Since the holidays are here, we thought we’d share our 5 favorite hip-hop/R&B holiday songs of the moment. Let us know what’s on your playlist.
5. “This Christmas” – Chris Brown
Chris does the Donny Hathaway classic justice with his rendition off the soundtrack to This Christmas. The movie wasn’t too bad either.
One of the few hip-hop/R&B holiday songs that stands the test of time. It makes us wish TLC was still making records.
3. “8 Days of Christmas” – Destiny’s Child
This song always gets us in the holiday spirit. Although Beyoncé probably wouldn’t stand for no “crop jacket with dirty denim jeans” from Jay this year.
2. “Santa Baby” – Run-DMC, Mase, Puff Daddy, Snoop Dogg, Onyx, Keith Murray, & Salt-N-Pepa
Hip-hop’s all-stars come together for the best Christmas rap song.
1. “All I Want For Christmas Is You” – Mariah Carey
Classic. This is one of the few songs that you don’t get tired of hearing year after year. No wonder it’s currently #9 on the most downloaded songs on iTunes.
