The DJ Booth… We never miss a beat…
| Reader's Pick | Staff Pick | Joe Budden "Padded Room" | Blitz The Ambassador "Stereotype" |
 |
 |
This year, Jersey emcee Joe Budden broke free of Def Jam, the label that had repeatedly foiled his attempts to release a sophomore album, and settled with indie Amalgam Digital to finally get a new project into listeners' hands. Padded Room was dark, lyrically-focused and more than a little crazy – in other words, exactly what Budden fans had been waiting for! Runner Up: KRS-One & Buckshot "Survival Skills" |
In addition to Best Hip-Hop Album from an independent artist I'd like to award Blitz the completely unofficial and completely uncoveted Most Slept on Album of the Year award. An album that combined dope, meaningful and memorable flows with some of the best live instrument production we've heard since The Roots glory days, Stereotype was the kind of album we'll still be playing in a year, in five years, in a decade. Stop sleeping. |

I wasn't impressed by either of these albums...Max B Public Domain 6 was better!

Stereotype has that feeling which cult classics (at least) are made of. The underground will regard this as one of their "classics" before too long...

"Stereotype" was amazing, honestly. Most slept on of the year is something he deserves. Was Ali's "Us" here? Lol, if so, that's what I voted for.
