#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 - 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
#3 - 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
#4 - 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
#5 - 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
#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 - 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
#8 - 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
#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 - 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
#11 - The Script ft. B.o.B. - Walk Away
Earlier this month, B.o.B. swept the 2010 Best of the Booth Awards' Best Crossover Record category with Airplanes, a smash-hit whose appeal transcended national and genre boundaries. Now, the ATL hitmaker's harnessed his...Read More
#12 - Sean Kingston ft. B.o.B - Hope is a River
Though many big-name artists are quick to voice their disenchantment with the music game, no amount of industry B.S. can erase that triumphant moment when one realizes that one's long-fought-for dreams are finally going to...Read More
#13 - 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
#14 - 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
#15 - 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
#16 - Lloyd Banks ft. Jeremih - I Don't Deserve You
Ah, l'amour... If you need proof that budding romance can turn even the biggest braggart into a bundle of nerves, look no further than Lloyd Banks' latest single, which finds the self-proclaimed player who brought us Beamer...Read More
#17 - Jamie Foxx ft. Drake - Fall for Your Type
Jamie Foxx was riding high after the extraordinary success of his previous album Intuition, but the build-up to his next full-length has repeatedly hit a roadblock that can’t simply be blamed on the alcohol; the lack of a...Read More
#18 - Birdman ft. Lil Wayne - Fire Flame (Remix)
I've never been to prison (sh*t, there goes my street cred), but if I had just spent eight months behind bars, I know the first item on my agenda would be hanging out with the fam. Seems like Lil Wayne had the same idea –...Read More
#19 - Big K.R.I.T. ft. Ragen Fykes (of Grillade) - Neva Go Back
Underground fave Big K.R.I.T. has proven that he can murder a mixtape and body a DJBooth freestyle with ease. It seems that the big time still eludes him though, like if the perfect track that balanced Grade A hip-hop, a...Read More
