The musical growth of this band cannot even be charted. They are treading water in a sea of retarded sexuality and bad poetry.

You might have missed it, but VH1 just ran their 100 Greatest Hip Hop Songs of all time list. I'm a sucker for lists, so I had to share and weigh in.

• First, I think #2 should have been #1, since it started the phenomenon.
• There's a lot of rubbish rated higher than "Regulate" at 98.
• I can understand only one song per artist, but then I'm thinking Paul Revere for the Beastie Boys instead, or even Brass Monkey.
• No way that Doug E. Fresh's "The Show" doesn't break the top 50.
• No way Hammer's "Can't Touch This" doesn't make the top 25.
  
• Though it's become somewhat of a punchline, Vanilla Ice's "Ice, Ice, Baby" was the bomb back in the day and should have at least made the top 100.
• Lastly, is VH1 really all that qualified to come up with such a list?
