10. Kanye West feat. Consequence and GLC – Spaceship

Spaceship

Ye talking about the time before he was famous will always sound funny now that he’s a superstar. The story of his job before music is pretty cool and the hook is great.

9. Talib Kweli Feat. Kanye West, Busta Rhymes, Jay-Z, and Mos Def – Get By Remix

Get By Remix

The epitome of the line “Made the beat then murdered it, Casey Anthony.”

8. Kanye West feat. Consequence and Cam’ron – Gone

Gone

The first two verses are great in their own right, but Kanye’s last verse is the best he’s ever spit in my opinion.

7. Pusha T feat. Kanye West – New God Flow

New God Flow

Kanye delivered his long sprawling verse full of knowledge, ignorance and quotables at the end of a couple great Pusha T verses on this track. What more can you ask for?

6. Kanye West – Dark Fantasy

Dark Fantasy

This song sets the mood for what is arguably Kanye’s best album. Can we get much higher?

5. Kanye West feat. Syleena Johnson – All Falls Down

All Falls Down

The first Kanye song I ever liked. Sounds brand new to this day.

4. Kanye West – Can’t Tell Me Nothing

Can’t Tell Me Nothing

Kanye’s first real street anthem and one of the catchiest songs I’ve ever heard.

3. Kanye West feat. Jamie Foxx – Gold Digger

Gold Digger

Kanye took his own style of soul sampling and flipped it on it’s head here. The most memorable song from Kanye’s early catalog.

2. Kanye West – Runaway

Runaway

A really unorthodox song with an amazingly creative and innovative video, along with a dope Pusha T feature? This is Kanye’s version of an apology and it’s genuis.

1. Kanye West – Power

Power

This song sums up everything Kanye is about. It really is THE Kanye West song of all Kanye West songs.

Listen to the new Daft Punk album in its entirety right off iTunes. Enjoy!

The Dillinger Escape Plan has premiered the third song off their upcoming full-length album, One of Us Is the Killer, due out May 14^th on the band’s own record label, Party Smasher Inc, in partnership with Sumerian Records. The song strikes the perfect balance between pure aggressiveness and beautiful melodies, an enormous feat for such a relentless band as DEP, and is enough to add on to the already high level of anticipation felt by fans everywhere awaiting the surprises that will be unveiled on the album May 14^th.  You can listen to the song “Nothing’s Funny” below.

From theberry.com.

There’s something about the rapping style of Ben Haggerty, otherwise known as Macklemore, which is so story-like that it makes it so ear-worthy. Even with his hit Thrift Shop, you can’t help but love it because it’s such a story, and a funny one at that. The American rapper seems to be taking the Hip Hop scene to new dimensions of story-telling, giving us a sense of his style. His single Can’t Hold Us, featuring Ray Dalton, seems to encourage us to listen to lyrics; his style is individual and seems to be his niche. Mix this with a killer beat and you’ve got yourself a pretty good track!

WATCH: Macklemore & Ryan Lewis – Can’t Hold Us ft. Ray Dalton

Macklemore’s debut album, The Heist, produced with Ryan Lewis could be an album to watch out for; it already sold 78,000 copies in its first week, and it was debuted in October 2012. It’s fair to say that Macklemore is making a name for himself in Hip Hop with his own stamp on Rap. I personally can’t wait for more collaboration with bigger names and artists, perhaps Pharrell Williams? Who knows, but I’m sure that we will get something newer and better from Mr. Macklemore soon!

Cut Your Hair – Mad Love

Now this is possibly the strangest but catchiest song I’ve heard for a while. Opening with the lyrics  “Raveee…” does make me think “what is this”? But I’m soon over that when I hear the wonderfully soothing guitar strings combine with the melodic piano riffs and vocals that may remind you of something from the 90’s . At first I assumed this was a generic indie pop band from Manchester or somewhere but after a little bit of research I found out they’re from the wonderful city of Barcelona, in Spain and I fall in love with them a bit more. The video for the song itself is very artistic and features the Spanish trio dancing on the roof of a building, playing the bongos and hanging about some abandoned warehouses covered in graffiti.

The single was released on 22^nd April on Mushroom Label and will not disappoint if you’re looking for a summer style tune!
