That is by no means meant as a slight to verses or artists that are omitted, this list just serves to celebrate a number of great emcees who laid down some of their best or most famous bars on other people’s songs. Because taste is entirely subjective and it is really not possible to quantify what constitutes a great verse (flow? delivery? wordplay? complex rhyme schemes? emotion? lyrical substance?), lots of epic and memorable verses will not be included here. With thousands of guest verses to choose from, of course it is nearly impossible to narrow it down to just twenty-five. For this list, we have selected twenty-five of the very best guest verses in the history of Hip Hop. No other form of music, with the possible exception of Jazz, knows as many collaborations as Hip Hop does, and a lot of careers have been kick-started by a single well-timed guest spot. 25 Best Guest Verses In Hip Hop History: Hip Hop artists have always been unafraid of working together.
