Best Collaboration Record of 2009


Reader's Pick


Drake ft. Kanye West, Lil Wayne & Eminem - Forever Artwork

Drake ft. Kanye West, Lil Wayne & Eminem - Forever

A dream-team collaboration that took the game by storm when it surfaced in late August, More Than a Game soundtrack single "Forever" saw Drake, Weezy, Kanye, and, most surprisingly, Eminem joining forces to utterly annihilate a beat by "Best I Ever Had" producer Boi-1da. Though “Forever” was nominally Drizzy's joint, it was Slim Shady's blistering closing verse that truly had Booth readers scrambling for their lower jaws.

Drake ft. Kanye West, Lil Wayne & Eminem - Forever

Sorry to be predictable, but was their really any other choice besides "Forever"? 2009 saw no shortage of dope collabos, but "Forever" is the track that will be talked about for the next decade, the track that not only included heavyweights Kanye and Lil Wayne, but proved that rising star Drake could hold his own alongside some of the game's elite emcees. What's more, it served as an announcement that Eminem was finally back and ready to defend his former best rapper alive crown. Yes sir, we'll remember this one...wait for it...forever.

How can anyone argue with this one? The Best MC's of 2009 get on a track and kill it...What more can you ask for?

Swagga Like Us won last year's collabo award...and Forever is a million times better, plus I believe it has the highest star-rating of any track in Booth history. So, was there really anything else that could come close?

It doesn't get any more obvious than this!

A bit surprised to see "Run This Town" taking the Runners Up spot, as most of the peeps felt disappointed by it. I personally voted for "Maybach Music Pt.2" for that Runners Up spot.

[Resume playing "Forever"]

Not surprising. If you think, there wasn't a terrible verse on this song, they all did pretty solid [(c) DJ Z].

This pick is always going to annoy me, mainly because these multiple rappers on a track songs never live up to expectations. To be fair, this is a pretty good song & I guess its worthy of winning this award.

No doubt DJ Booth is right about this one, I still play this jam a lot admiring the verses by each emcee's corner.
