Singles-wise then the MIZZ BEATS Hoodie remix for LADY SOVEREIGN is in poll position for favourite as are JME’s Single, WILEY’S Sidewinder, JAMMER’S Murkle Man, SKEPTA’S Private Caller and various rave lyrics (was there a rave on this year that Skepta and Jammer didn’t reach?), PLAN B impressed mightily with his disturbing 4-track EP, SWAY’S Little Derek, I-WAYNE’s Can’t Satisfy Her and both SEAN PAUL and JAH CURE’s take on DON CORLEONE’S Seasons riddim were heartbreakingly huge. Also, AMERIE’S 1 Thing remix with Eve, MARIO’S Let Me Love You, the numerous Welcome To Jamrock’s (ROSSI B’s NASTY remix in particular), FIELD MOB Georgia, GUCCI MANE So Icy, DAVINCHE’s Misty Blue, in fact the Dirty Canvas instrumental album as a whole, PAPOOSE’s You Can’t Murder Me, JAY’s Dear Summer, WILEY/ MIZZ BEATS etc Saw It Comin’, 50’s Hustler’s Ambition, GAME’S 300 Barz, Hard Liquor, My Lowrider and the phenomenal MARY J assisted MVP, GHETTO’S Run The Road, KANO’S Mic Check remix, KANYE’S Diamonds remix with JIGGA and Jay again on the remix of JEEZY’S Go Crazy, KRAY TWINS’ What We Do, BOBBY VALENTINE Tell Me, MIKE JONES’ (who?) Still Tippin and Back Then, PAUL WALL’s Sittin Sideways, THREE 6 MAFIA’s Still Fly and its remix, PRETTY RICKY’s Grind With Me, CASSIDY’s I’m A Hustla remix with MARY J, KIM’s Woah and Lighters Up, D DOUBLE’S Signal, TRIM’s They Gave Him An Inch, LOW DEEP’s Cheeky Violin remix and Straight Flush, SKREAM’s beyond brilliant Request Line, Forward 2, FOXY and SIZZLA’s Come Fly With Me and SIZZLA’s I’m With The Girls on the Warrior riddim, FUMIN’s Back Slang, SKEPTA’s Single. Indeed, lyric of the year has to go to Skepta and his ‘Oh my diddy/ I load magazines like Chantelle Fiddy.’ B-rap!
