Ahh I had to take some time to really analyze, listen and figure out my rankings of these songs because it was really difficult. I really LOVE this list so much and think it's my personal favorite list of songs in this game series so far. I love all of the songs I ranked in my Top 10 (and struggled on which to rank higher/lower between some of them). And I like my #11, though that was my easy weak link and a song I would have replaced with many of the extras here.
Wow I missed so many extras posted here. But of those, my favorites would be:
- Luv 2 Luv U (Remix)
- We Be Clubbin'
- Gone Till November
- Ghetto Supastar (That Is What You Are)
- It's All About Me (ugh, so robbed of #1 on the R&B charts)
- Movin' On
- I Still Love You
- Money, Power & Respect
- How's It Goin' Down
- Do For Love
- The Arms Of The One Who Loves You
- My Little Secret
Dangg, once again... these songs reallly take me back! All SO good and such great R&B and hip-hop classics!

I'll submit as soon as I can.
Never knew "Into You" was actually based on a song from the 90's. "So Into You" would've been my #1 or #2 if it had been in the rankdown.
