Anyone have any suggestions for some new songs for me to upload to the ol' ipod? I need some new music in my life!

I'm mostly into hip hoppy stuff.. stuff that makes me wanna shake my bootay!

any suggestions?

well this isn't hip hop... but I like the song L.E.S. Artistes by santogold.

Do you have Paper Planes by M.I.A. yet? That's always a fun one.

A new one I just recently put on my iPod is Say Hey (I Love You) by Michael Franti & Spearhead.

And one that isn't so hip-hoppy but is DEFINITELY booty-shake worthy is I Don't Feel Like Dancing by Scissor Sisters.

I've been on a Janet Jackson kick lately. A few other songs that are on my playlist-

Nas- Hero
Nas- Hip Hop is Dead
Nas- If I ruled the world
Anything by Pharrell
99 problems- Jay-Z (offensive but gets me moving!)
The theme from the Sopranos (A3's Woke up this Morning)
Pheromone- Prince (also kind of offensive)
Seven- Prince
Live- Pain lies by the Riverside
Paper Planes- M.I.A.
Outkast- B.O.B.
Work It- Missy Elliot
Go Getta- Jeezy
Sorry- Madonna
Higher Ground- RHCP
Renegades of Funk- RATM
Trouble Man- Marvin Gaye (ok, this one is weird, but I LOVE it)
Common People- Pulp

Just some of my hip hop-ish ones. Mos Def and Talib Kweli are also on heavy rotation for me, and most of their songs have good, steady beats without being too fast or hard.

thanks guys!

One of THE BEST workout songs I listen to is Til I Collapse - Eminem.
I'm not usually a big fan of his, but this song jus tmakes you wanna work hard! ahah

I added Incubus - Sick Sad Little World today. I don't like Incubus but it's a great song!

Since you're also an Ani fan there are a couple of songs off of her new album that are fun to work out to. Alla This and Emancipated Minor (Should be FWS, but it's a Youtube link so I can't vouch for the comments.)

LOVE this song, so funky!

I love threads like this cause I'm always looking for new music too.

Although I have 65 songs in my run list on ipod I put down about 25 that really get me going.


Collective Soul - New Vibration, Persuassion of You, Hollywood
Eve 6 - Inside Out (I LOVE this song)
Goo Goo Dolls - Long Way Down
Jimmy Eat World - The Middle
Lenny Kravitz - Where Are We Runnin', Are You Gonna Go My Way, Bring It On
Maroon 5 - Wake Up Call, Harder to Breathe
Ok Go - Here It Goes Again
Puddle of Mudd - Blurry, Psycho
The Ramones - Cretin Hop
Shinedown - Fly From the Inside
Sister Hazel - Everybody, One Love
Soul Asylum - Cartoon, Get On Out, Miss This
Third Eye Blind - Blinded
The Ting Tings - Shut Up and Let Me Go
Van Halen - Right Now
3 Doors Down - Running out of Days, Changes

Edited to add: oops! just saw that you are mostly into hip hop; these songs mostly aren't but they are good and cardio worthy just the same. Sometimes its fun and refreshing to mix it up and try different genres.

That's OK. It was the first list for which I had heard of most of the songs and/or artists .

Here's the play list I used when running a 5k last week:
Timbaland - Apologize
T-Pain (feat. Akon) - Bartender
Boxcar Racer - Cat Like Thief
Baby Bash (feat. T-Pain) - Cyclone (this one really gets me movin! tho I always want to dance while running to it lol)
Fergie - Fergalicious
Young Jeezey - Go Getta (love this one too!)
Rihanna - Hate That I Love You
Ginuwine - **** Yeah
Shakira - Hips Don't Lie
