Stoney Jackson by SAS should be on any list as well, I guess.
Pretty much EVERYTHING new this year was garbage, to me , it was really the year of the reissue with Godfather Don’s Hydra material & The deluxe version of Pete Rock & CL Smooth’s “Mecca & The Soul Brother” leading the way.
YO ROBBIE, I WAS WAITING FOR SOME SUBJECT LIKE THAT FROM YOU, WELL APPOINTED…
BEST SONG OF 2010: SCRAM JONES – FORK IN THE ROAD
… BUT THERE WAS QUITE A FEW GOOD NUGGETS & A LOTTA BAD TOO (WULDNT BE ABLE TO COUNT)

Oh yeah Cassidy – Face to Face was a fucking good record. I dont know about the album.
i think montezuma is from ’09
i think 199now was a pretty boring lp except for mad ammo, i’d rather listen to kanye’s
damu is a fucking monster
jake one and freeway are the best duo in hip hop right now
i’m sorry to say the west didn’t offer much this year except e-40’s double lp and some evidence sneak previews

Nobody named Dr.oop – Grateful Dread? …
That album and Lewis Parker&John Robinson album = Two best LP’s this year …
who the fuck is kid cudi? thats some grown ass rap music sir.
http://www.divshare.com/download/13477599-808
… the best of 2010 y’all need to know is on this compilation w/ precison, no mix but fell like tho!
@ BR man, it’s like thinkin Ghostface don’t make great hip hop no more, that’d be foolish, people grow up & tastes change within the artform. As for the shape of the music, its sometimes more important to listen to its content first… I let you judge, but enjoy that selection ta pimp ya ride or at your office…
Yea 2010 sucked. So i went back to 92…….. I was bumping grand daddy i u. Found out where big l & jay-z got there style from. So like it or not smooth assasin. Im disapointed with the way they did the pimp c album. Redman should get mixtape of the year
album of the year goes to celph title & buckwild 1990 now that roc marciano shit was boring and kind of weak to me but thats my opinon.
“that roc marciano shit was boring and kind of weak”
AMEN TO THAT BROTHA..THE AMOUNT OF DICK-RIDIN I HEARD ABOUT ROC MARC AND THAT MARCBERG ALBUM IS INCREDIBLE
…AND I DO LIKE MY FAIR SHARE OF ‘IGNORANT RAP’ BUT DONE THE RIGHT WAY (G RAP, SEAN P, MOP, MOBB DEEP, ETC.)
Redman should get mixtape of the year
Comment by fogcity-slim
–> AIGHT YA RITE, DAT REDMAN WAS TRULY DOPE. NOT EXPECTED AT ALL W/ ALL THE BULLSHIT HE BEEN SERVIN US LATELY… PANCAXES & SYRUP WAS GOOD, WAS HOOD!
