Back for round 2. Song of the Year. This was a difficult one because two of my favorite songs reside on this list. While Kozza made an interesting point about the crossover factor for “Look At Me Now”, you can deny the damage “Niggas In Paris” causes in the clubs, on the radio, annnnnnnnnnnd it being performed at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on CBS. However, “Otis” is still my favorite song of the year lol.

Travis Porter lit up Atlanta last night for their 2nd Annual Christmas Concert. The trio performed a good portion of their catalogue, but started things off with the remix to their current single “You Don’t Know” featuring 2 Chainz and Young Jeezy.
