SONG: “Popular Demand (Popeyes)”
ARTIST: Clipse f/ Cam’ron

• The cover boys and Killa’s highly anticipated collab has finally arrived. Pharrell handled the production. Even after all the hype, we’re not disappointed.

SONG: “Hit It On The Road (Remix)”
ARTIST: The-Dream f/ Juelz Santana

• Juelz is all about rapping over the R&B records these days. This time it’s The-Dream’s groupie anthem. Look for this on the Reagan Era mixtape.

SONG: “Turn It Up”
ARTIST: Ciara

• Here’s an alleged leftover from CiCi’s Fantasy Ride album. Understandable decision. It’s not a badddd song necessarily, but nothing about it stands out.

SONG: “Southside (Remix)”
ARTIST: Birdman f/ Rick Ross, Mack Maine, & Lil’ Wayne
DOWNLOAD: [LINK]
• Pretty much what you’d expect from a song with these four artists on it. That means different things to different people though. We might let this spin in the whip or something, but not too much more.

SONG: “Rik Smits”
ARTIST: Asher Roth

• Asher rapping over a Saigon beat? Weird. He kinda does his thing though. This may or may not show up on The Greenhouse Effect 2.
