ILLIEN
It's a long list, but I do it in hopes of turning some on to music they may have slept on, or forgotten, and to encourage others to share their favs of 2014. So in no particular order.....
Freddie Gibbs & Madlib- Pinata - If u like boom bap and gangsta rhymes, ur gonna love this.
Prhyme-Prhyme - Flawless
Homeboy Sandman- Hallways -Possibly his bets work to date. Excellent album.
Diamond D-Diam Piece - many didn't care for it, I loved it.
Barrel Brothers(Skyzoo & Torae) - Barell Brothers- Don't know which goes harder, the beats or the rhymes.
Slaughterhouse - House Rules- I know it's a mixtape....but it's soo good.
Isaih Rashad - Cilvia Demo- Slept on this, until I gave it a 2nd chance. Best TDE release this year imo.
Choosey- Left Field- Criminally slept on. Nice spit over bap.
Open Mike Eagle- Dark Comedy - Very diverse. Superb lyrical content.
D' Angelo - Black Messiah- Words don't do it justice.
Rapsody- Beauty and the Beast- Very slept on.
Ghostface Killah - 36 Seasons- A concept album is hard to pull off, but Ghost did it masterfully.
BJ the Chicago Kid- The MAFE Project- It's only a matter of time before this guy blows up...very talented singer.
Rick Ross-Mastermind- Stop it. It's a good album
Cozz- Cozz & Effect - The next big thing.
Diamond District - March On Washington Redux- I don't recall the original being this live, but the A list bap producers remixes make this filthy.
Black Milk- If There's a Hell Below- What u expect from Milk....sickness.
Planet Asia & TzariZM- Via Satellite- Slept on filthy boom bap.
Apollo Brown- Thirty-Eight- The only instrumental album on the list.....and for good reason.
