  1. 30 Hip Hop albums by 30 artists and groups that I loved in the 00's. No order, not more than one album from the same artist to keep it more diverse.
    Kanye West - Late Registration
    Jay Z - The Blueprint
    Common - Be
    Pusha T - My Name Is My Name
    Ja Rule - R.U.L.E.
    Will Smith - Lost & Found
    DJ Jazzy Jeff - The Magnificent
    LL Cool J - The G.O.A.T.
    The Game - Doctor’s Advocate
    Bun B - Trill
    Blu & Exile - Give Me The Flowers While I Can Still Smell Them
    Fashawn - Boy Meets World
    Fat Joe - All Or Nothing
    Cam’ron - Come Home With Me
    Lil Kim - The Naked Truth
    YG - My Krazy Life
    Remy Ma - There’s Something About Remy: Based On A Tru Story
    Snoop Dogg - The Blue Carpet Treatment
    Living Legends - Classic
    Rhymefest - Blue Collar
    Method Man & Redman - Blackout 2
    Ghostface Killah - Ghostdini: Wizard Of Poetry In Emerald City
    J. Cole - Friday Night Lights
    Ice Cube - Laugh Now, Cry Later
    Beastie Boys - To The Five Boroughs
    Maino - If Tomorrow Comes
    The Roots - Game Theory
    Statik Selektah - Spell My Name Right
    EMC - The Show
    Wale - Attention Deficit
    This list is by no means set in stone. I am actually right now thinking I should replace the EMC album with Masta Ace's "A Long Hot Summer", but it does not matter. Also, I do not claim that these are the 30 best albums. These are simply 30 albums that have been important to me in the last 14 years.
  2. I think he's not producing a lot. He does some stuff; his own stuff and stuff for people he likes.. and sometimes he get's asked to do beats I think, for example I believe he has one on the Machine Gun Kelly Album. But he does a lot of touring.. I just don't think he is very active as a producer if you know what I mean. He just does it for himself, his friends and if specifically asked to by a Rapper.. But I don't think he's making millions of beats and sending out beat tapes to labels and stuff like that. He's a DJ first.

  3. Young emcees/rappers simply don't nod their heads to the legends.

    This is simply not true. Just shows that you don't really follow releases of young, new Rappers that have been making waves lately. Fashawn for example released a whole Ode to Illmatic mixtape. J. Cole made a track called "Bun B for President". This is just one out of many examples. There is really no mixtape or album of the new wave of fresh rappers that is without at least a few lines of paying homage.

    As for this track, it's not bad. His flow is still a little bumpy and some of his lyrics seem forced but he has potential. Certainly more than Jaden's Lil Romeo thing.
