Our staff has selected the Top 8 singles for the week of June 2 – June 8. This week’s list is led by Chris Rivers and Kool Keith.

Chris Rivers – Sincerely Me
Chris Rivers announces his new album, G.I.T.U., which stands for ‘Greatest In The Universe,’ an acronym Chris often leaned on and repeated to himself when he was depressed to help push him thru and releases the project’s first single, “Sincerely Me,” 

Kool Keith ft. Joell Ortiz & B-Real – Zero Fux (Nottz Rmx)
It’s been more than forty years since Kool Herc started throwing parties in the South Bronx, and so you could forgive the casual fan for thinking that nearly every permutation of hip-hop has already been explored.

Kool Keith – Turn The Levels
Keith is, of course, one of the pivotal figures in the history of hip-hop, and has been one of the genre’s most singular writers and original voices. The Bronx native was a founding member of Ultramagnetic MCs, whose debut album, 1988’s Critical Beatdown, served as a blueprint for both internationally famous acts like Public Enemy and for the entire future of underground rap.
