Music Banter - View Single Post - Hip Hop songs w/ Hard Rock or Heavy Metal hook/samples?

I'm looking for suggestions of any hip hop songs that have an underlying hard rock or heavy metal beat. The best two examples I know of are Jay-Z's 99 Problems and Obie Trice's Wanna Know (from HBO's Entourage). Other examples would be Beastie Boys tunes like Sabatoge or No Sleep Til Brooklyn or the Jay-Z/Linkin Park mash-ups like Numb/Encore or Jigga What/Faint. What I'm NOT looking for are speed metal songs with rap-style (really just yelled) lyrics. People have suggested Rage Against the Machine, Anthrax, Korn, etc, but I've haven't found anything I would really call a hip hop song.

Thanks,
lodidodi
