100 & Single: LMFAO's Pair Of Chart-Toppers Suggest Stardom, Guarantee Nothing

F2K is a countdown of the 50 worst songs of the decade. Track our progress here. It's shit, snitches! After rap-rock had successfully worn itself down into a parody of self-parody, hip-hop producer Swizz Beats set out to make the most cartoonishly macho rapcore song in history. In fact, every ti ...
