Insomniac...


Nyquil Mixtape of the Week – (noun) A group of five (5) songs that you are currently sleeping on. Either you've never heard them or forgot how much you really love them. Regardless, you need to brush the dust off your CD rack and play them or add them to your collection.



1. "F**k Off" – Kid Rock ft. Eminem, Devil Without A Cause
In light of the success Jay-Z and Linkin Park had mixing rap and rock, peep these two Detroit natives mix it up nearly 8 years prior.


2. "Who's Next (X-Clue-Sive)" – DJ Clue ft. DMX, The Professional 2
At a time when people were wondering if Dark Man fell off, X reminded folks why he was dope enough to change the game back in 1998.


3. "Hidden Hand" – Fat Joe ft. Terror Squad, Don Cartegena
One of the best Pun verses ever, do you need another reason to hear this track?


4. "Sports, Drugs & Entertainment" – Cam'ron, S.D.E
Before "Computers computin'", Killa actually cared about his rhymes. He definitely brings it with his imagery and storytelling on this album's title track.


5. "Two Dope Boyz (In a Cadillac)" – Outkast, ATLiens
All their commercial success aside, these two dudes can flat out rap.
