    Word to mother - some of ya'll need remedial music lessons.

    1 bar = four handclaps. "Day One" is two bars, as is Fat Joe.

    Special Ed's "I Got It Made" = one bar and a definite contender for the prize here.

    And I'd give a vote to "The Choice Is Yours (Revisited)".

    But yo: Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock: It Takes Two.



    I rest my case.

    technically, that's half a bar isn't it?

    "even though what we do is wrong-

    "wrong , wrong , wrong , wrong" etc.

  • technically i kinda think the little drum breakdown after every 8 bars might make that beat ineligible...as well as the little just blaze signature chord thats spread over 2 loops(that little "power up" sounding shit that comes right before the drum break)...but its cool

    yeah that freeway is half a bar

    Most of my favorite rap songs are 1-bar loops. They hit harder and there's less room for wankery.

    How about "Arrest the President"?

    NAh! but now that you mention it is a one bar loop! but damn I know Bomb squads got some one bar looped gold too!

    I'd say Ice Cube's "Steady Mobbin'," but I guess the changeups in the chorus make it ineligible. Still, it's a dope-ass loop.

    Speaking of the Bomb Squad:
