Just to be clear, this doesn't have to be what you think the best diss track is. I want your favorite.

This CAN be because you think it is the best, but also I want those tracks that you think were the meanest. Or had the sickest beat. Or had the best word play. Whatever makes you love a diss track.

I have 2 because they have very different reasons.

First is Gucci Mane - Truth. This was a diss aimed at Jeezy. The references to the killing of Pookie Loc during the failed robbery at Gucci's apartment is one of the coldest thing's I've heard in my life.

Second is Esoteric - Mercy Killing. This isn't the best diss track in the world, but it holds a special place in my heart. When I first started getting in to rap, I got really in to east coast underground hip hop for some reason. This is also an extremely ambitious track, going after the entire Eastern Conference label, including underground legends such as Aesop Rock and EL-P.
