Since "Deee-Lite" is on here, and she really was a one hit wonder I'm gonna say that it's gonna be "Groove Is In The Heart". Same can be said for Snow - "Informer", and M|A|R|R|S "Pump Up the Volume"
Now this is where it might get a bit interesting Salt N' Pepa appears, and since their song "Push It" has been released with instrumental versions (Not to mention the fact that you can get the song open source) it wouldn't be surprising that this song would appear. (There's already a bunch of blends of that song’s instrumentals with other song vocals.)
If you're a fan of Tim & Eric's Awesome Show. Great Job! Then you know that Eric Wareheim is into producing music videos for artists. One of which was the tripped out "Pon De Floor" by Major Lazer. What not many people know is that Major Lazer is another artist name for Diplo. The ML version of the song was the same as the one released under his Diplo name, but with vocals added in. So chances of these songs instrumental and vocals appearing is pretty high. However, on another note Diplo and Switch did stuff for M.I.A. and Tiesto, So the chances of the newer song by Tiesto "C'Mon" are moderate. He also did a remix of M.I.A.'s song "Birdflu". (I have learned that he did a remix of a Daft Punk song too so with the amount of songs he has possible there might be a DJ Set by him.)
The only Afrika Bambaataa song that he uses the Soulsonic Force name is the Swordfish theme song "Planet Rock".
Armand Van Helden is mainly known for his hits "My My My" and "Hear My Name" However, his most recent single was with Dizzee Rascal in "Bonkers".
Basement Jaxx and Sam Sparro share the song "Feelings Gone", and with Dizzee Rascal in "Lucky Star", but with how popular "Where's Your Head At?" is it wouldn't surprise me if it shows up.
B.o.B. only has one CD that came out this year, and one song shows up with Bruno Mars in "Nothin' on You" which was a single. (Yes there is an instrumental most likely will have two songs that it's in using the vocals and instrumentals)
Calvin Harris' most recent 2010 remix single was with Kelis, so chances of "4th of July (Fireworks)" is pretty high.
I could honestly go on and on forever, but if I'm right so far then hopefully this songlist will actually be more electronic than hip-hop.
The one I'm really looking forward to is the David Guetta song possibilities. He normally uses the vocals of Chris Willis so there most likely will be a set of nothing but his stuff, but one of the best ones in my opinion would be his "mash-up" single release of Tocadisco's remix of The Egg's single "Walking Away" with the vocals of Chris Willis from David Guetta's 2002 single "Love Don't Let Me Go". So maybe there will be a scratch remix that will be playable for this song?

I'm honestly looking forward to this one more than I did with the first game. I just hope it is more electronic based...
