No Country for Old (Rap) Men: The rap albums I didn’t hate from 2016 so far
This was originally meant to be a best and worst kinda thing but there was no way I was going to listen to Aasop Rock and 2 Chains mp3’s just for some stupid column. I also just realised that I should have included Timeless Truth’s Cold Wave, which I thought was released last year when…

Kool G Rap and DJ Polo – Keep It Swingin’ [Original Version]
This was a tip sent in by Michael, via a Philly Flava forum rip taken from a Crates of JR post – the original version of Kool G Rap and DJ Polo’s ‘Keep It Swingin’,’ a track that wound up as an inferior remix on the Rated XXX compilation in much the same way as…
