The 5 Best Rap/R&B Hooks of 2011... According to Roscoe Dash
"It’s really dope. She really stepped out the box and I’m all about being different. Anything thTS it’s different, I attach myself to it. I frel like music or hip hop in general has been so traditional for so many years and so when you have people, especially icons who have been doing this for so long that’s tryna encourage other people to do something different, its really inspiring. It’s a great thing."

Kanye West and Jay-Z "Niggas In Paris"
"I really like that song a lot. I was actually there when it was being constructed and it was a really dope experience to just sit and watch…I was like wow, this is something I would never expect from Jay-Z and Kanye West. They always make different music, they always make music that’s like an introduction to something else that’s about to come…They always do the unthinkable. They really took it to a whole ‘nother level. They really tried to appeal to everybody, not just the audience that they already had."

Drake ft. Nicki Minaj "Make Me Proud"
"It’s not just because Nicki’s on the track, but because it’s encouraging. I like to see people who are doing something positive...I can appreciate somebody who don’t have to encourage people but is doing that because they choose to do that

Young Jeezy ft. Andre 3000 "I Do"
"Love that song. I heard Andre’s part a while back before the song was actually put together…and I was like ‘Yes.” I like it from the beat to everything about it. It’s just really, really dope."

Wale ft. Miguel "Lotus Flower Bomb"
"I actually took part in that but that’s not the reason why I like it. *laughs* But I really like that record. It’s for the women, something that is really smooth, really sexy – a mood-setter. Miguel is really dope, Miguel’s voice is just crazy." (Dash helped a little bit in making the second hook right before the vowels are sung out.)
