36. Madvillain - Accordion (2004)

- "Got more lyrics than the church got 'Ooh Lawds'"

- "Hey you, don't touch the mic like it's AIDS on it"

- "Get mo' cheese than Doritos, Cheetos or Fritos"

Mix these lines from one of my favorite lyrical rappers of all time (MF Doom) with a seemingly simple beat that never leaves your head from one of the best producers all time (Madlib), and you come up with something that's true and complete genius. Madvillainy as a whole is one of the greatest things I've ever heard, and the recent news that these two guys are working on a follow-up album is one of the most exciting things I've heard this year.
