Double elimination to get us started! No big losses for me personally. Both decent tracks that sound far better in their situated albums than on their own I think.
=30. Kanye West & Jay-Z - H•A•M (6 votes, 16.67%) "H•A•M" is a song by American rappers Jay-Z and Kanye West. It was released as the first single from their collaborative studio album Watch the Throne on January 11, 2011. It was produced by Lexus "Lex Luger" Lewis and Kanye West.[1] "H•A•M" has also served as the opening track to the duo's North American and European Watch the Throne Tour. The song peaked at #30 on the UK singles chart and #23 on the US Billboard Hot 100. =30. Kanye West - Bound 2 (6 votes, 16.67%) "Bound 2" is a song by American rapper Kanye West, featured as the final track from his sixth studio album, Yeezus (2013). It was produced by West and Che Pope, with additional production being handled by Eric Danchick, Noah Goldstein, No ID and Mike Dean. The song features vocals from American soul singer Charlie Wilson and serves as the album's second single. "Bound 2" incorporates samples from Wee's "Aeroplane (Reprise)", from "Bound" by Ponderosa Twins Plus One, and the line "Uh-huh, honey" from Brenda Lee's "Sweet Nothin's". The controversial music video features his wife Kim Kardashian West, topless, riding on a motorbike with West through various landscapes. "Bound 2" received general acclaim from music critics, who referred to the song as one of the highlights of the album, comparing its soul influenced, sample-based production to West's debut studio album, The College Dropout (2004). The song peaked at #55 on the UK Singles Chart and #12 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. =30. Bound 2 (6 votes, 16.67%) =30. H•A•M (6 votes, 16.67%) So which tracks do you predict will be out next? Should these two have gone so early? Which tracks don't deserve to be in the race still? Get voting and commenting below. For me, again, only 1 option in 'Heard 'Em Say'. Do the right thing people. Deadline: Friday |

H•A•M :'(
That was one of the absolute highlights when I saw him live (needs to happen again soon..), such an incredible experience. Not fussed about Bound 2 leaving, the only dud on Yeezus for me. Lift Off for me again. |

I thought 'Bound 2' would have had better reception than 'Black Skinhead' / the rest of 'Yeezus' (not that that's on here) to be honest!
Still voting for 'Stronger' I'll be here for a while ~ |

Surprised at the sudden surge for Otis given it didn't pick up any votes in the last round.
Can't say it is one of my personal favourites though, probably in my bottom half of Watch The Throne. |

Gutted that 'Bound 2' left SO early.
I have voted 'Lift Off' again, but not fussed at 'Slow Jamz' leading either. |

As much as I love it you have to admit it is kind of forgotten about now though? Certainly doesn't stand out on his discography. From College Dropout, I would say All Falls Down is more forgotten than Slow Jamz. I guess he was overshadowed by Twista & Jamie Foxx on it too, so people could forget he was on there. |

Sad about "Bound 2" as I thought it was more iconic due to "Nobody To Love"...
Voted for "Why I Love You". |

As if I'm the only person that's voted for the hideous piece of shite that's currently passing for a single!
As if H.A.M. went first! |

There are currently 4 songs tied to be in the running to be eliminated, so if people could break the ties that would be helpful

Are there? Looks like a clear loser in Slow Jamz to me.

Oh OK, must have missed that (I just assumed the first 2 went because they were tied).
*Hopes someone votes Otis* |

If someone wanted to vote 'Heard 'Em Say' they would make me especially happy.
