Today's music isn't exactly the best lyrically. While there are a lot of catchy beats, the music doesn't compare to music that was released earlier in the 2000s. Everyone can jam out to a good '08 tune, and the songs are loaded with great lyrics and snappy remarks. Billboard's Hot 100 Chart named these songs the best of 2008, but what they didn't note was the bangin' lyrical gems hidden in them. Here is the Billboard Top 100 song from 2008 and all of the best lyrics perfect for a throwback Instagram caption:
