Artist: Fort Minor
Track: Believe Me
Album: The Rising Tied
Year: 2005
Fort Minor is most commonly known for their song "Where'd You Go" off of the same album, but this track is my favorite by them. If that doesn't sounds familiar, I'll throw a well-known band name at you now: Linkin Park. Fort Minor is the creation of Mike Shinoda, one of the two main singers of Linkin Park. He features several vocalists on this album and Bobo & Styles Of Beyond sings in "Believe Me".
This is one of the few hip-hop songs to which I know all the words of the rap verses, but no one will ever catch me singing them. Oh well. I love the beat, especially in the bridge. It almost has a bit of a conga feel to it.

Artist: CYNE
Track: Pretty Apoloo
Album: Water For Mars
Year: 2009
WARNING: This song does contain explicit content, but very little.
I haven't featured any hip-hop yet, so here's a little something. CYNE's track "Pretty Apollo" has been in my music collection for a while now and I still love it. Maybe it's because of the title, but when I listen to the opening to the song, I see a space shuttle launch in my mind. The song has an uplifting beat and feel-good lyrics. Plus I really like main vocalist's voice and that's surprising for me, because I'm not a huge fan of most hip-hop/rap.
