In the past 20 days the real Preem fans could vote for their best beat in 2008. It was a long time very very close for the second place, and till the last hour (!) it was too close for the fourth place with only one vote difference! And the winnar is with a total of more then it double of the runner up -no shit-:

Grey Hairs” was far one of the best -how do i say this- slept on albums of this year, Statik Selektah has proven in 2008 that he is a stayer on production level. He really putting it down like hell! “Say Goodnight” is using again a soundtrack as sample, it’s from a French movie. DJ Premier and Reks are a perfect collabo, Reks is H-A-R-D. He won with 30%.
