Figure emblématique de la scène rap montréalaise et même québécoise, Jay Seven est un rappeur, Mc et animateur aux multiples activités. On peut le retrouver aux manettes de l’émission Pod’Casque avec Le Onz, Le temps d’un jujube avec Dj Crowd, sa propre émission, On Da spot puis dans quelques adresses montréalaises, comme le Blvd 44 et autres. On lui a demandé de nous donner son TOP 10 afin d’en connaître plus sur le fan de rap et comprendre avec quels artistes Jay à grandit.

1 – C murder – Would You Hesitate

One of my Favourite no limit artists, a song i still play here and there and always gives me the same feeling. C-murder was one of the realest off the tank. Free C.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zxM6Uwlbgc

2 – NWA – Gangsta Gangsta

When i heard this as a kid…i was like daaaamn, it was so raw, never had heard anything like it, plus cube was young and hungry, and of course Eazy E was always a personal favourite and i loved the beat switch for his verse, so i played this song over and over….https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCAkHFavEdw

3 – Ugk – Diamonds & Wood

The baseline, the syrupy production and pimp and Bun’s vocals make this a ugk classic . These guys helped take the houston sound nationwide. The definition of Country Rap tunes.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uijHb5U1pD8

4 – Cormega – Verbal Graffiti

Always been one of my favourite rappers from queensbridge, the way he paints pictures with his lyrics is unmatched to me, big respect to Mega!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eypWGevTjTY

5 – Z-Ro- Mo City Don Freestyle

This is one of my favourite artists, and this song is another classic in the texas area, from drake to beyonce, they all give zro his respect and u can catch people singing this freestyle word for word at any zro concert.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9iTDwqmvumI

2 of the greatest to come out of queensbridge, great song, great concept, talking about their conscience, this joint is a whole vibe.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_JnNrMwxtI

7 – Snoop Doggy Dogg Feat Tray Deee- 21 Jumpstreet

Cant do a list without a classic g-funk pick, Snoop in his prime with one of my favourites, Tray Deee of the eastsidaz….dope intro, death row flavorz.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7sU-My885g

8 – Outkast – SpottieOttieDopaliscious

9 – Bone Thugs-n-Harmony – No Surrender

Discovered Bone on “creepin’ on ah come up” EP….i was so down cuz they were with ruthless, and theyre lyrical style was and still is fire!!! One of my first favourite Bone joints.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpVgwNCwNec

10 – Nate Dogg – Music and me

I couldve picked 10 Nate dogg songs, but this one is always dope, kick back, twist up, pour up, and just vibe to the g-funk smoothness….https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrXDolxczmwJAY SEVEN TOP 10 ON SPOTIFY – + 2 autres chansons sur la playlisthttps://open.spotify.com/playlist/5q7sUAactXu9UacSuodLJu?si=f189f85ef1654073
