20 Amazing Songs That Clock In At Under 60 Seconds

18. Madvillain - "Supervillain Theme"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qx2zU1c2LFM Try to find a song in modern hip-hop that sounds anything like the off-kilter experimentation of MF Doom and Madlib on their only full-length, non-remix album. Madvillainy is a singular adventure, a dark carnival of meticulous beats and sophisticated rhymes that grips you by the throat while it spits hot fire into your ear. There wasn't a bad moment on the album, and the duo even slipped in a few brief instrumental tracks that actually added to the album, rather than stop the listener in their tracks or pad the thing out. "Supervillain Theme" is chamber music explored through the lens of someone with a serious bone to pick and a penchant for creeping everyone out in the process.
