Brooklyn's Finest (song)

"Brooklyn's Finest" is a song by American rapper Jay-Z featuring fellow Brooklyn rapper The Notorious B.I.G., released as the third track on Jay-Z's 1996 debut album Reasonable Doubt. Produced by DJ Clark Kent, the song features a competitive back-and-forth lyrical exchange between the two rappers, with each MC trading bars in a format that resembles battle rap. The track samples the Ohio Players' "Ecstasy" and was recorded at Daddy's House Recording Studio in New York.
