Can't believe no one has posted Tom Petty - Running Down A Dream yet...

Dynamite Hack - Boyz in The Hood. Easily one of my all time favorite "acoustic rap" songs and song to roll around to on a nice day. If you haven't heard this before... enjoy.

I have many of rock hits that are go-tos, pretty much anything by The Darkness... but this thread is severely lacking in some hip-hop/rap. Many people might poo-poo Tupac or G-unit, but honestly, they had some classic hits, and if you listen to the links I've posted below you'll realize they are definitely more chill and fun songs than anything remotely "hardcore" or overly thuggy.

Unknown Prophets: (Local group from Minnesota) Very relevant song for me this time of year that I listen to every spring.
