Updated: See See Our Final List of the Top Songs of 2010

Despite the despairing reality that some of us may have just stopped writing "2009" on our checks, 2010 is here and some of our favorite artists have already delivered noteworthy tracks for our listening pleasure. Check out our picks for the top song of 2010 ...so far.


Redman, 'Oh My'

Though his last album, 'Red Gone Wild,' didn't really pop off, Redman set off 2010 with a head-knocking preview of what's to come on his seventh album 'Reggie Noble 9 ½.' With its fresh interpolation of Kool & The Gang's commonly sampled 'Summer Madness,' 'Oh My' is one of the dopest tracks to come from one of Jersey's finest in a long time, with rhymes that namecheck everything from 'Family Guy''s Quagmire to the Jacksons. For a guy that's pushing 40, Redman only gets better with age.

Raekwon, Ghostface Killah and Method Man, 'Our Dreams'

Three of Wu-Tang's finest ended 2009 with a few teaser clips touting the release of a collaboration album that failed to materialize by its December due date. But that didn't mean that the trio wouldn't deliver on its initial promise. The Chef, Tony Starks and Meth trade verses over a sample of Michael Jackson's 'We're Almost There,' painting lyrical pictures with whip-smart quips ("We melt like cookies and cream," growls Ghost).
