- 1. "A Thousand Miles" by Vanessa Carlton: "See I always liked the song until I saw the movie White Girls. This must be the white song that all black people like, you know every year there's a song that black people like and this is that. I love the string arrangements. Ron Fare is really up on the strings."
- 5. "Spaceship" by Kanye West, GLC & Consequence: "This is dedicated to anybody who has a job whose manager is coming down on them who doesn't understand that $4.25 an hour just isn't going to make it. This is one of my theme songs right here. I remember working at The Gap. It's a true story."
- 8. "Cause I Love You" by Lenny Williams: "This is the song that made me do 'Slow Jams.' Steve Harvey was playing it in the Kings of Comedy talking bout, there's no good rap, there's no good music anymore. We want to listen to stuff like this. It's also ironic that I used it for Twista's next single after 'Slow Jams,' 'Overnight Celebrity.'"
- 10. "Distant Lover" by Marvin Gaye: "You can't just explain why you like any Marvin Gaye song, but this one inspired the track for 'Spaceship.'"
- 14. "Scar Tissue" by Red Hot Chili Peppers: "Red Hot Chili Peppers are my favorite group of all times, he says 'broken jaw' on it too so you know I like that."
- 15. "The Reason" by Hoobastank: "Them my home boys I always see them we go to places like England and Canada. We always kicking it backstage you know just having a good time."
- 17. "99 Problems" by Jay-Z: "Man, Jay-Z was just snapping on these raps so hard and the way he did the other voices in middle, man he was killing that."
- 19. "How Many MC's..." by Black Moon: "N***a, this is how you know I'm really hip-hop if I picked this. This is a classic."

Kanye!!
I love that he just doesnt like one type of music genre. Thats why his music is great!
Kanye...
Really? Hoobastink? D**n dude. You broken.
A solid playlist.
Kanye's musical tastes are so similar to my own. That's probably why I like him so much. Red Hot Chili Peppers are one of my all time favorites. And how sick would it be if Kanye did a song with Anthony Kiedis?
