Title: Single of the year for 2007
Post by: jeromechickenbone on December 27, 2007, 07:14:14 PM
Alright motherfuckers, I think this section is slacking.  I blame 14 year olds and lazy OGs.  So lets talk about some relevant shit.  What the fuck was the best single released this year?  Well I'm not asking, I'm telling you.  It was untoubtedly:



UGK ft. Outkast (Prod by Three 6 Mafia) - International Players Anthem

This song was single of the year before Pimp C passed, and now it's even more deserving.  This song is fucking sick on about 5 different levels.  I'm not gonna go that deep, but I'm gonna say this:  DJ Paul and Juicy J are phenomenally talented, Bun B is the most underrated MC in the game today, Andre 3000 is on his own fucking planet (as evidenced by the fact that 3 6 couldn't match the beat to 3000's off beat flow), Big Boi is more than just the Scottie Pippen of Outkast, and last but not least, Pimp C lets us know how real he is "My bitch a choosy lover / Never fuck without a rubber / like it on top of sheets / never underneath the cover  / money on the dresser / drive a kompressor, etc...  A perfect 10 out of 10 joint for me.  6 legends, perfect production, and true lyricism in every verse.  Sick ass shit.

yea, gotta agree with that one for sure. all 4 KILLED it..big boi flow :o

but i think it's wrong to say that after pimp passing, it's more deserving. not 2 sound rude, i miss pimp as much as any fan, but rappers tend to get this recognition and new fanbase when they die..the single is just as hot before pimp's death.

If you re-read what I wrote, I clearly stated that this was the single of the year prior to Pimp's passing.  I'll even dig up the thread when this song first popped off in like May and I made the statement back then that it was the single of the year...

^dude thinks he always right..he said its even more deserving after pimp's passing..i said i think that's wrong...he said i lack comprehension?? that don't make no fuckin sense

nowhere did i say that he said its ONLY single of the year cause of pimp's passing, but he DID clearly say it's more deserving now

and i lack comprehension :D

My personal favorite is "Real Talk" from R. Kelly, but "International Players Anthem" was something we hadn't heard before. Great song!

Very valid arguement.  Cham is without a doubt one of the most talented and original cats in the mainstream today.  Loved that joint.

My fav main stream single this year was "The Way I Are" by Timbaland and Keri Hilson. Her voice is amazing!!

I wasn't feeling any other hip-hop single by any artist. Only albums I did like were Sunday School and WC's album. Not one other song, on any other album, this year, did I like :(

^^^ You need to check Ulitmate Victory, I have it in my car for 3 months and STILL haven't got tired of it. The last time it felt like that was uhh..... Doggystyle ? For me that is of course.

Top 5

1.UGK-Gravy - sick fuckin beat, bun b and pimp c spit it so beautifully, and that fuckin' bass line, cot damn!
2.Jay-Z-Say Hello - Probably one of my favorite Jay-Z songs of all time, jay gets back to his drug roots
3.Little Brother-When Everything is New - What can I say? "Dope beats dope rhymes nigga thats Hip Hop"
4.UGK-Int'l Players Anthem - It's already been said already...
5.Evidence-Letyourselfgo - Alchemist rips this beat, Phonte drops the hook, and of course Mr. Slow Flow shows how well he's improved

Co-sign on both statements.  Even though I rarely heard that song on radio or video >:( Shoulda been played more.  That single & Kanye West-Stronger.  I was gonna do a best song of the year but there would be way too different on opinion there.

My favorite tracks that came out this year were:

Styles P Feat. Black Thought - Cause I'm Black
50 Cent - I Get Money

So far as best single, I'm wit Hatesrats ;D

No competition

"50 CENT - I GET MONEY" WAS THE DOPEST SINGLE THIS YEAR

I'm still bumpin this shit. 50 should have released this as his 1st official single and then AYO Technology.
It would have blown up.
