Songs I like from that list: 92. Erick Sermon (ft. Marvin Gaye) - "Music" "To relax my mind so I can be free" are the first words on Erick Sermon's "Music." Isn't that what comes to mind when we hear the words "music" and "Marvin"? Erick holds his own, but Mr. Gaye puts on a hell of a performance from the other side. 66. Snoop Dogg (ft. Pharrel) - "Drop It Like It's Hot" © GeffenSnoop dropped this one in the hovering humidity of '04 and watched it sit on No.1 for three weeks. By now, everyone had learned one thing: never bet against The Neptunes. Jurassic 5 - "What's Golden" © Interscope"What's Golden" hearkens to Jurassic 5's mission statement. Merging conscious rhymes with old school beats was the forte. And they held onto those values all the way to the end of the group's run in 2007. 35. OutKast - "Ms. Jackson" © LaFaceAndre 3000 and Big Boi, in their creative ebullience, dazzled with 2000's Stankonia. Arguably their best LP, Stankonia, scored 5 mics in The Source and spawned three of the year's most popular songs: the ferocious "B.O.B.," the swaggerlicious "So Fresh, So Clean," and this here baby-mama-drama anthem "Ms. Jackson." 20. Missy Elliot - "Get Ur Freak On" © Atlantic Records/ATGMissy quickly became a favorite in the 2000s on the strength of her progressive production and innovative videos. "Get Ur Freak On" is a testament to her array of artistic strengths. It combines disparate elements that have no business being in the same pot together: Indian strings, tribal drums, Chinese gibberish. The result is a cohesive gem that sent ripples across the airwaves. 10. Dead Prez - "Hip-Hop" A bouncy anthem that showcased DP's versatility while underlining their commitment to activism. damn the 2000s sucked hey?

This tour is going to be from April 14th-April 30th I think.. UK & Europe..

Will Smith's pre-teen pop sensation daughter Willow is keeping the collaborators for her debut album close to home - she's working with her father's former hip-hop partner DJ Jazzy Jeff. Willow Smith set the charts alight last year with her single Whip My Hair and she's currently recording tracks for her as-yet-untitled debut album after signing to Jay-Z's Roc Nation label. And she's taking her family's entertainment business full circle by teaming up with the DJ/producer - 25 years after he launched DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince with Will. Rapper Skillz has been recruited to write lyrics to Jeff's beats and he reveals he has his own history with Smith Sr. He tells BET.com, "Me and Jazzy Jeff are... working on some stuff for Willow Smith's album. I worked with her dad on a few projects before so you know I have a relationship with him. "It was just a natural progression, like, they're doing music so, you know, that door's always open. I'd be crazy not to try to walk through it, so we're working on some stuff." Willow, 10, also has her eye on another piece of her father's music history - she recently admitted she'd love to record a new version of DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince's 1988 hit single Parents Just Don't Understand. She said, "It's a really great song." http://www.abc24.com/entertainment/story/Willow-Smith-teaming-with-DJ-Jazzy-Jeff/O9yKsr9fFEiqfUCbRyh_RQ.cspx

Look at the people Will had on his last album before they became huge.. pussycat dolls..robin thicke.. he had jill scott on the rain before people knew who she was..

they are just putting out a very cheap version.. Warner Bros could have done so much more with a classic like that

happy birthday mate!

I can't believe I missed that news.. So there is actually a Game/Will track! very interesting!

O-Money is working on the album.. he worked on Lost & Found.. so I know its gonna be good
