Good Day — Lil Yachty feat. Skippa Da Flippa (Lil’ Boat) Is Lil’ Yachty the only one who still cares about cover art? Seriously, I’m not just quoting that line from Chance the Rapper’s ‘Mixtape’ song with Yachty and Young Thug. Seriously, this dude does care a lot about cover art, and it shows in the work he puts out. He’s…

Ol’ English — The Game (Doctor’s Advocate) Back in my day, even though I’m probably not qualified to say that yet (maybe on some things), shit was different. It feels like not everyone today remembers that in the mid-2000s, we didn’t have such a constant influx of new music. Today, it feels like we’ve got 8923787 new…

Something You Should Know — Mac Dre (Al Boo Boo) If you’ve read my previous posts then you know I stumbled upon Mac Dre by accident. What a glorious accident it was. …

Sag Your Pants — Afroman (Afroholic…The Even Better Times) I bet most of you are confused because you didn’t know there are Afroman songs besides “Because I Got High” or “Colt 45.” It’s okay, I forgive you.

So Fresh, So Clean — Outkast (Stankonia) A couple of reference explanations before we get into it. Martha → that’s my mom. When you read her name in your head do it in English and really put a lot of emphasis on the TH because that’s how my friends do it. Fulanito de tal → Way to…

Trina Moe — DMX (The Great Depression) This song has a special place in my heart because it’s a version of DMX I don’t think many people know exists. …

Time — Riff Raff (Neon Icon) Before even listening to a Riff Raff song I decided he was a horrible rapper because I didn’t like the way he looked. I was very upset with this man who just seemed like he was trying to appropriate rap culture to make some money. It didn’t help that I…

Ink My Whole Body — Wiz Khalifa (Star Power) You know Wiz Khalifa as the guy with purple dreds who had a kid with Amber Rose and raps about smoking weed. If that’s all you know, then you’re not that far off. …

Walk Thru — Rich Homie Quan feat. Problem (I Promise I Will Never Stop Going In) When I first moved to Miami I drove an old used car that didn’t have a CD player. There were only two radio stations I listened to, 99.1 and 103.5. They’re hip-hop stations, and that’s awesome because there were never any straight hip-hop stations in Puerto Rico. The only problem…
