Best Dedication Records Ever #1

Biz Never Sleeps

It’s always a sad day when you have to pour out a little of your finest malt on the side walk for a dead homie. That’s why dedication records are always guaranteed to bring a tear to our eye, some rappers really know how to push our buttons, even if we never knew their boy Malik from down the block.  So first up we’ve brought you one of the greatest dedication records ever, ‘My Man Rich’ by the Diabolical from his excellent ‘The Biz Never Sleeps’ album. Feel free to vote for the best dedication track in the comments section and we’ll post up later in the week.

If anyone knows which Rich Biz is talking about you get extra points…

    Rich Porter?

    I don’t suppose Dead Homies or I Seen A Man Die quite fall under the umbrella of dedication records to dead friends, so i’m going for these :

    Pete & CL – T.R.O.Y (the goat of this sub-genre)

    MF Doom ft. Kurious – ?

    OutKast – Da Art Of Storytellin’ (Andre’s verse about Sasha Thumper supposedly being about some real chick he knew)

    ABN – My Momma

    DITC – Tribute (i teared up the first time i heard this, no homo)

    Dr Dre ft. Mary J. – The Message

    Cormega – Fallen Soldiers remix
