No Sleep - Wiz Khalifa

Speed: 80 bpm Recommended bpm range: 80 bpm to 85 bpm The DJ’s Take: It's pleasant enough, but who's to say that this couldn't have been done by a tween pop singer? Or Kid Cudi ? If this continues to get popular, I could see Kidz Bop doing a pretty authentic-sounding cover in the near future. Anyway, mix this with Beyoncé's Halo (the original version) and there's another 6-7 minutes where you don't have to worry about people not knowing what you're playing. Download the MP3: iTunes Amazon

All Of The Lights - Kanye West ft. Rihanna, Kid Cudi & Fergie

Speed: 71 bpm The DJ's Take: I actually heard this for the first time on the PA when I went to a basketball game at my college alma mater. Now it feels like it's gaining steam based on recent requests I've gotten for it, and with good reason. Those rapid fire fake hand drums bring back memories of that beat from Slow Jamz , and Rihanna reminds the dudes why Matt Kemp is a lucky man. Definitely worth a download and a spin. Try mixing with Drunk in Love or Dark Horse . Download the MP3:
