’12 Best Guest Verses: #2 Big Sean “Burn”

Do you remember that producer Jahlil Beats gave this beat to Jadakiss first (“Paper Tags”)? Probably not. Because Meek Mill and Big Sean lyrically exploded all over the damn thing and made it theirs. This is a clash of two young titans who thankfully are on the same side. Like an old school rap group, the dynamic duo trade rhymes building off each other’s wordplay. Rap fans can argue all day about which MC got the better of the exchanges but, one fact is clear, the guest from Detroit more than holds his own with the fiery Philly spitter. We love Sean’s line about his cousin (“Can’t believe he graduated/Threw him 20,000 dollars told his ass congratulations/Cause me… I wasn’t made for that shit”). Niggas used to talk about how Sean wasn’t that nice on the mic device but “Burn” proved they were just blowing smoke. Boom!

  2. Drew Who says:

    you people still aint sick of hearing how much money these rappers have?? oh god

  3. Dashing says:

    I thought about this verse, but the fact that him and Meek were pretty much equal on this made it seem like it wasn’t a standout feature. It was a great blend for sure, but there’s a lot of featured verses that were more impressive cause you have to give half the credit to Meek. It’s like giving Styles a best guest verse award for his week with Jada.

    Better than this:

    GFK on “New God Flow”
    Andre 3000 on “Sixteen”
    2 Chainz on “Mercy”
    Kendrick Lamar on “Power Circle” or “They Ready” or “Black Lip Bastard”

  4. Dashing says:

    *work with Jada
