hits, according to Tom

1. The Life – Styles P. & Pharoahe Monch
Excellent raw hip-hop. But The Lox and Organized Konfusion????? What's next, Nelly & N' Sync?

2. Heaven - DJ Sammy
Bryan Adams covered and made a dance club anthem. Next up - House versions of Cuts Like a Knife and Run To You.

3. Papa Don't Preach - Kelly Osbourne
First she brought the house down at the MTV Movie Awards, now the video's homage to an old Nancy Sinatra clip. A surefire hit. Sister Amy was offered the song first, but turned it down, as she did the TV show. Piece of advice, Kelly, don't ask for stock tips.

4. Oh Boy - Cam'Ron
A bangin' beat. Thugged-out love. A video that insinuates implies fellatio. Pass the Kkleenex.

5. Nappy Roots - Aww Naw
Southern-fried-feel-good funk.
