My Picks For 2007's Best Singles
It's christmas eve, right? As one more Hannuka inclined I should be out eating Chinese right now at King Yen, in fact I may still, but even though my presence here at MOG has dwindled in the last 6 months I couldn't leave my precious MOG year-end-best-of listless. That just wouldn't be right!
So, taking cue from "fellow MOG buddy":http://mog.com/agntdoctorAndrew/blog_post/132705 (it's both a multiple of 5 and 6!) and a kid named Jasper here's my
BEST SINGLES OF 2007...Albums will come soon, i promise
1. UGK-International Player's Anthems
R.I.P. Pimp C. This song continues to amaze me, at times i doubted it, but single of the year for sure!
2. Justice- D.A.N.C.E.
it's cliched, i don't care, i still love it
3. Lil' Wayne
I know this isn't fair, but if I haven't said it before Lil' Wayne has forever changed the rap game for me. Honestly it's hard for me to listen to anything rap related these days becase nothing is as creative and witty and genious as Lil' Wayne. Lil' Wayne IS the best rapper alive.
4. T-Pain- Buy U A Drank
I'm gonna have a lot of explaining to do this year. If anything this year was the year of coming to grips with the fact that i actually love mainstream music. Sure it may be cheap and in this case, auto tuned, but it's catchy and still deserves it's place. Buy U A Drank...as kanye said, "fuck it, i'll buy the bar if you're worth it"
5. Rhianna-Umberella
It's undeniable that the Hova verse in the begining is completely unecesary (as much as i love jay and his new album), but the song still kills.
6. M.I.A. - Boyz
while I actually haven't actually found myself to be a big fan of of M.I.A.'s new album this song is undeniably amazing. Sure Paper Planes had it's moments, but there's so much gunshot snare I can take. Boyz reigns supreme
7. LCD Soundsystem-All My Friends
Pitchfork is right, what can I say
8. R. Kelly- I'm A Flirt (remix)/Real Talk
I owe all my love of R. Kelly to a one, Spencer Owen, he helped me find out everything i said in my #4 pick up there. R. Kelly's album is still playing on repeat in my car, i get some funny looks every once in a while, but it's worth it, especially when Real Talk is being slapped on blap or as high as I can get the speakers to go.
9. Devin the Dude ft. Snoop Dogg, Andre 3000 – What a Job
amazing
10. Panda Bear- Bros
Animal Collective and Panda Bear have killed it this year. Two of the absolute best albums and if this list went to 100 i think almost every track from both would be on here. Can't wait for the tours and new material.
11. Animal Collective-Fireworks/Peacebone12. Jens Lekman–Friday Night at the Drive-in Bingo/A Postcard To Nina13. Kevin Drew- Gang Bang Suicide14. LCD Soundsystem-New York, I love You But You're Bringing Me Down15. Los Campesinos-You Throw Parties, We Thrown Knives/You! Me! Dancing!16. The Klaxons-Golden Skans/Gravity's Rainbow17. The Shins – Sleeping Lessons18. The Cataracs-Rich Girl19. Feist- 1 2 3 420. The Pack – In My Car21. Yelle- Les Femmes22. Soulja Boy-Crank Dat23. Arctic Monkeys – Fluorescent Adolescent24. Keak da Sneak – In Front of Yo Momma 25. Beirut-Elephant Gun26. Uffie-Pop The Glock27. Sean Kingston-Beautiful Girls28. Timbaland-Apologize (remix)29. DJ Khaled- We Takin' Over30. The Mae Shi-Run To Your Grave
It's been a bit of musical ADD year for me. Not to mention that i've changed this list at least 10 times, I'm sure I'm still not happy with it, but Im just gonna leave it be and cringe next year. Merry Xmas everyone, and Happy Post-Hannuka. Best albums in the next week, sorry I was too lazy to put mp3's.
