1. Beyonce- If I Were a Boy

The ex-Destiny's Child star has been all over the radio the past few weeks with her brand new song, 'If I Were a Boy.' The first single off her new album, which is due out Nov. 18, 'If I Were a Boy' is a departure from her normal style, with a mostly guitar driven sound reminiscent of a rock ballad.

Next time your driving down I-95, be sure to tune into Z100 or K-Rock, which has been playing this song continuously.

3. T.I.- Live Your Life

Although I really wish my housemate would stop blasting this song at all hours of the night, I must admit it is a catchy track. Kicking off with a nod to Moldovan pop music trio O-Zone's 'Dragostea Din Tei,' the shrill intro melts into Rihanna's familiar voice.
T.I and Rihanna are a great pop tag team, with their vocal chemistry producing one of the biggest hits of the Fall.

4. Britney Spears- Womanizer

Despite all the media backlash and constant scrutiny, it's going to take an atomic bomb to take this girl down.
She may be a terrible parent and an unorthodox role model, but she sure can write a mean Top 40 hit. 'Womanizer,' just like all other Britney songs, is an instant pop hit.
