This is has to be top 5 on anyones list. The Trap or Die intro. That was the second Young Jeezy song I ever heard after Air Forces. I honestly believe that if that intro wasnt what it was no one would have paid attention to Trap or Die or Young Jeezy. The most important intro ever IMO.

The beat was epic, and Jeezy was spitting that Vintage Jeezy that for some reason you loved even though it wasnt lyrically mind blowing. Cant forget the Ad libs, no one will ever execute ad libs like Jeezy did on this and on TM101. It was to the point where I focused on learning the adlibs more than the words on certain songs.

"You ______ out of water like soda machines, and Jeezy keep the cola like soda machines (YEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH)

You aint never seem them pies (WHAT) I'm talking so much white it'll hurt your eyes (AYYYYY)

I really lived it man (DAMN RIGHT) counted so much paper it'll hurt your hands :x :hat

Ready to die

Timeline intro was on point and led into a banger for the second track which set the whole tone for a classic album. Even the last track/outro made the theme come full circle.
 
Dynasty intro and kingdom come intro as people have said. Blueprint intro, Intro to vol 2 is up there too, especially now knowing the story behind how bleek feel off and hov linked back up with him. Dreams and nightmares intro is tough when the beat drops and it's the best thing on that album.
8o what the story behind Bleek's fall off?????

Not the best debut you've ever heard, but the best intro to any album you've ever heard?

This Big Boi intro is definitely among the dopest of intros I've ever heard.


My dawg pretty much just said, I'm one of the best to have done it, to do it and ever do it, so if you dont know who I am, if you haven't heard of my name before by now, then this aint your kinda party.

How cold is that?

Definitely was a fan of this.

Son. I was a big fan of both intros and songs on both of his albums. Intro and then transitioning into Daddy Fat Sax. the Intro and then transitioning into The Thickets.

:eek :x :smokin
