What are some good rap songs that I might like?

Question

I enjoy listening to something meaningful, not any Lil Wayne stuff about hoes, cars, and money, I want something deep like One Mic by Nas, and The Message by Melle Mel. Old school, new school, either genre.

AND NO YOUNG MONEY MUSIC, LIL WAYNE, FLO RIDA, FAKE HIP HOP,

I want REAL RAP MUSIC.

anyways, lol, what songs do you like? Thanks!
