Best of 2012 - Features

As much as we can be fans of particular artists, or love to see what an artist can do for themselves on their albums...you just can't deny a good feature or guest spot from another artist. What makes a "Feature" a best to me doesn't necessarily mean someone gets Eminem'd on their own shit, sometimes it's just the added energy to the track. Other times it's the impression that feature leaves and what extra push that guest spot gives the track [on or off the song]. Hit the jump to see what artists and which of their verses were my "Best of 2012"

BEST of 2011: SONGS

These are my picks for best songs of 2011.  Now remember most of these are songs I kept in rotation throughout the year so I may have missed some of the ones you guys feel strongly about.  Feel free to

throw in your songs...I may have missed a few.

BEST OF 2011: FEATURES

I'll start with features because this category isn't about artist and their song.  Every other category has more to do with the artist themselves and their product.  This is my opinion so you don't have to agree...in my eyes these are the guest appearances that made you forget whose project you were listening too.  This about that extra addition that made you run the track back or go yo is that...?

DRAKE f/ LIL WAYNE & TYGA - THE MOTTO (MUSIC VIDEO)

Drake ~ The Motto Featuring Lil Wayne & Tyga (Official Video) from OctobersVeryOwn on Vimeo.

The song everyone hates to love and the video everyone loves to hate...it wasn't a game changer (nor do I think I should be) but at least they went to the Bay to pay homage correctly. Mistah F.A.B., Droop-E and of course E-40 make an appearance.

YG x NIPSEY HUSSLE x SNOOP DOGG f/ DRAKE - THE MOTTO [RMX] (MUSIC DOWNLOAD)

So the OG and two of the upstarts take Drake's west influenced track from Take Care and give a lil L.A. gangsta twist.  Dirty but with tags.  The official dirty will be out soon enough.  But for now just listen to this one that YG tweeted.

The Motto [RMX] f/ Drake - YG x Nipsey Hussle x Snoop Dogg

DRAKE CO-SIGNS ASAP ROCKY & KENDRICK LAMAR (VIDEO)

Drake speaks highly of ASAP Rocky and touches on why he fights to bring out new artists like ASAP and Kendrick Lamar.  This went down during their NY stop as they kicked off the Club Paradise tour.  Shouts to Blow Hip Hop TV for making this happen then sending it over.

DRAKE COVERS COMPLEX MAG

Pretty ill concept in my opinion...you guys are free to form your own.

KARMALOOP TV: SNEAKER PIMPS PHILLY w/ KENDRICK LAMAR & RICH HIL (VIDEO)

Karmaloop asks Kendrick Lamar and Rich Hil about their best and worst kicks.  Also see what Kendrick will be wearing on tour with Drake.  I know exactly what he'll be wearing (before this video) but it's because I got inside scoops.

DRAKE f/ LIL WAYNE - THE MOTTO (MUSIC DOWNLOAD)

New single that Drake premiered while I was in the club on Sunday...then he brought this by Power 106 last night, it hit the nets and here we are.  Let's just say Drake even found an anthem for the ratchet in us all...

The Motto f/ Lil Wayne - Drake

KENDRICK LAMAR TALKS ABOUT LINKING W/ DRAKE (VIDEO)

The title alone breaks it down...peep it out.
