Wow! My man is that dope, Lil Wayne is fucking dope! You’ve got to listen to a Lil Wayne song four, five or six times to actually catch everything he’s saying. We were at a video set a couple of months ago and I’m bumping it in the trailer and I’m like: ‘Yo, Wayne is dope!’.” - Eminem |
Re: Saddest Hip Hop Songs by liljboy(m): 5:13pm On Oct 23, 2014 |
tspun: Fat Joe “Lil Wayne is the best rapper on Earth. Can’t nobody touch him. He’s the only guy who can put out 300 songs a year and they all fire.” |
Re: Saddest Hip Hop Songs by liljboy(m): 5:14pm On Oct 23, 2014 |
tspun: Tech N9ne “I just want to thank Wayne for even mentioning me. I’ve been following his career since he started, just watching him evolve. He was always clever with the rhymes. My own quest was always to get my music out to everybody in the world and working with Wayne is truly a way to get it out there.” “I went into Rikers Island and I talked to him for three hours. I had no idea what we were going to talk about. We had a lot in common. He’s a good guy and I always dug what he did. People just try to slam him because he’s mainstream. He worked his way up to being what he is, so when people say bad things about him, I feel like I want to fight. I know him as a person – good guy – and I have to separate myself and say: ‘People have their preferences, it’s cool’. But inside I’m like: ‘Say one more thing about Wayne, and see what I do!'” |
