Welcome to the Booth’s Top Independent Hip Hop Chart! As always, your feedback has determined which songs made the cut. Each chart’s lineup is calculated using a special DJBooth.net Formula that takes into account member ratings and reviews as well as features’ overall popularity.
Last week’s front-runner, StartYourOwnRebellion‘s “Let It Go” andTech N9ne‘s “I Love Music,” respectively, drop to sixth and fall off the chart entirely. Debuting in their place are another Tech N9ne joint, “Worldwide Choppers,” and Rhymesayers signee Grieves‘ “Bloody Poetry.” All in all, 14 new features enter the Independent lineup, including Booth-exclusive world premieres from Will Brennan (“Get By,” in fourth) and Nikki Lynette (“The Beautiful People,” in 11th).
