Curing the midterm blues

I'm sure everyone has the midterm blues right about now; I know I do. As for those of you who have your midterms this week, I honestly feel sorry for you. If you were like me, hemmed up in the eighth floor of the library for some peace, you know what the midterms blues are like. So, in honor of frying brains due to upcoming exams, I think it's only right to listen to some music that's going to get you hyped up. Of course not hyped for studying or anything, just pumped enough to get your brain on the move when you start to dose off.
Right now, "Money in the Bank" by Swizz Beats is still hot for me. If this doesn't wake you up, I'm not sure what will. If it doesn't, download the remix with Young Jezzy, Eve, and Elephant Man.
I know at this point, "crunk" music is kind of played out, but I find it still relevant. Especially in the car on a long drive and the only thing that's keeping you from falling asleep is a Red Bull and your talkative passenger. So get some crunk music and some throwbacks:
-Mr. Big Tyme - Check My Footwork
-Youngbloodz - "Damn!"
-D4L - "Laffy Taffy"
-PSC, Lil' Scrappy, T.I. - "I'm A King
-D4L - "Betcha Can't Do It Like Me"
-Trap Squad - "What's Happenin'"
-Throwback Boys - "Stacks On Deck"
-Boys In The Hood - "Duck When I Bust"
-Ludacris ft. Field Mob, Ray Charles - "Georgia"
If these don't wake you up, I don't think I've done my job very well. Until next time, remember to always download safely, and most importantly, legally.
