Top 10 Hip-Hop Singles 2012
1. Swimming Pools
Pour Up...Drink! Once you hear those first two words, you already know the next part. The second this song hit the internet it was a huge success. This single definitely deserves to be number 1 on the list because you really can never get sick of the song. Kendrick Lamar really has out done himself this year.
2. I Don't Like
Chief Keef really out did himself with this song, well at least Young Chop did with the beat. This was a must like, must play, and must have song everywhere. This hit song got blew up on YouTube and caught the attention of a hip hop favorite, Kanye West. Although Chief Keef recently released album Finally Rich flopped and he has been in a lot of controversy this year, "I Don't Like" was a major success.
3. Thinkin About You
I bet that you're still singing this song? Frank Ocean took over in 2012 with this single. With 6 Grammy nominations and his album Channel Orange going gold, Frank Ocean demanded attention this year. Behind all of the controversy regarding his open letter, Frank Ocean still managed to come out on top.
4. Turn On The Lights
Future poured his heart out in this song, and we definitely can hear it. Future deserves every piece of credit this year, finally receiving some recognition for his work. "Turn On The Lights" brought Future to the next step in his career by getting him a feature on Rihanna's album Unapologetic.
5. Mercy
The G.O.O.D Music Crew dominated the summer with "Mercy." Although Cruel Summer wasn't what most of us expected it to be, "Mercy" exceeded beyond every expectation. "Mercy" was that song that you thought you got sick of, but when you hear it playing you can't help but to sing it.
6. No Lie
Drake on any hook is a great combination, but this year Drizzy really out did himself. Being on a song with one of 2012 winners, "No Lie" was bound to be a major success.
7. Bandz A Make Her Dance
Juicy J really out did himself with this hit single. With perfect beat produced by Mike Will and the simple catchy lyrics to match, Juicy J bandz made everyone dance. "Bandz A Make Her Dance" was the perfect song for every party.
8. Birthday Song
Along with "No Lie" 2 Chainz released another hit single off of his album Based On A T.R.U Story, "Birthday Song" which features Kanye West on the song. I guess they are like Snoop and Dre because we just can't get enough of the two of them together. After this song everyone wanted it to be their Birthday.
9. Beez In Da Trap
Yes, 2 Chainz is back but this time he is featuring on Nicki Minaj's song "Beez In Da Trap." Debuted at number 1 on billboard "Beez In Da Trap" reminded us that Nicki is a rapper since she has turned pop lately.
10. Work Hard Play Hard
Last but not least Wiz Khalifa "Work Hard Play Hard." Who can forget this catchy beat and chorus? This song helped make Wiz the Rock Star he is!
Conscious VS Trap After Vince Staple tweet about not wanting to be placed in the conscious rap label last Wednesday evening, Hip Hop heads voiced their opinion on the sub labels of hip hop. I am highly offended by the term conscious rap don't associate me with that. — Vince Staples (@vincestaples) August 12, 2015 This brings me to talk about the topic. Should hip hop have sub genres? Hip Hop was founded on the fun of mixing together music with rhymes and developed into storytelling, word play, political power etc... The culture of hip hop will always include the elements of DJs to turn the tables, a microphone to spit the bars, graffiti to paint the images, and the infinite break dancing. Introduced in the late 70's were hip hop pioneer groups like, the Sugar Hill Gang, who were the first hip hop group to enter into mainstream media with the classic anthem "Rappers Delight," which expressed pure fun, funkadelic beats, rhymes, and basic flow. During th
What A Time To Be ALive "What a time to be alive" is the title of Drake's & Future's collaborative project, that Drake recently confirmed via Instagram. The two rappers have been hinting about the collaboration over the past week via social medial, and like everyone else we've been keeping our eye out. . Drake recently shared the artwork for the project on Instagram, captioning it " WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE” will be available at 8pm EST, Sunday on ITunes. So stay tuned for the review! The internet went crazy after the release of What a Time to Be Alive , Drake and Future collaboration project. After thoroughly listening to the new Drake & Future album What a Time to Be Alive, I've concluded that this is the best club banger album of the year. Yes, I agree with the audience. Now comparing What a Time to be Alive to Watch The Throne is a far stretch, but I will say Future and Drake delivered on their expectations. This is the str
Day 11 Well my current relationship status is single. At the age of 22, being single have its ups and downs of course. I've developed a lot of mixed emotions about the single life. In 2014 I broke up with my ex boy friend of two years and I've been back "on the market" since. I enjoy having the freedom of not really answering to anyone about who, what, when, where I'm doing whatever it is I'm doing, but the single life does get lonely sometimes. Since my break up there's one guy that truly caught my interest and our situationship has been a complete roller coaster and I'm not sure it's even worth the ride. Wait, let me go back and define what a situationship is in case you've never heard of the term. A situationship is basically a pseudo-relationship masking itself as a formative relationship.
