Doesn't seem to be a whole lot happening in this category. Any takers?

An OK list resides at the FADER blog done by Catchdubs who's usually really on point:

"Deja Vu"

aw hot damn I have already been contemplating this for a week or two or more. for sure I think the rentals "getting by" is included. Also perhaps the clash's train in vain. if you feel like looking somewhere for it, the envy corps' sylvia is a good summer jam

There's gotta be something on that E-40 record. . . .

Not all brand new, but I've been listening to a lot of hiphop radio as of late, and the stations seemed to have formed a consensus WRT these songs getting mucho airplay, plus they all have that "summer jam" feel to them:

Kelis- "Bossy"
E-40- "Tell Me When to Go"
Cassie- "Me & U"
Sean Paul- "Temperature"
Daddy Yankee- "Rompe"
Field Mob & Ciara- "So What"
Chamillionaire & Krazie Bone- "Ridin' Dirty"

― naus (Robert T), Saturday, 17 June 2006 03:47 (twenty years ago)

fuck a radio, bossy is mediocre at best.

respectfully nominated:
lil jon - snap yo fingers
xtina - ain't no other man

― yuengling participle (rotten03), Saturday, 17 June 2006 03:55 (twenty years ago)

Also:

E-40- "U and Dat"
Lil Jon & E-40- "Snap Your Fingers"
Too Short- "Blow the Whistle"

...and more hyphy!

Either that (c)rap or Blue Cheer's "Summertime Blues". Metal seems to be very much en vogue right now. The kids just love that shit. Can't wait for the imminent electro-pop-metal explosion (DFA'79/MSTRKRFT, I'm looking in your direction).

― nancyboy (nancyboy), Saturday, 17 June 2006 09:16 (twenty years ago)

so far its Chamillionaire "Rahdin'." Its swangin'.

― veronica moser (veronica moser), Saturday, 17 June 2006 11:20 (twenty years ago)

veronica and naus OTM, it's Chamillionaire all the way. nobody else has anything out that comes close.

"Calvary of Light" by Lavender Diamond (The advice that her voice teacher gave her makes sense now. Give expression to your impulse to be adored. (paraphrase))

Rick Ross is v. photogenic.
Kinda surprised you guys put him on the cover over a single hit though, Nick.

― deej.. (deej..), Saturday, 17 June 2006 18:34 (twenty years ago)

Or has his album leaked? I haven't really been paying attention.

― deej.. (deej..), Saturday, 17 June 2006 18:37 (twenty years ago)

The "Promiscuous Girl" song is so catchy, it's like HPV.
