It seems that so often the first song of an album goes overlooked. either they are too boring to listen to every time you put the cd in or they're just not as interesting as the rest of the album, but every once in a while there'll be an intro that makes you say "DAAAAMMMNNN!!!" and gets you hype to listen to the rest of the album. Which one(s) do this for you?

My choices are:

Clipse-Lord Willin' Intro
Ludacris-Southern Fried Intro(Chicken & Beer)
Nas-Stillmatic Intro

What about ya'll?

Gotta be first track on low end theory.
When that bass line kicks in and tip starts rhyming... Unbeatable

More a whole song than an intro but still the best start to any album.

Big up to Blak Flame for that MC Eiht pick. I used to listen to that to get hyped up for basketball games.

But I am gonna have to go with Philsiarri with that Gangstarr Hard To Earn.

Honorable Mention would have to be Black Sheep - I Thought I was Hard intro...
