For over twelve years Three 6 Mafia has been a prominent and stand-still force in the hip-hop industry. With leaders DJ Paul and Juicy J leading the way the entire time the Memphis natives have seen their stock rise, fall, rise, and fall again. In the midst of one of their most lackluster periods both...

It seems like it took the world forever to figure out just who Mike Jones was and as quick as they found out they forgot. Of course waiting nearly half a decade to follow up a double platinum debut album is a great reason to be forgotten. Somehow Mike Jones managed to muster up enough...

Not too many rappers in the game right now can claim to have put in as much work as Pastor Troy has over the past decade. With over twenty solo, group, compilation, and unofficial (not mixtapes) albums combined in that time frame Troy has undoubtedly never let his flame blow out. Of course he isn’t...

Almost ten years ago exactly a great white hope emerged within the hip-hop world and has since gone on to become declared one of the top five MCs dead or alive. As you may have already noticed the past decade has brought about much change in the world and now we find ourselves embracing the idea of a great...

For an artist whose only been in the game for almost three years now Rick Ross has managed to stir up more shit than Terrell Owens did when he was with the Eagles. After a stellar performance on his debut album Port Of Miami Ross returned with last year’s lackluster Trilla. Now with a full calendar’s worth of time...

Though the years have made Jadakiss a living legend on the streets and within the industry the solo and group albums that have placed him in that position have been few and far between. The three-man group he’s been a part of since the height of the Bad Boys days has released all of two albums since 1998 and...

It seems like just yesterday when Lil Bow Wow first emerged onto the scene and stole the hearts of pre-teenage girls from coast-to-coast some nine years ago. After a string of successful albums and singles Bow Wow’s last effort, 2006’s The Price Of Fame, is most noted for featuring the original, non-single, version of R. Kelly’s smash hit “I’m...

Last year around this exact same time Flo Rida was the hottest and newest thing in the entire music industry. After 365 days he has accomplished a feat that not too many other new rappers can in being as relevant, if not, more relevant than he was when he first blew up. His second effort, R.O.O.T.S. (Route Of Overcoming...

The UGK saga may be one of the most triumphant yet tragic tales ever told in hip-hop history. While the duo from Port Arthur, TX has exceeded just about all expectations anyone ever had for them they have also been forced to live and die through some of the worst scenarios. In the beginning Bun B and Pimp C’s...

During the early parts of his career T-Rock was once considered one of the most promising newcomers to the notorious Hypnotize Camp Posse. After a very short stint with the HCP T-Rock went AWOL for a considerable amount of time before resurfacing with the album he was initially set to release with DJ Paul and Juicy J, Rock Solid/4:20....

For some odd reason or another I’ve completely missed the entire MF Doom movement of this decade. From what I’ve heard this Doom guy has built a pretty impressive track record with all of his previous efforts as well as all of his aliases. His latest effort Born Like This is supposed to be his self proclaimed best effort...

Someone has obviously forgotten to send Hell Rell the memo that Dipset is indeed broken up and thus his third national release finds him pledging allegiance to the set once again. After his two previous critically acclaimed efforts For The Hell Of It and Black Mask Black Gloves Hell Rell is obviously taking no time to figure out the...
