100 Greatest Hip-Hop songs of all time

This is a list that I came up with last year after I saw VH1's list of their 100 greatest hip hop songs and I have updated it slightly since the time that I first wrote it.  For my criteria, I tried to use songs that captured the message of what hip-hop is all about as well as the cultural impact that the songs had.  Some songs such as Parents Just Don't Understand and Bust A Move are included because they furthered the popularity of hip-hop even though they are obviously jokey types of songs.  Of course I have a personal bias towards East Coast rap of the mid-90s such as Nas, Biggie and the Wu-Tang Clan, but I tried not to pick too many songs from one artist.  I also will post the list without commentary except to say that my choice for #1, The Message by Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five to me epitomizes what hip-hop is all about and even though it was released in 1982, it is still completely relevant today.  While the Sugar Hill Gang put hip-hop on the map, The Message gave us an illustrative description of what life was like coming up on the streets of urban New York, and that is what hip-hop is all about.  Please post some comments below.  I would love to hear other people's opinions and what songs people think I left out or am crazy for including.  Without further ado, here is the list:
