few more suggestions to make up for the lack of awesome on the thread...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4HjsZqOaQ0 Tupac - Hit 'em up (uncensored so possibly NSFW) - it's really hard to she why he got gunned down... hehe

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7JuArhpTB8 Tupac - until the end of time.

and of course his best mate:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkBpRBrSVos - Notorious BIG - Hypnotise

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4UqMyldS7Q - Ice Cube - it was a good day.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u31FO_4d9TY - NWA - Express yourself

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZqZschnrxM - NWA - Straight Outta Compton

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kG_qcud1ShM - Dr Dre - Still Dre (again not his best, but good, and certainly one of the best artists of his genre.)

and perhaps not the best song, but imo the best rapper....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5W80Ae5hEOA - Jay Z - 99 Problems

Yes, but it's got to be the full-length version though - 15 minutes of your life well spent!

Just skim-read the thread, and was going to suggest Sugarhill Gang and end the thread, but was obviously beaten to it!

Would also second White Lines

Coming up to date a bit though, I would suggest this could be a contender?
