Da art of story tellin'
Rap, that is. Please list (in order of preference) the top 5 greatest story rap songs of all time.
This post is dedicated to using otherwise great minds on pointless, irrelevant, and sometimes comical topics. This we do to pass time at work. Enjoy or leave!

1. Childrens Story - Slick Rick
2. It was a good day - Ice Cube
3. Stan - Eminem

Honorable Mentions (in no particular order):

* Impossible - Wu-Tang Clan (Ghost verse)
* Coming of Age - Jay-Z

Guess I shoulda made it top 10, but 5 is more of a challenge.
For the record, Nasir Jones is the greatest story rapper of all time. Peep the credentials:
* Rewind
* 2nd Childhood
* Blaze a 50
* Shootouts
* Watch Dem Niggaz
* Sekou Story

That's just the top 10. Any disputes?
Lots of listening to do, young Walter, lots of listening to do indeed.
Start with the classic from Franks list "I used to love H.E.R" by Common. Excuse me, Common Sense at the time it came out.
