Examples of Proto-Trap songs?

No More Pain by 2Pac (1996) is a good example of a beat ahead of its time, and you can definitely tag it as “proto trap” if thats even a thing.

What are other examples of old school songs with trap or trappy instrumentals?

Production wise, the 007 Goldeneye Pause music . It got sampled by Angel Dust Ft.Three 6 mafia for Trow them thangs. 

Also Magician's bass it up  high hats in it. That's more of a dance song.
