Freebie Friday: Oh Word’s Young Rap Mixtape

Friday, September 19th, 2008

Sacha O at Oh Word laments that 2008 has been “a bad year for hip-hop full lengths.” Rather than lunge into a 4500-word rant about it, he decided to do something about it because, well, talk is cheap. Sacha has strewn together a compilation of dope rap music by mostly new MCs, including Cool Kids, Mickey Factz, Jay Electronica, and Wale.

Friday, August 15th, 2008

A friend of mine who happens to be a respected journalist surprised me 3 days ago when he asked: “Dude, do you think Termanology is worth a shit?” “Are you serious?” I replied, “He’s one of the freshest “new” rappers around.” My boy wrote back to say that he wasn’t a big fan.

Dude hit me up again later that evening with a different opinion. “I would like to change my aforementioned opinion of Termanology,” he said. “He’s dope.” (more…)
