Another dope track from the #TDE camp... Soul spits "Wish i could put the BS behind me, and yes i been fresh, you need sterilizing.... and yes i been left, and you aint invited... everytime im arriving, everybody excited...". This is a dope song, uplifting, heartfelt lyrics from a dope artist. Look for Ab Soul to blow up in 2012, even more so than he already has. http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/longterm-mentality/id428131719
#69 Jay-Z & Kanye West- "Niggaz in Paris" (prod. Hit-Boy, Kanye West, Mike Dean)
This might be the biggest club track of the year. Definetely a dope track. I dont htink i need to quote the lyrics. Funny how there still ain't no music video for this. This year Jay and Ye' balled so hard... i think its too late now and they should just drop one of the other tracks vid. http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/watch-throne-deluxe-version/id455402261
#68 Bad Meets Evil (Royce Da 5'9 & Eminem)- "Fast Lane" prod. Supa Dups
An ill track, with a dope video. Royce and Eminem on top of their lyrical steez, Eminem spits "Catch me in my mercedez, bumpin ice ice baby, screamin shady till i die, like i have a pair of dice, life's crazy, so i live it till the foolish, like im swayze, n you only live it once, so im thinkin bout this nice nice lady, there aint no stoppin me now before i get on a roll (danish!)...." Eminem back on his shit... this track is ill, no other way to describe it. http://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/bad-meets-evil/id148485360
#67 The Cool Kids - "Penny Hardaway"
A dope collabo. The Cool Kids and Ghostface Killah? everything about this song is dope, from the beat to ghost's verse to the cool kids steez. Listen to it above, and cop "When Fish Ride Bicycles" here: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/when-fish-ride-bicycles/id445984549
#66 Random Axe "Jahphy Joe" feat. Danny Brown
A Dope ass track and collabo between Random Axe and Danny Brown. Brown spits "I would never fuck ya bitch, she walk like an aadvark"... Sean Price spits "When 2pac shakur, got locked up north, i had 2 blocks of raw and a glock for support... listen"... A dope track, all verses are murder. Tracks like this are why this is one of the most consistent and dope albums of the year. http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/random-axe/id441376881
#65 Nemo Achida "Nemotional"
One of the dopest tracks of the year. Nemo Achida has quickly become one of my favorite artists to check for. HIs Goodbye Brooklyn EP caught my attention, and then Nemotional confirmed it. This title track off the latter project, consists of Nemo spitting "From the beginning i knew i was a star, 10 year old girls played rock paper scissors, just rob me on the handle bars"... Peep the video above, and get the album for FREE here: http://www.djbooth.net/index/mixtapes/entry/nemo-achida-nemotional-lp
#64 Dom Kennedy "Goodbye" prod. Chuck Inglish
Dom Kennedy linking up with Chuck Inglish? well the result was as expected, FUCKING DOPE. Peep this bangin track, with ill lines such as "Shit is simple, my young niggaz, grab ya pens and pencils, dont try to be all flashy, just work on the fundamentals, dont go between ya legs, before you even learn to how to dribble, and the man that has a lot, i bet he started with a little". Peep the song above, and get the album "The Original Dom Kennedy", one of two dope projects that DOm dropped this year, here: http://www.datpiff.com/Dom-Kennedy-The-Original-Dom-Kennedy-mixtape.207507.html
#63 Thurz "Rodney King" prod. Ro Blvd.
Former U-N-I frontman, Thurz dropped a dope concept album called "L.A. Riot" this year. Regarded as one of the most slept on projects of the year by publications such as hiphopdx, this song "Rodney King" where he raps from the perspective of Rodney King is unique, and entertaining yet breathtaking in its realism. Peep the track above, and cop the album here: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/l.a.-riot/id455698257
#62 Big K.R.I.T. "Dreamin"
Another ill track off the Return4eva project, written, produced and performed by Big K.R.I.T., whom along with Kendrick Lamar and Freddie Gibbs, made the most noise among any artists in 2011.

#61 Common "Ghetto Dreams' feat. Nas (prod. No I.D.)
