Juan Atkins - Metroplex 20 Years 1985-2005 - the Best of the Godfather of Detroit Techno. This has everything on it! Clear, Cosmic Car, Technicolor, and the list goes on......
The Wizard - this is for everybody who grew up in the D listening to the Electrifying Mojo & the Wizard on FM 98 WJLB. Classic mixes!!!!
Detroit (better yet Flint, MI) Hip Hop
Jon Connor - Season 2 & The Blue Album - Jon Connor brings an element that is missing from a lot of today's Hip Hop music....substance. Not to mention that he kills every track he snatched off the Blueprint 1,2, & 3 albums. Favorite Season 2 tracks - Someone like me, Saginaw City Chronicles, True Colors, No Apologies. Favorite Blue Album tracks - Takeover, Thank You, Hova Mojo, Show You How
More Hip Hop
Rick Ross - Rich Forever - Very nice teaser to God Forgives, I Don't. Favorite tracks - F*ck Em, Rich Forever, Triple Beam Dreams, MMG the World is Ours, Stay Schemin
Blu & Madlib - UCLA - This came outta nowhere, which is very typical for Blu and that album cover.....priceless. Favorite tracks - Funky Cowboy meets Funky Drummer, Burgandy Whips, What U C, We Got it
Saigon - Warning Shots 3 - Starts off very weak, but it has its moments. Favorite tracks - Say Yes, Women are the new Dogs, Kinky, Another man down
KRS One - BDP Album - This album reaffirms why KRS remains in my top 5 emcees of all time. Besides remaining lyrically sharp, I actually learned something (2012) while listening to the album. Favorite tracks - Tote Gunz, The Solution, I Do this For You, 2012
Sundown & Chuuwee - The Adventures of the Millenium Falcon - Chuuwee didn't waste anytime to jumping on this next project. I read that he and Sundown recorded this together in the same studio, as opposed to sending tracks over e-mail. Regardless, it doesn't change the fact that Chuuwee outshines Sundown and the rest of the crew on every track. He's on a whole nother level. Favorite tracks - I remember, Calm Down, You Are
Erick Sermon - Breath of Fresh Air
Vibes & Stuff
Glenn Underground - Forgotten Art - Incredible House music
Tortured Soul - Did you Miss Me? & Introducing Tortured Soul - I saw these guys perform last summer. Been hooked on their music every since. Can't wait for the next album
