Well, it's somewhat disingenuous for me to refer to any rap song as my "favorite" because I'm not really a fan of the genre, but fwiw a few tunes that I find more listenable/entertaining than most would be "Humpty Dance" by Digital Underground, "Pop Goes The Weasel" by 3rd Bass, and "Fight The Power" by Public Enemy.

Also that "It's Getting Hot In Here (So Take Off All Your Clothes)" by, who was that, R.Kelly? Nelly? Smelly? Yeah, that's got a nice groove, rapper has decent flow, and boy-ee does it turn a room full of college-age chicks into a misdemeanor-waiting-to-happen whenever it comes on the jukebox.

My favorite right now is "Kick Kick Push" by Lupe Fiasco. That whole record ("Food and Liquor") is mellow and amazing.
