Um... I mean, I dno it depends in what respect.
Just in pure musical terms I think it'd have to be "Bully". The writing is beautiful, like "The Way I Am".
But "The Sauce", "Nail in the Coffin" and "The Warning" are all more vicious and effective as emotional disses. Regardless of the opponents, people act as if they can't be amazing diss tracks just because the opponent is a shit one. Tyson fought a lot of bums too but doesn't make his skills any less real.
It just so happens not that many good rappers have wanted it with Em because they either respect him or are friends with him lmao. It's only been a few morons stupid enough to think they can challenge him with their primitive technique that have but that's hardly Em's fault. Apart from Mariah before anyone says.
"Canibitch" was a great diss track and IMO he easily won the battle. People think just because he's not screaming his lungs out and threatning Bis' life it's not a good diss. The fact that he treated it like a joke made Canibus look a bigger joke himself.
"At least one punch line! Come on! /Till the meter reads Nine! Nine! Nine-ty nine percent of my fans are blond! / 'Bis, come on, answer me, man, respond! /Tell me 'bout the sun, rain, moon and stars!
/ Intergalactical metaphors from Mars! / Raw to the floor, raw like "Reservoir Dogs"! / Bite another line from Redman's song!"
He totally undermined Canibus' entire style with that alone. He humliated him throughout. From top to bottom and all with a theme of irony and paradoy as if to say he's not even worth breaking a sweat over. Makes Canibus' technical wannabe approach seem totally wasteful and lame.
"I Remember" was also a great diss.
