Rap Music Chart - July 22, 2013
*Both of last week's front-runners, Jay Z's "Holy Grail" and A$AP Ferg's "Shabba," make the jump to our Top Hip Hop and R&B Chart this week, clearing the way for J. Cole's "Crooked Smile" (an ex-Top Pick) and DJ Drama's "4 What" (formerly ninth) to take their place.
*Previously "Next Up," Hustle Gang's "Problems" enters the chart in 15th.
*Also down from our Top Picks, Wale's "Bad (Remix)," Fabolous' "When I Feel Like It," Cole's "N**gaz Know" and Kid Ink's "Money and Power" claim sixth, eighth, 11th and 16th.
*Wyclef Jean's "I Wish It Was Music," DJ Felli Fel's "Reason to Hate" and 50 Cent's "We Up" make their exit from our charts.
*Machine Gun Kelly's "Peso," Lil Wayne's "God Bless Amerika" and Wale's "LoveHate Thing" narrowly miss appearing on the chart. Your feedback and ratings will determine whether they make the cut next week!
