The answers are not all hits, they could be album tracks or from performers I've never heard of, so you have been warned. A small number of solutions, while not hip hop, are very left field. Good luck, as usual two answers per day till I deem it's gone on too long. Grumbling about the clues for this particular quiz, while not really accepted will be tolerated.
