Have you ever listened to a rap song and found yourself wishing that it was about 40 minutes longer and had a thousand guest verses? If you have, then you're in luck, because Noisey has released its massive, Hudson Mohawke-produced "The Rap Monument," which features 36 rappers doing what they do best (rapping) for 42 minutes, more than twice as long as Eminem's 16-minute "Detroit vs. Everybody" remix. If you'd like some context, it's about two minutes longer than the entirety of Illmatic.
Among the rappers featured on "The Rap Monument" include Killer Mike, Pusha T, Raekwon, Danny Brown, Young Thug, and many, many more. It's like a much cooler version of those lame BBC songs where they get a bunch of musicians to sing five words to a classic song. You can check out a full list of the featured rappers below, after the video.

"What would happen if you got a bunch of rappers together to make one long, dope-ass song?" Noisey asked when they announce the project earlier this month. "Not a freestyle, not a cypher, not one rapper rapping so long that you'd get bored. It would be sick, right?"
