    Dead Prez - Information Age

    Album Reviewsposted 4 months ago

    "Information Age" retains positive and thought-provoking messages from dead prez, it's just packaged differently.

  • Uptown XO - Colour de Grey

    Uptown XO - Colour de Grey

    Album Reviewsposted 4 months ago

    XO's lyrics are still Ginsu sharp, and his beliefs remain opinionated--all while AB the Pro holds his own for 13 of the record's 14 cuts.

  • The Underachievers - Indigoism (Mixtape Review)

    The Underachievers - Indigoism (Mixtape Review)

    Album Reviewsposted 4 months ago

    The Underachievers cohesively merge today's turned up sound with that which came from their formerly dominant homeland of Brooklyn.

  • Brotha Lynch Hung - Mannibalector

    Brotha Lynch Hung - Mannibalector

    Album Reviewsposted 4 months ago

    Wit, clever lines and deliciously sinister touches make "Mannibalector" far more accessible than one might have thought possible for a Horrorcore album.

  • Joe Budden - No Love Lost

    Joe Budden - No Love Lost

    Album Reviewsposted 4 months ago

    Joe Budden has earned his loyal following, but the terrible production featured on "No Love Lost" stalls what could have been his most accessible album to date.

  • Red Pill & Hir-O - The Kick

    Red Pill & Hir-O - The Kick

    Album Reviewsposted 4 months ago

    It's hard not to spin "The Kick" and feel the only thing preventing Red Pill and Hir-O from gaining more recognition is time and an overcrowded marketplace.

  • Vado - Slime Flu 3 (Mixtape Review)

    Vado - Slime Flu 3 (Mixtape Review)

    Album Reviewsposted 4 months ago

    "Slime Flu 3" is a solid mixtape. With less repetitive tracks and more gems like "When I Die," there's no reason Vado can't get his spot back, and then some.

  • Pusha T - Wrath Of Caine (Mixtape Review)

    Pusha T - Wrath Of Caine (Mixtape Review)

    Album Reviewsposted 4 months ago

    Even with most of his focus on his upcoming Def Jam album, Pusha T can be brash, humble and introspective about his rock chopping days with the best of them.

  • Oh No - Disrupted Ads

    Oh No - Disrupted Ads

    Album Reviewsposted 4 months ago

    Often a rhyming beast in his own regard, Oh No uses "Disrupted Ads" to showcase the skills of his inner circle.

  • Rockie Fresh - Electric Highway (Mixtape Review)

  • Ace Hood - Starvation II (Mixtape Review)

    Ace Hood - Starvation II (Mixtape Review)

    Album Reviewsposted 5 months ago

    At a hefty 19 tracks, "Starvation II" is another missed opportunity for the 24-year-old rapper to separate himself from the pack.

  • A$AP Rocky - LongLiveA$AP

    A$AP Rocky - LongLiveA$AP

    Album Reviewsposted 5 months ago

    One spin of "LongLiveA$AP," and it's clear why A$AP Rocky didn't break a sweat when the album leaked. Debuts this good just don't come along very often.

  • Busta Rhymes & The Conglomerate - Catastrophic (Mixtape Review)

    Busta Rhymes & The Conglomerate - Catastrophic (Mixtape Review)

    Album Reviewsposted 5 months ago

    Unfortunately, "Catastrophic" comes up short when employing the beats that burned radio this year.
