Possibly two of Brooklyn's most famous emcees, Jay-Z and the Notorious B.I.G., released this timeless classic back in 1996.

Though hailing from the same hood in Bedford-Stuyvesant, the two didn't know each other too well before getting into rap. On the Clark Kent-produced 'Brooklyn's Finest,' they get into the groove, passing the beat back and forth between them, all the while shouting out the different neighborhoods of the borough and flexing a bit of lyrical muscle.

Jay raps, "Jay-Z and Big Smalls n---- / S--- your drawers / Brooklyn represent y'all / Hit your fours / You crazy? / Think your lil' bit of rhymes could play me? / I'm from Marcy, I'm varsity chump / You're JV."
