i'm fully expecting to be blown away by something in the year's second half, but as of this year, nothing has FUCT ME UP yet. i would have to say has-lo's "in case i don't make it", in that case...

Possible new contender, very solid on the first listen for me. Gotta give it a couple more rotations to know for sure.

Clearly not, if you rate that Cru album so highly.

It took me a year to get used to his voice, but there are some jams on there.

Marcberg, Covert Coup, Ellsworth Bumpy Johnson

Honorable mentions to Dr. Lecter and Riches, Royalty, Respect

Aside from mbdtf, I haven't heard much from the hip hop realm that I've liked in the last year or so besides this: <iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ej9-7QncFC4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I was pretty disappointed by Curren$y's full lengths. OF was alright for a minute but I can't really get into that shit.

This forum is full of nothing but redundant threads/topics, and littered with links to mediocre songs. Shit sucks.

Later Phila

I really fail to see how Covert Coup is 'amazing' let alone one of the better releases of '11. Shit's boring and not half the album either of the PT albums is.

A Kid · Post by **A Kid** » Wed Jul 20, 2011 10:02 am

Covert Coup made me anticipate Alchemist again

Combo7 · Post by **Combo7** » Wed Jul 20, 2011 10:09 am

Covert Coup sucked except for "Scottie Pippens."

drizzle · Post by **drizzle** » Wed Jul 20, 2011 10:50 am

covert coupe is great and better than most of weekend at burnies, which is pretty aight in itself

Busta Ry · Post by **Busta Ry** » Wed Jul 20, 2011 2:06 pm

Not exactly exhaustive, but my most listened to hip-hop offerings (off the top of my head) from the last couple of years probably are:

Roc Marciano - Marcberg
Kanye - MBDTF
Homeboy Sandman - The Good Sun
Pharoahe - WAR
The Roots - How I Got Over

Not much on that list right? I know, it concerns me too. And I give virtually everything a spin.
A lot of people mentioned EARL, and it's cool as a concept album and all, but there's just something about listening to a child do gross-out hip hop for 25 minutes (or however long that shit is) that I just can't stomach all that much. I much prefer Frank Oceans shit. Anyways, I guess I like grown man rap, probably because I'm 35 years old.

Thun · Post by **Thun** » Wed Jul 20, 2011 2:47 pm

Kanye is grown man rap? How? Serious question.

Identity crises are very hip-hop and fully grown man.
