I'm looking for some rap songs that have a dark beat to them... if that makes sense?

Examples:
Tupac ft. Notorious BIG - Running
Jay z - Blueprint 2
Method Man - Bring the pain

also what are some of Method mans best works? I love this guys lyrics and sounds!

a couple Em tunes... Till I collapse, Marshall Mathers, Soldier
Bone Thugs & Harmony ft. Tupac - Thug Luv
Nas - Hate me Now

give Souls of Mischief, Dilated Peoples a try

Noah 23 dark beats plus he's amazing got amazing flow
Non Prophets (Sage Francis+Joe Beats) have some dark beats too

Method Man is amazing. I'll list my favorite songs by him.

Even If
Do What Ya Feel (Redman's in this one but Meth is half the song and it is some of his best work)
Da Rockwilder (If you've never heard it and you like method man, your guarenteed to like it)
How High (Not part 2)
Chrome Wheels (Wu-tang song but he's got part in it)

If you don't know much about him he's a very big asset to the group Wu-Tang. Check out the album "Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)". Everything on that c.d. is good and they all have that Bring the pain feel to it.

As far as the dark beats part goes I'm not really sure what you mean by this, but again check out Wu-tang.

Neophyte,
don't you think the non-prophets is terriffic?

yea the non-prophets album is sick adding joe beats has just made sage francis' rhyming sound incredible he's beats in previous albums always seemed to me as if they were lacking that extra kick

i like it much better than personal journals. and i actually understand from time to time what this guy wants to say...

im not sure . im gonna try and list some darker songs . some are dark horror movie style , then some are just very sad dark sounding tunes.. i tried
