#19 - Back when Wiley and Skepta were best friends they hooked up with the rest of the BBK camp and brought this tune "Too Many Man". There was definately too many man in the video but it was a tune none the less. Boy Better Know at number 19.
#18 - This one definately had the perfect example of an odd couple, but their differences still ended up working well together as the tune was a hit. Giggs brought the streets to the pub as he collabed with Mike Skinner for "Slow Songs" at number 18.
#17 - I know certain guys are gonna relate to this one. I was feeling this tune for a few reasons. The beat was a lot. The lyrics were on point and the video was jokes lol. Its called "Couldn't Be The Wifey", its by Messy and Spokeman and its number 17!
#16 - This next one is "Ransom" by Bashy. They layout of the tune and its verses were great. All put on one nice beat with a cool mini movie. Can't go wrong with that. Futhur more its Bashy, Scorcher and Wretch 32 so say no more init. Anyone ever wonder well the girl went though? Hmm. Here's number 16.
#15 - The ladies will probably feel this one the most. But whether you're a man or a woman or in between, you can't help but admit the tune is catchy. Go ahead and play this when you wanna 'beat' again lol. JLS at 15!
#14 - The ravers will know about this one. Still being played. Can you skank to it though? lol Its "Stick Up" by Dotstar at number 14
#13 - Maybe we're about to get into number 13. Maybe its by Ozzie B. Maybe you should watch out for the remix. And Maybe its a "Maybe Ting" at 13!
#12 - Everyone was on this tune when it came out. The ladies were singing it like it was a cure to problems and the guys were watching the video to learn how to not get caught slipping. Boy, I wouldn't wanna get caught cheating on a girl like this lol. Meleka with "Go". Its 12.
#11 Mr Munk, Chip Diddy Chip, whatever you wanna call him, he's doing it right now. With two consecutive MOBOs you can't really hate on him as an artist and "Oopsy Daisy" is another reason why. Featuring Dayo Olatunji here's 11.
#10 - Now we in the top 10. And Devlin starts that list off with "London City". Recognise any of the places in the vid?
#9 - POW! Yeah its Lethal the B. But this time its "Go Hard" and its featuring big man Donea'O at 9.
#8 - Big time positive collab here. Personally one of my fave funky tunes. Donae'O, Meleka, Rollin' G, MC Neat, DJ Luck, Fr3e and KIG all jump on one track for the 'It Doesn't Have To Happen' campaign with this new track called "Don't Shank Just Skank". I'm liking it! And its number 8!
#7 - This tune here is a bloody anthem. You know them people who just phone you for no reason. Just play this tune to them. I might have to put this as my new voicemail message you know. Like literally, don't phone me just cuz you got my number lol. Featuring Griminal, its Ghetts with "Don't Phone Me". Number 7.
#6 - Definately one of the artists of the year! Tinchy Stryder. He came hard with this tune. Everything was on point here. Its "You're Not Alone" at number 7.

#5 - And its Bish Bash Bosh at number 5 with "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire". Psst I know I do. Video was kinda unique still. And the beat was banging still. And he's on the grind stiiillll lol. Shullup!
#4 - G-FrSH is exploding all over the scene right now and this tune is one of the reason's why. Dude has so much swagger he can just say "urgh" for the whole track and get away with it lol. Call him Flash Gordon cuz he's flash, its G-FrSH WITH "URGH!". Number 4.
#3 - And its down to three! This next one is beautiful R&B here (no homo) Young Nate layed down some slick vocals on a wonderful beat. I know plenty guys out there wanna sing this to a girl lol and girls don't front, if a guy sand this to you properly you would go weak lol. Look at for the remix too. Clock the Richard Blackwood cameo. Its Young Nate at number 3 with "I Wonder".
#2 - At number 2, its probably the hottest group out right now. The Marvell boys are in the building. Shocka, Vertex and Double S come through with "Make Noise". Personally one of my fave tunes of 09. The verses were hard and there was no slacking what so ever. Eddie Kadi was a joka in the vid too. Here's number 2.
#1 - Finally we've reached the end of the list. I ran through all the tunes that I thought were big this year. All the UK urban tunes including Grime, R&B and Funky. I showed some established names and some up and comers but at the end of the day it was all good music. And now without futhur ado, lets check out number 1. I personally thought this tune was the biggest of the year. Catchy, simple and great beat. It features Taio Cruz who is already a great artist in his own right. Then you add East London's own Tinchy Stryder to the mix and you got a certified hit. The remix was also good but right now its about the original. Pretty cool video too. Its Tinchy Stryder featuring Taio Cruz with "Take Me Back" at number 1!
