#1 - 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
#2 - Curren$y - She Don’t Want A Man
For a stoner Currens$y sure does work a lot. Coming close on the heels of his Covert Coup mixtape, which I have to say opened my eyes to the former Young Money emcee’s skills, the leader of the Jets releases new single She...Read More
#3 - Diggy Simmons - Copy, Paste
Much-buzzed-about rap up-and-comer (and carrier of the great Rev Run's genes) Diggy Simmons marks his official entrance into the game with the inaugural single off his forthcoming LP. Copy, Paste is a chilly banger which...Read More
#4 - Lupe Fiasco ft. Trey Songz - Out of My Head
Now that the, well, fiasco that was the release of Lupe's third full-length has largely died down, it's possible to appreciate Lasers for what it is: a quality, if uncharacteristically pop-oriented addition to the Chitown...Read More
#5 - Mann ft. Iyaz & Snoop Dogg - The Mack
If you cherish fond memories of a certain '97 breakout single by Mark Morrison well, you're in for a treat. Today, The Mack re-returns, Dr. Who style, in a new incarnation. Los Angeles emcee Mann dons the R&B vet's oversized...Read More
#6 - Big Sean - I Don't Think They Want It
With his debut studio album, at long last, headed for store shelves, G.O.O.D Music mainstay Big Sean is suddenly having second thoughts. Reasoning, “I Don't Think They Want It,” the Motown repper has decided to push the...Read More
#7 - Royce Da 5?9" - Second Place
Though his '09's Street Hop LP earned considerable critical acclaim, Royce Da 5'9's recent buzz has centered around his collaborative work—first with street supergroup Slaughterhouse, and most recently with Eminem as Bad...Read More
#8 - DJ Drama ft. Fabolous, Roscoe Dash & Wiz Khalifa - Oh My
Industry tastemaker and mixtape icon DJ Drama is prepping for the release of his third full-fledged Gangsta Grillz album. For a taste of the bombastic musical goodness that's in store, check out Oh My, a high-impact club cut...Read More
#9 - Big Sean - So Much More
No question, Big Sean is Finally Famous. After being on my (and Hip Hop’s) radar for over two years now (since the release of 2009’s UKNOWBIGSEAN) to being a couple weeks away from his Def Jam/G.O.O.D. Music debut, the...Read More
#10 - Young Jeezy ft. Lil Wayne - Ballin’
Having received disappointing reviews for his last selection, The Lick, and frankly a few selections before that too, trap star and CTE CEO Young Jeezy pulls out the big guns for the latest street single off his long-awaited...Read More
#11 - Ja Rule - Black Vodka
Tomorrow, June 7, street veteran Ja Rule is scheduled to report to prison to begin a two-year sentence on drug and gun charges—and the artist's highly-anticipated comeback LP, which originally seemed like it was going to be...Read More
#12 - Chiddy Bang - Too Much Soul
Could it be—could Chiddy Bang simply have Too Much Soul for today's music game? I'm leaning towards “no,” if only for the fact that they don't make soul music in any sense of the term I'm familiar with. Nonetheless, the...Read More
#13 - Big Sean - What Goes Around
Big Sean's road to greatness was a rocky one, the Detroit native didn't doubt himself for a moment; well aware that "What Goes Around Comes Around," the G.O.O.D. Music repper simply did his best, confident that karma would...Read More
#14 - Asher Roth ft. Akon - Last Man Standing
Once derided as a lightweight (though hailed by some as a breath of fresh air), Asher Roth has spent his post-Bread Aisle career making the necessary preparations for his reemergence as a serious spitter. While lead single...Read More
#15 - Fabolous ft. Ne-Yo & Ryan Leslie - Look At Her (Killin’ Em pt.2)
Collaborations are great aren’t they? Think about it, would Taco Bell’s Meal Deals be as epic without the Doritos? I think not. Hence the reason I love hearing various artists come together. From All City Chess Club to...Read More
#16 - Chiddy Bang ft. The Knocks - When You’ve Got Music
Even after breaking the Guinness World Record for Longest Freestyle with an epic, 9-hour-plus rhyme session – can I get a round of applause, by the way? – Philly flame-spitter Chiddy Bang's lyrical well is far from dry....Read More
#17 - Big Sean - I Do It
It's hard to tell Big Sean's story without heavy usage of the word “finally.” It was two years after their first meeting in '05 before Kanye finally signed the Motown native, three more before he got the gears turning for...Read More
#18 - Rick Ross ft. Lil Wayne - 9 Piece
Apparently, Rick Ross and Lil Wayne have gone green. After lending the Young Money millionaire his vocals for a recycled and renamed version of I'm A Star (see new single, John), Mr. Rozay has contracted Weezy F. to jump on...Read More
#19 - Tyga ft. Chris Richardson - Far Away
As anyone who's ever committed a relationship-ending f*ckup is well aware, the psychological distance created by one breach of trust can be harder to bridge than any amount of physical space. Judging by the latest single off...Read More
