#1 - Yo Gotti ft. Stuey Rock - Single
Still lacking a release date for his J Records debut, Yo Goitti returns to our pages with a new joint whose electrifying concept must be heard to be believed: it's a Single... about being single! Backed by Lil Lody's...Read More
#2 - David Banner - Swag
While some (cough, Lil B, cough) may prefer to believe that it will last forever, history tells us that the currently red hot “Swag” will soon join its brothers “bling” and “fo sho” in the Words Everyone Used To...Read More
#3 - Big K.R.I.T. ft. Yelawolf - Happy Birthday Hip Hop
They say good things come to those who wait, and while I don’t know who “they” are, and “they” are usually wrong, when it comes to Big K.R.I.T. time might just be on his side. We haven’t heard much from Krizza...Read More
#4 - J. Cole ft. Omen & Voli - Pity
For being in a position that countless others can merely dream of, heavyweight recording artists are surprisingly apt to feel sorry for themselves, using their position of power as a soapbox from which to vent about their...Read More
#5 - 50 Cent - I'm On It
Outlaw, the lead single off 50 Cent's yet-untitled fifth album, was heralded by an overwhelming majority of Booth readers as a fresh return to form for the NYC underground mainstay. But, sadly, critical acclaim ain't always...Read More
#6 - Asher Roth ft. D.A. Wallach - Another One Down
It seems like just yesterday Asher Roth was the guy who really, really loved college. Since then he’s embarked on an extended campaign to be taken more seriously as an emcee, but not too seriously. Asher still knows how to...Read More
#7 - Ace Hood ft. T-Pain - King of the Streets
Ace Hood may have just scored a radio hit with the Breezy-assisted Body 2 Body, but the Floridian hustler is still King of the Streets. Just in case anyone forget, the We the Best signee teams up with T-Pain to reaffirm his...Read More
#8 - Wale ft. J. Cole - Bad Girls Club
Two years ago (2009 for those with math troubles) we saw one of the hottest summers when it comes to hip-hop mixtapes. Two of the biggest (and my personal favorites) mixtapes that summer were J. Cole’s The Warm Up and...Read More
#9 - Gilbere Forte' ft. Tyga & Raak - Burn Me Down
Gilbere Forte's brought us music for just about every mood over the course of his eclectic tenure in the Booth, but I can't recall ever hearing him quite as fired up as he gets on his latest effort—single numero uno off his...Read More
#10 - Bad Meets Evil ft. Bruno Mars - Lighters
No, you're not hallucinating; Bad Meets Evil, the lyrically-bruising duo made up of Motown heavyweights Royce Da 5'9" and Eminem, hooks up with R&B-pop heartthrob Bruno Mars on new EP single Lighters. And, though the...Read More
#11 - Wiz Khalifa ft. Curren$y & Big Sean - O.T.T.R
You know how, in D.A.R.E. class, they told you that weed would slow down your mental facilities and eventually turn you into a drooling invalid? Well, I'm not gonna say those boys in blue were lying to you, but Wiz Khalifa's...Read More
#12 - Kendrick Lamar ft. Colin Munroe - No Make-Up (Her Vice)
As homo sapien of the male persuasion, I can't even begin to imagine expending the time and energy women routinely put forth in order to live up to societal standards of perfection. Appreciative of the effort his girl puts...Read More
#13 - Game - Infrared
After a seemingly endless series of album delays and a few downright bizarre musical missteps (see P*ssy Fight... or better yet, don't.), could Game be back to his old, dope self again—just in time for the release of his...Read More
#14 - Ace Hood ft. Beanie Sigel, Busta Rhymes, Pusha T & Styles P - Go N' Get It (Remix)
Hey look, it’s a mega-remix of a hustler’s anthem that doesn’t involve DJ Khaled. When Ace Hood dropped street single Go N’ Get It back in May readers pointed out its similarity to Hustle Hard – determined to laugh...Read More
#15 - Lil Wayne - How to Love
Prepare for the internet to explode in 5, 4, 3….. When Lil Wayne emerged from Rikers we didn’t know how the incarceration would affect his music, but after first single, Six Foot Seven Foot, it seemed like the answer was...Read More
#16 - Drake - Dreams Money Can Buy
If DJBooth.net had printing presses, somebody would be running down the hall right now screaming to stop them. What's the occasion? Only a new, apropos-of-nothing-in-particular release from one of the heaviest heavyweights in...Read More
#17 - Wiz Khalifa ft. Chevy Woods - Taylor Gang
If you picked up your copy of Wiz Khalifa's major-label debut on iTunes, then you've already heard bonus cut Taylor Gang. If not, lace up your Chucks and get ready, because here's your chance. Resurrected as a digital...Read More
#18 - DJ Khaled ft. Drake, Rick Ross & Lil Wayne - I'm on One
We the Best head honcho DJ Khaled is following up the boisterous, street-certified Welcome to My Hood (and its successful remix) with something a little more club-focused. I'm on One finds Young Money megastar Drake joining...Read More
#19 - Jared Evan - Ice Cream (unCOVERED)
Jared Evan is many things – a Zone 4/Interscope signee, a DJBooth Freestyle alum, one hell of a good interview subject – but first and foremost he’s consistent. Over the last year it’s hard to remember a month...Read More
