Juicy J Featuring Young Thug, Nicki Minaj And Lil Bibby “Low”
People can recall how awkward Juicy J's performance at the BET Awards preshow was. It was't that the setlist was bad — he ran through his feature on "Dark Horse," "Stay Fly" and "Bands A Make Her Dance."

Lil Kim “Hot N***a (Remix)”

Black Milk And BADBADNOTGOOD “Now Or Never”
Black Milk is a Detroit MC/producer who's known for rhyming over the jazzier, subtler he beats makes. No Poison No Paradise provides a solid representation of his aesthetic with a bit more experimentation.

Meyhem Lauren And Buckwild Mix Booty And Breakfast In “Silk Shirts And Yellow Gold” Video
The average straight male wouldn't mind a woman's posterior around him most of the time. Except breakfast. Then it would be a bit of a nuisance to have a butt in your face while you're getting your morning helping of nutrition.
