'Roaches' was the best rap song of last year.

I liked it as well and voted for it the last round but I'm a fan of Stephen Malkmus and liked the song so I finally decided to vote for that one.

Oh, that Malkmus song is very charming, the sort of mildly countrified indie ramble that he does very well, and I've voted for it in every round thus far. That said, it doesn't touch his best work, neither with nor post-Pavement, and feels slight compared to 'Roaches', but I do understand why this match is close, even if the decision was easy for me. Maxo's guilt-ridden, hyper-specific narrative, and the mechanical, symmetrical nature of his flow, are just a cut above, as far as I'm concerned, while the beat's hazy, can't-put-my-finger-on-it nostalgic loop just gets more likeable, and more poignant, every time. It's just a pity it doesn't qualify as a "song".

Maxo breaks the tie for me... it's real and other dude... never been a fan.
Maxo wins by being real.
EDIT:
Which is a bit ironic for a guy that does a lot of unreal things to his body.

Easy vote for Roaches against the worst excuse for a song in the tourney.
the other ""song"" sounds like the boring live entertainment I hear when I'm eating at Bahama Breeze.
