#1 - Chris Brown ft. Lil Wayne & Busta Rhymes - Look at Me Now
Happy New Year and Happy Disappointing Collaboration! Okay, so maybe I’m being extra hard on Chris Brown’s self released Look at Me Now, featuring the kings of guest feature slaughter, Lil Wayne and Busta Rhymes. From...Read More
#2 - Lupe Fiasco ft. Skylar Grey - Words I Never Said
With the March 8 release date for his oft-delayed album Lasers finally drawing closer, Lupe Fiasco seems to be intent on building anticipation and stoking controversy. His new single, Words I Never Said, seeks to up the ante...Read More
#3 - Wiz Khalifa - Roll Up
Sure a rapper has a loyal fanbase, but can they reach people across the musical spectrum? It’s called crossover appeal, and after Black & Yellow pretty much set the world on fire, Wiz Khalifa didn’t necessarily need to...Read More
#4 - Wiz Khalifa - Black and Yellow
I despise people who leak music. Sometimes a record is just meant to be heard and received in the way its creator intended. Therefore, when Pittsburgh star and DJBooth Freestyle Alum Wiz Khalifa’s first single (off of his...Read More
#5 - Jay Sean ft. Lil Wayne - Hit the Lights
If I told you that Cash Money crooner Jay Sean was in the market for another hit on the level of his breakthrough smash Down you’d probably take a look at the charts and recommend some kind of dance/pop/r&b jam jam. Great...Read More
#6 - Nicki Minaj ft. Drake - Moment 4 Life
2010 has definitely been good to Nicki Minaj. Love it it or hate it, she's been a ubiquitous presence that has forced the world to take notice, racking up countless song features, magazine spreads, music videos and a Grammy...Read More
#7 - Big Sean ft. Chris Brown - My Last
Big Sean has been signed for more a minute now, and although has put out a consistent string of mixtape hits, he has lacked the necessary radio hit that artists need to become a household name. Thanks to R&B star Chris Brown...Read More
#8 - Nicki Minaj ft. Lil Wayne - Roman’s Revenge 2.0
Two months after the release of the most successful female emcee album in over a decade, Pink Friday still has the game in a frenzy. Whether it was the Euro-pop songs that had you dancing, or the out-of-nowhere lyrical...Read More
#9 - Bruno Mars - Grenade
With a soulful voice and even more harmonious tunes, one man has captured the hearts of girls everywhere. Hint: He probably wrote one of your favorite songs and he isn’t Canadian. Since that rules out Drake, you know it’s...Read More
#10 - Tyga ft. Snoop Dogg, Game & Pharrell Williams - Really Raw
Is it possible to make the pop audience swoon with your lead single, then come back with a follow-up that'll knock harder-core heads' socks off? Normally, I'd argue against trying to be all things to all people, but Tyga just...Read More
#11 - 50 Cent - Old 2003 Ferrari (Freestyle)
50 Cent has been widely criticized for the quality of music he has released for the past few years, so what better way to fix it than by going back to the music that people first loved? When he arrived with the back story of...Read More
#12 - T.I. ft. Christina Aguilera - Castle Walls
Even though T.I. has (sadly) spent more time behind bars than he has promoting his new album, No Mercy has managed to sell more than 500,000 physical copies. Thus, instead of waiting until the emcee is released from prison...Read More
#13 - Wiz Khalifa ft. Too Short - On My Level
What more can I say? It's frickin' Wiz Khalifa and Too Short. On a Jim Jonsin beat. It's almost as predictable as the sun shining. But I wouldn't be a writer if I stopped there, so let’s dig into the details. Wiz Khalifa is...Read More
#14 - New Boyz ft. Dev - Back Seat
As reader responses to their various features attest, there were many who initially thought Skinny Jeans and a Mic duo New Boyz weren't built to last. Too Cool to Care what the doubters think, however, Cali natives Legacy and...Read More
#15 - Black Eyed Peas - Just Can't Get Enough
At this point the Black Eyed Peas aren’t a music group, they’re a finely tuned hit-making and marketing machine. There’s a reason they’ve been invited to perform at halftime of this year’s Super Bowl. It’s almost...Read More
#16 - Waka Flocka Flame ft. Roscoe Dash & Wale - No Hands
I know this may be a little hard to believe, but none other than Waka Flocka Flame, the king of o doin things, has never has a solo feature on the Booth. The closest he’s come, somewhat surprisingly, is a guest verse on...Read More
#17 - Travis Barker ft. Lil Wayne, The Game, Rick Ross & Swizz Beats - Can a Drummer Get Some?
Being great at your particular craft and appreciative of others is how beneficial collaborations come about. Since former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker is respected across genres, he can call up anyone from The Cool Kids to...Read More
#18 - Rihanna ft. J. Cole - S&M (Remix)
Remember when Rihanna was an innocent pop songstress, content to invite a dude to join her under her Umbrella? My, how times have changed. On S&M, single numero quatre off her latest studio album, the Bajan hitmaker pushes...Read More
#19 - Kanye West & Jay-Z - H.A.M.
When an actor gets really into a performance, he or she is often said to be “hamming it up.” Although the title of the first official release off Kanye West & Jay-Z's forthcoming collaborative set is actually a reference...Read More
