"Turn My Swag On" - Soulja Boy
You don't have to like his music but he is not killing Hip-Hop so cut the crap.



"You Can Get it All" - Bow Wow
Yeah, yeah i know he used to be 13. But now he's grown and knows how to make a good record. Plus your sister probably wants to do him.



"Can't Believe it" - T-Pain
Even Mr. D.O.A. himself couldn't deny T-Pain's impact. He's an incredibly talented dude and right now, you need him to sell a record.



"Ego Remix" - Beyonce ft. Kanye West
Yes, i went with a feature because this dude is an incredible rapper. He's not just a good rapper for a guy who produces, he's one of the best. Period.



"Dancing on Me" - DJ Webstar ft. Jim Jones and Julez Santana
New York City is not dead. Never was and never will be. Thank you very much. This isn't a best or worst argument. Just don't act like NY turned into Kentucky.

1. "My Brother My Ace" – Smoothe the Hustler ft. Trigga the Gambler
These two real life brothers mastered the back and forth flow. The ending to this song is legendary


2. "B.A.N." – David Banner
He kills the Boondocks sample. Hilarious.


3. "40 and a Blunt" – Dax Efx
They slowed down their flow for this album and it's a hidden gem in Hip-Hop's annals



4. "Something You Forgot" – Lil' Wayne
One of my favorites from the millions of mixtape records


5. "Today Was a Good Day" – Ice Cube
Just Because

1. "Never Scared"
The first time I ever heard of T.I. was on this Bone Crusher joint. Its not that the verse was so great but I had this weird feeling that drew me to him. It was that "it factor" I guess.


2. "Rubber Band Man"
He always had a hunch for making straight anthems. How many people talked about their money in rubber bands after this?


3. "U Don't Know Me"
Also great at the call and response songs that got the audience participating in all of the hooks.


4. "What You Know"
Seriously? This is where I thought his peak was.


5. "Ready for Whatever"
I was wrong.
