1. Kanye West feat. R. Kelly, "Flashing Lights"
Kellz adds a verse to the already-near-perfect Graduation track. The result? Perfection, obviously. [Idolator]

2. Supergrass, "345"
Only on a single with an A-side as excellent as "Diamond Hoo Ha Man" could a track this awesome be relegated to B-side status. [Official site]

3. El Guincho, "Antillas"
This Spanish laptop enthusiast's loop-based instrumentals sound like leftover tape from the sessions for Paul Simon's Graceland, which we wholeheartedly approve of. [Stereogum]

4. N.E.R.D., "Everyone Nose"
The Neptunes' rock band's last album, 2004's Fly or Die, was an underappreciated gem, but we don't suspect this first single from their forthcoming new record is in any danger of being underrated, to put it politely. [Nah Right]

5. Dizzee Rascal feat. Calvin Harris, "Dance for Me"
Okay! [YouSendIt via First Up!]
