In the summer, it is almost without fail that there is a blockbuster Will Smith movie.

  • 2008 – Hancock
  • 2004 – I, Robot
  • 2003 – Bad Boys II
  • 2002 – Men In Black II
  • 1999 – Wild Wild West
  • 1997 – Men In Black
  • 1996 – Independence Day

Ok, I guess it is with fail. He missed a few years here and there. Well, another trend I’ve been noticing is that each summer there is a blockbuster pop duet. There was 2003’s Bonnie & Clyde by Jay-Z and Beyoncé:

I never realized it contained the same sample as Toni Braxton’s Me & My Boyfriend. No wonder it was so catchy.

In 2006, there was Nelly Furtado and Timbaland discussing Promiscuous (Girl). Another classic for me, and one of the best summer songs. Last year, there was Kanye West ft Estelle’s American Boy.

This year belongs to Ciara and Justin Timberlake’s Love, Sex, Magic.

Honourable mention goes to James Morrison and Nelly Furtado’s Broken Strings; but it just isn’t as awesome a song as Ciara and JLake’s.
