Young Money + Lloyd + Trey Songz + Fabolous


There are many, many things in this world I don't understand. Why isn't Ke$ha president? Why is everyone so flippin' in love with Drake? (Dude's fine and all, but is he really as good as everyone seems to think?) Will the Mavericks ever win a championship? And finally, will the Cowboys ever win a playoff game?

However, the question that's most recently haunted me is this: how is it that Young Money's "Every Girl" could peak at number ten on the Hot 100 while their remarkable "BedRock" is stuck at number twenty? It's true that you might as well call this the Wayne + Lloyd show, but who cares? The former's got a nice verse and the latter straight kills the chorus. This thing is stupid infectious and should be played everywhere at all times.



However, there do exist places and times in and during which "BedRock" should not be played. Example: where and when "Say Aah" is bumping. Trey Songz kills it throughout and Fabolous continues to destroy everything in his path. Five months ago I was shocked to find myself seriously feeling a Fabolous cut; now I fully expect to be wildly into anything he puts out. This track is most certainly no different.

Fabolous + Keri Hilson + Drank


Not gonna lie - never was a huge Fabolous fan. Yet the other day I heard a track on M.T.V. Jams that had me absolutely twitching with excitement. (Rather, I heard it three times in two hours. But still.) And as y'all might have deduced, it was a Fabolous cut. Surprising to say the least. I mean it's not that I ever disliked the dude, but none of his songs had ever tickled my fancy quite like this one. But this one - oh, this one. Killin' it.

Anyways, y'all probably noticed the lovely Keri Hilson in the above video. And yea, I'm a big fan of hers. Anywho, check out the Drank product placement in her video for "Turnin Me On." Really gotta try that stuff. No New Hampshire vendors? No surprises.

Drake + Fabolous


Everybody. Loves. Drake. And quite frankly, I just don't get it. I'm into the dude's singing, but his rapping just doesn't do it for me. And though I could understand a dude with his skill set racking up a sizable fan base, I never expected him to hit number two on the Billboard Hot 100. Seriously.

But enough with the hate. Dude just teamed up with Fabolous for his "Throw it in the Bag" remix. And, well, it's hot. Maybe I just like the original. Maybe it's Drake's bit that really does it for me. Honestly, I dunno. What I do know is that I'm well into this here track. Check it:

Maino + The World - "Hi Hater"


I'm pretty sure the video of some dude towing Maino's "Hi Hater" van (and proceeding to give Maino's famed wave) was posted on more blogs than was the actual "Hi Hater" video. And because I'm a great guy with outstanding morals, I feel that it's my duty to take a step towards rectifying this horrifying situation.

Dudes love to credit the success of this tune to it's novelty (the wave, of course) alone. However, the song's a quality effort. I mean, there's definitely a reason Swizz Beatz, T.I., Plies, Jadakiss, and Fabolous signed on. The video may or may not be boring as can be, but boy do I ever like the track.
