Thuggin'. Pretty much a perfect final 4 though.

Thuggin for me, but it's certainly closer than it sounds.

Thuggin' by a ton. Carissa woulda been a tougher match-up for me (although I'd still go Thuggin') but Azealia Banks is easily the "odd man out" at this point.

212 out of loyalty.

Thuggin easily. Like I said, it's not my favourite from Pinata but it's the most acclaimed song off of one of the best rap albums of the decade. Worthy of the big final.

I think I prefer both the songs in the other match up to either of these (which are still great of course). Going with Thuggin, maybe just because it's been a favorite for longer.

Thuggin'. 212 is good times, but it doesn't have the same impact.

FREDDIE GIBBS/MADLIB- THUGGIN

A masterclass in both beat-making (hazy, swirling, subtly psychedelic; still hard as bricks) and rapping (the flows, which recall Pac and Bone Thugs in equal measure, are dextrous, nimble, and yet utterly legible... I can't even imagine what a better song might sound like.

AZEALIA BANKS- 212

As if this couldn't go any more off, I'm only just realising that basically every other line in the main verse ends with a play on "212"; a la "Imma do one too", "fuck you gone do", "in my two one deuce", "come to 1 2", "you know you were too once", "bout to blew up too".
