"On To the Next One" - Alright lyrically but awesome because the beat is incredible.

of these i went with "Hard Knock" for the wtf nature of it when it came out and how it's aged like fine wine. Izzo has always been my least favorite (popular) Jay Z single.

A few favorites not mentioned:

1-900-Hustler
Do It Again
Hola Hovito
Brooklyn's Finest
The Bounce
Encore
PSA

it seems by the above posts that an "other" option would be used pretty heavily.

Izzo or Big Pimpin. The Big Pimpin remix with the second Jay verse after Pimp C's is tight to death.
