#1 - Big K.R.I.T. - ReturnOf4Eva
Hip-hop fans, more than the fans of any other genre, are a cynical bunch. In 1979 the original emcees were convinced that simply recording rhymes would kill their culture, in 1989 the emergence of Vanilla Ice was surely the... Read Full Review

#2 - K. Sparks - Tomorrow Today
The last time I wrote about K. Sparks, way back in 2009 (did they even have the internet back then?), the prolifically productive NYC emcee was my number one pick for “wait, why isn’t he signed?” status after dropping... Read Full Review

#3 - Wax - Scrublife
For a music that prizes realness above all else, hip-hop has become an exercise in surrealism. Salvador Dali’s got nothing on the rap game. Rappers who’ve never recorded outside their bedrooms rhyme about flying on G6... Read Full Review

#8 - Yonas - The Proven Theory
Buy Yonas “Proven Theory” on DJ Booth You know what people who read hip-hop album reviews love talking about? The definitions of scientific terms. (Hey, I’m here to give the people what they want). For... Read Full Review

#9 - Raekwon - Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang
I just spent the last hour searching for the perfect analogy to describe Raekwon’s place in the game, and I failed. There just may not be another rapper quite like him. For 16 or 18 years, depending on whether you start... Read Full Review

#10 - DJ Quik - The Book of David
It’s not particularly difficult to drop a hit single. The right beat, the right hook, the right timing and suddenly cell phones nationwide are ringing with the sound of your hit. The list of rappers who had the spotlight... Read Full Review
