Best Collaboration Record of 2008
Reader's Pick:
T.I. & Jay-Z ft. Kanye West & Lil Wayne - Swagger Like Us
“Swagger” was an ongoing theme throughout '08, and nowhere was this more apparent than on T.I.'s fifth Paper Trail single, “Swagga Like Us.” Over a sample of M.I.A.'s “Paper Planes,” Tip and all-star collaborators Hova, Kanye, and Weezy joined forces to set a yet-unsurpassed standard for swag.
Runner Up:
T-Pain ft. Lil’ Wayne - Can’t Believe It
DJ Booth Staff Pick:
DJ Khaled ft. Kanye West & T-Pain – Go Hard

this song is overplayed and sounds like an awkward mixtape. Jay, you're too old for these kids. You invented swagger, don't let them make a fool of you.

Never really got into this one as much as everyone did. "Can't Believe It"'s uniqueness and production gets my vote.

I definitely didn't vote for this joint. It got tired quick. "Go Hard" should have won it.

Forgot what I voted for again! Pretty sure it was "Game's Pain", but I can't remember if this was here. T.I. had a huge year, and I think he's getting stuff in the right direction. And with the biggest industry Hip Hop heads on song, you can't go wrong.

I sorta dont see how this won, i thought this track was a major disappointment considering the major names on this track & Kanye producing it.
I think I voted for 'Put On' By Young Jeezy & Kanye West

I can see why this won - most of you voted for it - but I DID NOT LIKE S.L.U. at all. "Go Hard"... um... well... WENT HARD.
Nuff said.

All three of these are dope and are pretty close. I do agree with the Swagger Like Us. 4 of the top living mc's on one song. You cant get much better than

This a hot joint for a bit, but did tend to get old. I can understand it winning, don't think "Go Hard" was the best collaboration though, Ye only dropped two verses and the track felt a bit uncomplete, but it did "go hard". A bigger collab joint that I thought was on point and should have won, would be Jeezy & Ye with "Put On". That was an anthem, it went hard and represented.

"Swagger like us"-was really the sang of the year. I mean its a hot joint with probably the 4 top rappers in the game now(atleat in my opinion). Swag was never heard of before this song and now every song got the word in it. This was one of the best songs in 2008 no doubt about it.
