Hip Hop Charts 2004
Believe it or not, this is only a partial list.
There are about 10 more songs whose titles I don't know. I've got them on tapes and CDs, but still can't ID them. We'll get to that in a later entry.
As usual, feel free to post anything I missed or dispute the arbitrary rankings.

great list in terms of variety. I wish I had the work ethic to compose my own.
Kanye West "We Don't Care" ??? Out of all his others this is the one you choose?

I have a few things to add.

Thanks D. Sorry about the tags. It's a spam thang. What player should I use for those .ogg files?

Where can I find King Fish-Dark Helmut? Do you have any reviews of the CD? I've heard good things

On Windows, I think the latest winamp (5?) probably plays ogg files? On Mac, I have no idea. Linux and other free systems: xmms does a nice job.
winamp.com
xmms.org

please send review of king fish dark helmut mix.

From TurntableLab.com...
Dark Helmut - King Fish
price: $9.00
available: yes
item #: cd-1026
"Here's the handwritten note that came with this one: "Dark Helmut is a badass mixtape. It is 199 tracks in 35 min 16 sec. It is a project aimed at music and social concepts. It took me nearly 1 year to complete and is reminiscent of mixtapes such as Mr Dibbs' Turntable Scientifics. The mixtape was made with 2 turntables and a digital 8 track. All content comes from vinyl and movies." The kid delivers- anybody who sets it off with "do the truffle shuffle- NOW!" is ok in our books. And yeah, 199 tracks sounds about right, but this is no messy juvenile stew- more like layers that keep getting piled on top of each other, quick dialogue fixes talking to each other, little break sections, and winding themes that tie the whole thing together. Mixtape composition of the traditional, hard earned variety."
here is a link to where it can be purchased...
