The British singer-songwriter, rapper and producer has been churning out hits for Cheryl Cole, Kesha, Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake, among others. Now with two successful albums -- 'Departure' and 'Rokstarr,' Cruz is gaining traction in the U.S., specifically his remixed version 'Break Your Heart' featuring Ludacris as well as his upcoming single 'Dirty Picture' featuring Kesha. Check out Cruz's list below, covering notable singles by Coldplay and Michael Jackson, as well as newer hits by Kesha and Rihanna.

He taught me how to wear black leather in that video.

The melody and lyrics are genius; true Coldplay.

This song is unbelievably infectious and I have overplayed it.

This song is the new age of electronic pop.

This song is a perfect slice of pop heaven.

This song is a good representation of my pop sensibility.
