Dj Baer's TOP HIP HOP SINGLES

“*Tear”

“I really can't wait for this project. I love concept albums and this promises to be incredibly deep. I'm really excited to see how this song will tie into the story. While it has that classic roots soulish vibe there is something new and appealing about it. And of course the rookie of the year K.R.I.T. just makes it all the more better.”

“Another banger off of "Take Care", which I'm really excited about. I'm happy that a big name rapper finally made a song like this (recently anyways) because it is kind of a women's anthem in a sense. As is with most Drake songs, the production and hook are excellent. Even his flow is impressive and not the normal punchline flow. Overall great song from what's going to be an impressive album.”

“Classic ish right here...”

“I've been following XV since the booth introduced him to me about two years back and every mixtape that he has dropped since then has made me like him even more. This has an early to mid 2000's flow and I love it. Vizzy's flow as always is on point with and Pusha has been on point lately. I really like the production by Seven. Hopefully this'll make it on the album, if and when it decides to get a release date.”

“Ah yes, good to hear Wayne back on his old rhyming ish.”

“Whew! Sound like some classic Rae!”

“My thoughts on this track in comparison to the rest of the album. Not the best track and not the worst track. Somewhere right in the middle is where this belongs. I think the chorus is a little annoying, and both spit some pretty decent verses. The production is the best part, which is why I'm gave it a 3.5/5”

“Holy Shiznaps! This may be the best verse he has ever spit! Expectations for this Mixtape just went way up!”

“Yes, you definitely tell this is produced by Kanye, but obviously that isn't a bad thing. I've been looking forward for this album for quite a while, and I'm now realizing that it's going to be one of the last good hip-hop albums of the year. Interesting choice for an intro track.”

“Honestly, it's not that bad. I really like the hook. It's kinda like a mix between "Love The Way You Lie" and an 80's song. This obviously isn't making Detox, and I would be shocked if it didn't make the "Recovery" re-release.”

“This track is still growing on me, and while it doesn't have the flow of his older tracks I have to remember that music moves on, and so do some other people on this site. This is extremely catchy. As for the rest of the album? It's not going to be a classic I can tell you that much. Is it going to be good? Of course it is.”

“You can tell that this wan't finished, and I'm sure there is a little more Akon than MJ fans would like. But that shouldn't deter you from this song. It's still incredible, and I can honestly see this rising up the charts. I hope it does. It actually gets me excited for "Michael".”

“Ah brings me back to 2004 (actually 2008 is when I heard "The College Dropout", but that's besides the point) when Kanye was just starting out with these guys. If GLC was on this, it would have been the perfect throwback. I have heard better boards from Q. Like last weeks, I believe this ones emphasis was more on a lyrical track. Otherwise, a great track!!”
