"Fight the Power" earned the list's top slot, according to The Associated Press. VH1 will reveal the entire ranking in a series of programs starting Monday.

It's as energetic as any rap recording, and is universally recognized as the cornerstone of the genre's late '80s-early '90s Afrocentric movement.
