Where as in the past he could be considered America’s favorite trap rapper, that title could arguably now be awarded to either Rick Ross & Gucci Mane (Coincidentally two rappers Jeezy has beefed with in the past). Adding to that was the fact that Thug [...] |

| I have an odd relationship with Drake’s music. Comeback Season is not only the Drake album that still gets the most spins from me, but it’s one of my favorite mixtapes period. So Far Gone was our choice for mixtape of the year in ’09 and while I thought it was good, it wasn’t as [...] |

| With a EP title that basically writes itself, Danny Brown & Black Milk join forces for Black & Brown EP. With Brown just coming off the recent release of his well received street album XXX and Black Milk collaborating with two other rappers for the Random Axe album earlier this year,it seems like as good as [...] |

| I don’t think there is another rapper in the game that has the kind of success that Gucci Mane has had while staying STREET. Radric Davis aka Gucci Mane has been a draw in Hip-Hop for the last 2 years and no one knows why or how, but Gucci Mane has been all over the [...] |

| If you thought female MC’s not named Minaj were dead, you better not tell Rah Digga. Yea, her last album Dirty Harriet may have been 10 years ago but don’t let that fool you; Digga’s flow is still as rowdy as ever. For her sophomore set, not only did she craft one of the cutest and [...] |
