NOT EVEN IN DA CLUB?!?! - No G UNIT SONG? - No Lollipop or A Milli from Lil Wayne. - No Kendrick Lamar from Good Kid M.A.A.D City or his control verse - No Ja Rule? - Only one Nelly Song?

That Lil’ Jon song has not aged well. A song doesn’t always have to be a huge hit to be consider one of best of that year. Impact, quality and memorability is more important. You’re out here blabbering and crying in the comments about what you feel what belongs and what doesn’t belong here. If you feel that way why don’t you make a playlist of what you feel it’s the best song L’s of each year. Everyone has their own opinion and you’re entitled to yours.
