    From rapper B.o.B.'s debut album "The Adventures of Bobby Ray". The first version of the song, titled Airplanes, leaked a few days back...

    The second version, featuring Eminem, just leaked about an hour ago.

    If Eminem keeps rapping like this on Recovery we'll have a classic!

    The album itself will probably leak by tomorrow. Looking forward to it.

    Haley Williams parts are lame and uninteresting, it could be Kesha singing that for all I cared. Sounds no different than anyone else out there. B.o.B is pretty bad too.

    Eminem is awesome here though.

    Yeah, as much as I like Hayley normally, she just sounds boring here. Eminem really shines. I so hope he raps like this on Recovery.

    Ohhhh shit yeah, I like!
    Williams sounds the same as always: absolutely generic and nothing special, possibly even more so than usual though. Not to say she's bad on this, but yeah, nothing special at all.

    Hayley's part didn't do much for the song. It was ok though. She didn't showcase any of her vocal talent. B.o.B's parts were ok too. The really star is Em once again killing it on a feature. If you're going to have Em involve you better step up. but hey. pretty decent track overall.

    It's a hip-hop track, not exactly the best place for a singer's best natural voice to shine. Especially since she has like two lines to sing which the producer's put effects on. Really odd for her to be on this in the first place actually.

    But yeah, Em pwns.

    I think Hayley did a decent job. It was refreshing to hear a punk-ish voice instead of the RnB type that we usually hear on hip-hop hooks.

    I like Hayley's part. I think the lyrics are simple but really good :)

    The songs in general are pretty damn good though :D

    I'm not much of a fan of rap. But this is a really good song.

    I'm pretty sure this guy is going to be at Bonnaroo, which is pretty fucking awesome. I'll have to try and remember to catch his set on Thursday.
