I like the one where they sample that song from Motown or the disco era and set rhymes to it.
Three tracks that I have always sounded great on a club soundsystem.
Offended by vulgarity? do not click below!
Car Thief - The Beastie Boys showcase tight record production. Did the Boys and DJ Hurricane invent the "gangster rap" sound here?
OPP- Naughty By Nature drop a Jersey rework of a Jackson Five classic for your barbecue soundtrack eternal. Nothing left unsaid in this track. You know you've danced to it!
How Do You Want It? - Tupac Shakur being Tupac, in the best way. Voices are most of R&B act Jodeci, recorded for this track.

I found myself putting a beat to this in my head!
Did that guy say the n-word at 1:23?
I'll go with a few artists I like
Mos Def (anything before The New Danger)
Jeru the Damaja
KRS One
Gangstarr (and almost anything produced by DJ Premier)
Digable Planets
as far as "new" artists are concerned, I don't hate Sean Price, but it's definitely hit or miss.
Here's an EP I produced a bunch of years back:

And here are a bunch of folks I've worked with

Pretty much anything with Nate Dogg, love his hooks.
Hah, nic pic! Jazzamatazz is great to check out if you "don't like rap". Guru was the man on several levels, big loss...
The darker side..."Mind Playing Tricks On Me" - Geto Boys:
The lighter side..."Just Buggin'" - Whistle:

Pretty much anything by MF Doom is guaranteed to contain several rhymes that will have you rewinding to make sure he said what you heard, and then scratching your head like "what the fluck is this dude talking about and why do i love it even though half of it makes no sense at all?!?!" and he can freestyle like that too.
Speaking of freestyle, here's a hip-hop game show that me and my "crew" invented in the early 2000s.
