The Renaissance Q-Tip (Explicit Lyrics) I could go in depth about how each and every track is just perfection and how Q-Tip is just like soul for your ears with his flow and song, but anyone who knows of him and has followed his work from the Brilliant ATCQ to his previous solo release 'Amplified' will know that he is a force to be reckoned with and will not let you down - and with this new release he most definitely hasn't!! I have...    Read More >>

Nas Nas Let me sum this album up for you: it is the best album that's been released in the 21st Century so far. I'm not kidding! Nas has always shown glimpses of greatness but he's not managed to be really consistent since his excellent debut Illmatic. He's only had 'moments' of greatness. But then came Hip Hop Is Dead which was a very very strong CD. I feared Nasty Nas would fall off again and retreat...    Read More >>

Power To The People And The Beats - Public Enemy's Greatest Hits Public Enemy This really is a great greatest hits album, the old schoolstyle of rapping used here is really effective to the great beats. Frequent use of the words ' sucker mc' shows the old skool style. This is better than a lot of the new skool playas and hip hop legends like these will help save the game. Tracks like public enemy no.1 show chucky d's great style of rapping, and you really have...    Read More >>

Liquid Swords Genius/GZA best wu-tang album ever, its even better than the clans debut album 36 chambers, rza was on top of his game when he produced this hip-hop masterpiece and the gza's voice and rappin style suits the clans music more than any of the other members    Read More >>

Shock Value Timbaland I loved all but one track on this CD...it is very rare to find an album with so many great songs. While they all share a similar tie to the techno mixed with hip-hop, the CD still boasts a vast array of different styles: fast, slow, heavy bass, masculine, feminine...I just can't say enough good things about the songs. I think the people who will enjoy this CD the most are the ones who...    Read More >>

It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back Public Enemy It Takes a Nation of Millions was the sign that hip-hop had exploded like a grenade. A rap record as abrasive, hard-core and eloquent as a Winston Churchill speech, the 1988 disc is one classic track after another: tense, multilayered, harmonically wild music. Chuck D declaims like a master preacher with foil Flavor Flav's voice darting around his. They have got the desperate energy of people...    Read More >>

Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) Wu-Tang Clan This debut revolutionized hip-hop (and launched half a dozen solo careers), as much for The RZA's raw barrage of off-kilter, off-key loops and sound effects as for its elliptically violent lyrics. Martial arts--at least as they appear in kung fu movies--are the Wu-Tang Clan's favorite metaphor, but they're also the organizing principle of the group, a crowd of eight rappers, each with his own way-out-there...    Read More >>

Graduation Kanye West What do you do after you’ve reinvented a genre? Well, going on Graduation, the third full-length artist album by hip-hop’s most famous Noughties auteur Kanye West, you hunt across the pop landscape for fresh sounds ripe for plunder. Most obviously, there’s Daft Punk, whose track "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" forms the vocoder foundation to "Stronger". But Kanye’s learnt more from...    Read More >>

T.O.S. (Terminate On Sight) G-Unit i like this album alot all the songs apart from 1 or 2 have really good beats, there is no songs that are really amazing but im hooked on the album itself. for all the bad talk about the unit and fifty this album is the beggining of the new gangsta rap in my opinion. ignore that kanye pop rap stuff. this is heavy rap, more for people who like a big beat and powerful rap, but if you prefer more of a...    Read More >>
