Nielsen Ratings Top 10 aired Songs for 2007

This week, Soundscan parent company Nielsen released the Top 10 songs aired in the United States during 2007. Black Eyed Peas' Fergie topped the charts with 380,742 BDS spins of her hit, "Big Girls Don't Cry." The #2 honors went to crooner T-Pain's Yung Joc-assisted "Buy U A Drank" at 373,646 spins.

Other urban acts to make the Top 10 included Rihanna and Jay-Z's all-weather smash "Umbrella," as well as Beyonce's hit "Irreplaceable."

Oddly enough, Nielsen also released the Top 10 artists of overall domestic U.S. spins. The only urban act was former Pop star Justin Timberlake with 772,332 overall spins, coming in at #8. The "Sexy Back" star was in the company of over eight Country acts, including Rascal Flatts, Kenny Chesney and Toby Keith.

SUGE KNIGHT TOPS THE "10 MOST HATED IN HIP HOP" LIST

DOES THIS SURPRISE ANYBODY???

Is that a picture of Suge Knight or Rick Ross? I kid, I kid! Lol.

In an article published today in the Broward-Palm Beach New Times titled “The Ten Most Hated Figures in Hip-Hop,” writer Jonathan Cunningham makes a hilarious but well thought-out mock-up list of what he considers to be the ten most hated people in hip-hop. Now these aren’t all rappers, as evidenced by the fact that Suge Knight made the list. I mean, clearly Suge doesn’t rap. Karrine “Superhead” Steffans is listed at #2 and Diddy is at #3. DJ Khaled, who I personally dig, but can understand why people hate, is listed at #5. Somehow Fergie is #6, still being blamed for Black Eyed Peas becoming a pop rap band. Whatever.

I happen to agree with a lot of this list, but I don’t think the order is right. I also question the relevance of some of these people. I mean Suge is hated and all, but how many people are really thinking about this guy right now? Not many. And even though I dig the reasoning behind Soulja Boy being listed at #10 for basically being a one hit wonder, I don’t think many would agree with that. The only people who seem to hate him are old bitter rappers who despise the internet and can’t stand Southern kid hop.

Here’s the list, in order. You be the judge. Is the writer on to something or is he just plain on something?

10- Soulja Boy 9- Paul Wall 8- Cam’ron 7- Nelly 6- Fergie 5- DJ Khaled 4- 50 Cent 3- Diddy 2- Karrine “Superhead” Steffans 1- Suge Knight

NEW AUDIO: CHRIS BROWN , M.I.A., & FERGIE

Jordin Sparks feat. Chris Brown » “No Air” » LISTEN » (Full) » This is a new “rumored” single, “No Air,” featuring Chris Brown from American Idol’s own, Jordin Sparks. This is definitely a solid single, courtesy of The Underdogs, the only con I have is she oversings a tad towards the latter. Other than that I think this is a stellar pop ballad that is sure to top the charts almost effortlessly.

M.I.A> » “Paper Planes” » LISTEN » (Full) » “Paper Planes” is said to be UK rapper M.I.A.’s next single from the critically proclaimed album Kala. Finally, I’m overzealous about how the video might turn out. “Paper Planes” is possibly one of my most songs off of the album Kala.

Fergie feat. Will.i.am » “Pick It Up” » LISTEN » (Full) » “Pick It Up” is a new track, featuring producer Will.i.am, that can be found on the Japan re-release of Fergie’s certified double platinum-selling album, The Dutchess. Ooh, I like this! Nice, mellow, guitar driven ballad. Will.i.am was also a nice touch to “Pick It Up,” as he always is.
