Quik dropped one of the best, if not the best beat of 08.

^^ That was a nice read, props.My top 5 songs off the top of my head (in no particular order)1. Slim Thug feat. Devin The Dude - Bitch I'm BackI never was a big Slim Thug fan but this track is great. It involves quality storytelling about the positive and negative aspects of his career, fly Devin hook and nice laid back beat from Dre with a killer bassline. Great song to smoke to.2. Bishop Lamont - Grow UpDefinetly not what anybody was expecting but that's the type of rapper Bishop is. A single with actual substance, telling every rapper what we always say: to show growth, stop with the pety beefs and release quality hip-hop music; to grow up. Bishop could've went the safe rout and dropped a club or a chick singer but he took a chance and went out of the box. I smell a simillar outcome as Chamillionare had with Ultimate Victory, so Bishop is probably gonna get dropped. Dre delivered a beat with some fly guitars, polished piano and those big clapping drums. However, you can tell that the track wasn't completley finished (confirmed from Bishop and Dre), so again thanks to Matty for improving the quality.3. Ludacris - MVPLudacris over a Premo beat, nothing more to be said. Shame that the album was garbage but that's another story.4. The Game feat. Common - AngelJust a real feel good track, was great to listen to in the summer. Hook gives me chills everytime I hear it and Game & Common did the beat justice.5. Snoop Dogg - Press PlayA really strong opening of the otherwise weak album. Has that classic 99-02 westcoast feel with Kurupt doing the adlibs and Quik dropped one of the best, if not the best beat of 08.Sly Fox and Hero from Nas and No Matter What (T.I.) are next in line.
Bishop Lamont - I Can't Figure It Out (off The Confessional)

Shit, they even put out the instrumental. If you believe that it wasn't finished, then I don't know...
