One of the most underrated regions in hip-hop is the Greater Boston area. Despite loads of underground talent, such as Akrobatik, Termanology, and REKS, the upper Northeast has never gotten its ‘major shine.’ Looking to give The Rap Life a positive spin, and help his metropolitan area get some props, Providence, Rhode Island’s Jon Hope steps up to the ~~plate~~ mic. Accompanied by the classical-mixing of producer Statik Selektah, The Rap Life, while not expected to get very much radio play, should nonetheless be a favorite among fans of conscious rap.

DJ Z DJ Booth Crew Total Ratings: 8068	Rating: DJ Z's Top Rated Songs Statik Selektah has slowly become one of my favorite producers in the game. I need to reach out and see if he only does work with East Coast cats, because there are plenty of MCs from outside the NE who could benefit from this man's production skills. Oh, and Jon is tight too. Follow @DJBooth

Mike Dreams Resident DJ Total Ratings: 2133	Rating: Mike Dreams's Top Rated Songs This is dope! The cuts on here are nice, especially that "Really Doe" sample from Kanye's "We Major". This is dope. This should get a lot of underground radio play, like on Rutgers Radio!

FredRico Resident DJ Total Ratings: 1308	Rating: FredRico's Top Rated Songs I’m pleased to see Statik Selektah getting recognition from DjBooth staff (Z, Blaze…), but I’m still waiting for that review though Nathan! ;) Bring “Spell my name right” to the site before it gets old! I like Hope’s flow and all the quotations in the lyrics. 3.5*
