#1 - Lil Wayne ft. Rick Ross - John
I don't know about y'all, but these past few months I've been praying to the hip-hop gods that installment number four in Lil Wayne's Carter saga will be every bit as brilliantly insane as its predecessor. While 6'7” was a...Read More
#2 - T-Pain ft. Joey Galaxy - Booty Wurk (One Cheek at a Time)
I don’t mean to reveal too much about what goes on behind-the-scenes here at the Booth, but I’ve pretty much got my pick of songs to write about each day, and I tend to pick songs that seem the most entertaining. So,...Read More
#3 - Trey Songz ft. Drake - Unusual
When Trey Songz lets you know right off the bat that he’s gonna get a little nasty, prepare for a romp that’ll make you either blush or run to your nearest corner store for a pack of rubbers. The R&B lothario and his...Read More
#4 - Fabolous ft. Lil Wayne - That's Not Love
Fabolous promised that his new The S.O.U.L. Tape, which he says is loosely inspired by Jay-Z’s classic Blueprint album, would feature more seriously minded material, and sure enough when the project was released today it...Read More
#5 - 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
#6 - Kelly Rowland ft. Lil Wayne - Motivation
From her Destiny’s Child days to the review I wrote for her previous Ms. Kelly album, I’ve heard my fair share of Kelly Rowland. Still, I’m no Rowlandologist, so while I’m sure truly dedicated fans will be brimming...Read More
#7 - 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
#8 - 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
#9 - 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
#10 - Curren$y - #JetsGo
Less than a week after dropping Covert Coup, an eagerly anticipated project produced by The Alchemist, Curren$y is back with a new single #JetsGo. The rate at which this guy releases high-quality material is stupefying, and...Read More
#11 - Pitbull ft. Ne-Yo & Nayer - Give Me Everything
Known for pumping out hits like BP pumps oil into the Gulf (is it too late for that joke?), Pitbull has developed the perfect formula for that thing we call the “single.” Year after year, I’ve heard a Pitbull song...Read More
#12 - Miguel - Sure Thing
In pop music as in love, the only Sure Thing is that there are no sure things. (And before anyone says anything, yes, I do realize that statement is self-contradictory.) Judging by the positive Booth feedback the...Read More
#13 - Ryan Leslie - Glory
Though Ryan Leslie's last single, Joan of Arc, met a positive reception in the Booth, the praise was tempered with some ambivalence in regard to the R&B heavyweight's decision to try his hand at rhyming. Even our own DJ Z...Read More
#14 - Ludacris ft. Slaughterhouse & Claret Jai - F5 (Furiously Dangerous)
Scheduled to hit U.S. theaters on the 29th, the fifth entry in the Fast and the Furious franchise promises to be the fastest and most furious yet. OK, to keep it one-hundred, I haven't seen a single F&F flick... but, hey, the...Read More
#15 - Chris Brown ft. Ludacris - Wet the Bed
After a tear-stained MJ Tribute, a hit single that’s also become popular slang (Deuces) and a growing number of guest features (see Keri Hilson’s One Night Stand), I think it’s safe to say that the Chris Brown comeback...Read More
#16 - T-Pain ft. Chris Brown - Best Love Song
Valentine's Day may be over, but T-Pain's still spreading love the best way he can: through the same whimsical AutoTune stylings that have become his signature. Thankfully, the Nappy Boy CEO took a break from buying...Read More
#17 - Wiz Khalifa ft. Big Sean - GangBang
You’ll be hard pressed to find two artists hotter at the moment than Wiz Khalifa and Big Sean. The Pittsburgh native is at an all-time high, catching another gust of wind after the Super Bowl and his color-oriented single...Read More
#18 - Keri Hilson ft. Chris Brown - One Night Stand
While her latest album No Boys Allowed has performed decently Keri Hilson is still looking for that one monster hit to catapult her back into music’s elite (a la Knock You Down and Turning Me On). Could it be new single One...Read More
#19 - 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
