What are some new R&B and hip hop songs?

Good Hip Hop songs that sound like they are running on a higher RPM?

  • What are some hip hop songs/albums/artists that use the sped-up RPM voices (like the Chimpmunk's sound) and/or horn samples well in their songs? I'm getting back on the running/exercise bandwagon after winter, and I really like hip hop songs to run to. I really, really like songs that use the sped-up voice samples (that may sound somewhat like the Chipmunks) as part of the song or chorus. Also, I love when horn samples are used well, such as what RJD2 has done on some songs. Old or new songs are both welcome! What are the most excellent hip hop songs you know that incorporate Chipmunk-style voices and/or horns well? (I'll try to think of a sample of what I mean with the Chipmunk-voice thing if people don't understand.) Thanks in avance!

Nthing the Kanye recommendation. Back in his producer days, those chipmunk-soul samples were a big part of his thing.
