Top 10 Music Collabos We Want to See in 2013
We live in genre-bending times where artists and fans are no longer chained to any one particular music style, but can pick and take from multiple song samplings and create their own unique sound and voice. There's no better example of this than the recent trend of DJ-rapper hookups that's been springing up, with success stories such as Usher/Guetta, Calvin Harris/Rihanna and Kanye/Daft Punk. Now we have our own predictions for this year collaboration gold - take a look:
10. Asap Rocky x Britney Spears
If we're lucky he'll pinch her butt on stage after a performance too.

9. Kendrick Lamar x Skrillex
This pair can deliver a fresh unique sound. Kendrick's already experimented a little with EDM on synthpop-rap track "Bi**h, Don't Kill My Vibe."

8. Jay-Z x Calvin Harris
Calvin Harris produced Rihanna's smash hit "We Found Love" and is already signed to Roc Nation. It's only right he adds some EDM funk to a Hova record, being that he's his new boss and all.

7. M.I.A x Eminem
Both rebels at heart, these two can break some sh*t on a record.

6. Rihanna x Willow Smith
Dr. Evil and Mini Me's number "Just the Two of Us" (also sung by Willow's daddy Will Smith) comes to mind.

5. Frank Ocean x deadMau5
Imagine Frank Ocean's soulful voice over a sinister deadmau5 EDM beat? Makes for an emotional track that you can kick some ass to.

Her soft smooth voice and his emo sentiments, this MIGHT work!

2. Miguel x David Guetta
David Guetta made magic with R&B songbird Kelly Rowland already, now this time Miguel can put that special sexiness on it, get the ladies going … to the dance floor?

1. Keri Hilson x Diplo
Think of Diplo's "Barely Standing" track off Express Yourself. Next redo that beat, because let's face it, no two Diplo beats sound alike. Now add Miss Keri Baby's vocals on there. There's a song you can wine to, jump around to, and who knows what else?
