Hip-Hop|Club Banger Reviews (16) [November Edition Two]

We are in the middle of November now and Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Shocked that I'm updating twice in a month, but there are so many new album releases it would be a shame if I didn't. So give thanks to the new songs and have a Happy Thanksgiving. Enjoy. (Click on the pics for the tracks on iTunes)

Ke$ha - We R Who We R ~120 bpm
Release Date: Oct. 2010

Club/Party - 4/5
The Ladies - 4/5
Lastability - 3.5/5

This is one of Ke$ha's new songs. She has been releasing a few tracks in the past few weeks, but I feel like this one will be heard most in the clubs. It kind of sounds like some of her other songs, but again this song will make you dance and that's what matters. Remix it with other tracks and it will be amazing.

The Ladies - 3/5

I'm going to start including some trance/house music. Especially some of the really good ones that would be great in a mix and at the clubs. This one by Deadmau5 does not disappoint. It has a sick beat and makes you wanna go crazy.

It's not New Year's yet, but why not celebrate it with Snoop Dogg's new track. I like the feel of the song and it brings a certain swagger. A slow banger for sure, but I've always liked Snoop Dogg's tracks.

It's kind of unfair to review this track under the ratings I'm giving it. But make no mistake this an awesome song. Lupe Fiasco is one of my favorite artists and his new track is amazing. It has so much positive energy and I'm really putting this here, because I want to promote him. Highly recommended.

Club/Party - 3.5/5

This is a pretty decent club banger. It lacks that kind of spark, but it can be great in a mix. Fat Joe does what he does in this track. So if your running out of songs, add this one in for some spice.

Well here is the one of the albums that has released this month. Cassidy and his CASH album. It's a pretty good album and I always been a fan of Cassidy. This ones a slow banger. A good beat and Game is in it. They both pretty much tear this track up and you'll keep this bumpin' all day all night. No pun intended.

Again there are so many great albums this November and so much variety of music. Here is another one from Cee Lo Green. He brings back the 'ol school and this track is just plain fun. Very jazzy and great lyrics. This song you can still dance to, but I just plain recommend this song and his whole album. Yeah it's that good.

Another promotion of another good album. The last post I told you about how is album is about to be released. Well here it is. The album has released and it's different then what I exptected, but its still really good. There are really no club bangers in his album, but again I wasn't really expecting any. I pulled this track from his new album and it's just a really catchy song. You won't be disappointed by his new album.

Did I tell you that there are crazy amounts of new albums being released this month? Well here's another one. We haven't seen Nelly in a long time. Glad to see that he's back. His album is really good. And I wouldn't have expected anything less. This song is more of a fun happy song. Especially with Keri Hilson in it. Great recommendation for for any holiday parties. Oh and check out his new album as well.

Hip-Hop|Club Banger Reviews (15) [November Edition One]

It's the beginning of November and it's getting a bit chilly. Well I guess not if your in So Cal. Well everywhere else in the country it's getting cold. So here are some hot beats for you all to stay warm. Enjoy. (Click on the pics for the tracks on iTunes)

Kanye West's album is about to be released in a couple of weeks and here comes one of his other singles. Hot off of the album this song goes pretty hard. Not a true club banger, but this song will be remixed with other songs. You won't be disappointed and Halloween doesn't have to last only one day.

Kid Cudi is becoming of one my favorite artists. I really like his style of music and the beats are so smooth. So his album is about to be released in a week and of course a hot single comes off of it. This isn't exactly a club banger either, but more of a plug for Kid Cudi. Again this song can be easily mixed into a more uptempo beat and it can rock the place. Check it out.

This song has has the 'ol school 90's feel. It's because it is, the beat was taken from that era. Still this artist made this track more modern. I like the feel of it and it can be a good club banger.

This track makes you happy. I guess so more than others, but this song has a good feel to it. I guess you just have to listen to it to find out. It's very technoish too. Not a bad song by any means. I would play this like at a New Year's Bash or something.

A smooth slow banger. This one is a good one from Lloyd and even 50 Cent. This can be a great mix from the more uptempo beats. This song won't probably last, but it is still a good song nonetheless.

Most of the time when you think of Flo Rida you think of club bangers. Well this is more of a slow banger. It's still pretty good, but you will have to remix this and mix in it with your other tracks. I like the song, but it's a bit on the slower side.

This song would be great if you can mix this in with other songs. By itself it's just okay. It's not too bad, but if you need new songs to play then try out this one.

Good 'ol Ciara is back. And back haaard. This track is fast, bangin', and out of control. I definitely recommend this song in the clubs/parties and basically anywhere where you don't have to be quiet. Now can you keep up with song? That's the question.

This song goes hard too. All the artists on Lloyd Bank's track tears it up. The beat reminds me of an old school 8-bit game with hard bass. This song would be a great mix with other tracks. So why not play this song first? Start It Up...

N.E.R.D.'s album just came out and it again has funky beats and something a bit different for the clubs. These are the three songs I recommend, but their whole album is pretty good. You really can't go wrong with any of the songs.

So Pitbull's new album is out. And I have to say it's not too shabby. You won't be disappointed in any of his songs, because any of them can be played on the dance floor. I like this song the most, because he basically remixed this song with the No Americano track. And it's a pretty good one. Check out his album.

A track from 2008. Not a well known artist, but this is a pretty good club banger. Baby Bash is on the track so that's nice. We need club bangers from all different artists so check this one out.
