2.15: Lil Jon
Ok, ok. Yes. It seems like the DJ, producer and Grammy-winning King of Crunk is here every eight weeks. (Psst. That’s because he is.) But it’s hard to argue with dude’s ability to lead a party. His latest single, December’s All I Really Want For Christmas (feat. Kool-Aid Man), is a perfect example. It’s nearly impossible to find a holiday jam that bumps harder than that one.
