Top Songs (#07-05)
07 Make Her Say
Kid Cudi featuring Lady GaGa
Isn’t it amazing when an artist can sample a current hit and produce the same success? Kid Cudi went way out the box by sampling Lady GaGa’s Poker Face and it worked well. An unexpected matchup this song was, indeed.
06 Paparazzi
Lady GaGa
2009 was the year of GaGa domination. Who’s gon stop him? Nobody, so sit down! Paparazzi did not reach Number 1 on the Hot 100 because it was just too epic; there’s no other explanation.
05 Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart
Alicia Keys
This song was everything the first single wasn’t, a SMASH! Alicia finally realized the slow **** was getting boring and she changed it up with this midtempo. The song is full of so many emotions, but it doesn’t take you to depression. I don’t care if that doesn’t make sense. GET OVER IT!

04 Hard
Rihanna featuring Young Jeezy
This song goes HARD! I know many people are indifferent about Rated R, but there is no denying that this song is PERFECTION. Riri did not let anyone down with this one, and if you don’t like it then you probably don’t even matter. Yup, you know this!
03 Halo
Beyoncé
It was clear from the moment that “I Am… Sasha Fierce” was released that “Halo” was among the better tracks on the double disc. “Halo” is another song that just doesn’t get old; it’s like the first time every time I hear it.
02 Best I Ever Had
Drake
The first time I heard this song way before Drake became a superstar, I fell in love with it. No one could have told me that this song would have ever reach a radio station, but it did and millions of people downloaded it. This song is responsible for Drake’s success, and he need to never forget that.
01 Empire State of Mind
Jay-Z featuring Alicia Keys
I love home pride especially when I can relate to it because afterall I am from New York. This was my favorite song on the album, and it quickly became the song I would annoy my friends with by playing it constantly on repeat. This song just makes me feel good and I’m happy that non New Yorkers were able to enjoy it as well.
