The Best St. Patrick’s Day Songs
In honor of St. Patrick’s day, I have made a list of the top five St. Patrick’s Day Songs. What makes a song a “St. Patrick’s Day Song”? Well, think about it. St. Patty’s is all about green, so it’s gotta be a song all about about green!
5. Ignorant Sh*t- Jay-Z & Beanie Seagal: The song about all the ignorant things in Hov’s life is, truly, a mockery of the people who only rap about money, but, hey, it made for a GREAT song.
4. B*tch Betta Have My Money- Tyga, YG & Kurupt: This is exactly the kind of track that Hova was talking about in “Ignorant Sh*t”. But, the neat is SO hard, and YG Foe Hunnit always provides a good verse.
3. Rack City- Tyga: Although this track is vastly overplayed, it is a really catchy song over another banging beat about throwing money. Tyga seems to be really good at rapping about his money…
2. Make It Stack- Lloyd Banks & A$AP Rocky: As a break from the banging beats, Lloyd Banks provides us with a pretty trill, for lack of a better word, instrumental which A$AP Rocky absolutely rips (no surprise there).
1. Duffle Bag Boi- Playaz Circle & Lil’ Wayne: This is at the epitome of Weezy’s career, when his hooks were GREAT (including this one). Also, this track basically introduced 2CHAINZZZZZZZZZZ to the mainstream rap scene, where he has carved himself a nice niche.

Download Link & Lyrics: “The Don” – Nas
The man who gave us arguably the best hip-hop album of all-time in “Illmatic” once again blessed us with his impeccable flow on his new track, entitled “The Don”. Nastrodomus took this title from his favorite movie of all-time, “The Godfather”. Over on RapGenius, we have all the lyrics explained. You can also download the track here.
Download Link: “Cashin’ Out Freestyle” – Wale
The most Ambitious man in the world blessed his fans with another one of his freestyles. Wale is honestly one of the few modern rappers who can be impressive in a freestyle that is really a freestyle. Download the track here. 
Download Link: “Wild Boy Official Remix” Machine Gun Kelly ft. 2 Chainz, Meek Mill, Mystikal, French Montana & Yo Gotti
Kells got an all-star crew to spit over the official remix to his hit with Waka Flocka, “Wild Boy”, and he added another sick verse himself. Plus, he even got the real Steve O on the remix. Download the track here.
Download Link: Wiz Khalifa “Taylor Allderdice” Mixtape
We saw today just how large Taylor Gang is. The release of Wiz’s latest mixtape, “Taylor Allderdice”, crashed Datpiff’s servers and slowed many, many other generally reliable hip-hop websites. However, I have managed to find to download links that work: you can download the tape from MediaFire here, or from LiveMixtapes here.
Jay-Z Live Sync Show
One of the best to ever do it is breaking down a barrier today, becoming the first person to ever sync a concert live online. Hova is doing it at one of the biggest stages at SXSW. Check out the live show for yourself below.
Download Link: “Of the Soul” – Mac Miller feat. Posdnous, Raekwon
Some guy I’ve never heard of, the most active current member of the Wu-Tang Clan, and Mac Miller drop a remix to Mac’s track off Blue Slide Park, “Of the Soul”. Download the track here.
YG Foe Hunnit and Meek Milly drop a track about–wait for it–being a thug (with an original title). But seriously, the beat is banging, and the verses are nice. Download the track here.
