The Dream – Shawty is a Ten featuring FabolousĮven though The Dream is T-Pain repackaged. But I’m feeling this song, her album is good too if you have an open ear. I have no clue how I got into listening to her. Who? I know this is not even urban, some white chick from Canada singing muffled folk tunes. I hated on the video for the green screen video (sidebar: So did Jay-Z). DJ Khaled – I’m So Hood (remix) featuring Lil Wayne, Big Boi, Plies, Fat Joe, Busta Rhymes, Young Jeezy, Ludacris, Rick Ross This song is the theme music when you quit your day job (like I did). Alicia sounds like she’s madly in love on this joint.Įven this video was mad boring. But after I paid attention to the lyrics I was blown away. Oh yeah and little Chris Brown destroyed the MTV Awards showing he got next.

Most of them, I can’t stand, this one stands out. T-Pain’s been on every one’s single this year. You already know I fell about this mixtape. Songs like “I feel like dying” and backed by East coast sounding production helped make this mixtape a must have for everyone. This mixtape will go down in history as the mixtape that got the East coast interested in Weezy.

#2 Lil Wayne – Da Drought is Over 2 (Tha Carter 3 Sessions).

I never knew it was possible to make your mixtape better than your album Hell Reezy proved me wrong this year by dropping Eat A Box of Bullets which completely smashed his debut album For the Hell of It. But at least he made his presence felt with this mixtape. Killa came back with a vengeance (not really). The Best of 2007 is broken down into the following categories Best Rap Album, Best Mixtape, Best Singles, and Best Rapper. Though we also got a Soulja Boy album, maybe that balances everything out.

We got a Common album, a Kanye album, Lupe album, Jay-Z album, Joe Budden mixtape, Talib album, Styles album…So it was a nice year for the music artistically. 2007 was a pretty sick year for hip hop, aside from record sales.
