This is the correct list, all others can safely be marked incorrect

1. Childrens Story - Slick Rick
2. It was a good day - Ice Cube
3. Stan - Eminem
4. Blaze a 50 - Nas
5. Shootouts - Nas


Honorable Mentions (in no particular order):
* Friend or Foe '98 - Jay-Z
* Bring the yellow tape - E-40
* Story to tell - Notorious B.I.G
* Impossible - Wu-Tang Clan (Ghost verse)
* Coming of Age - Jay-Z
*
* Niggas Bleed - Notorious B.I.G
* My summer vacation - Ice Cube

Guess I shoulda made it top 10, but 5 is more of a challenge.

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.
