Born To Audiomack: 2007 Bonus Beats

Uncle Murda on Noz's 100 best Rap songs of 2007 list eh? 2020 keeps throwing up all sorts of surprises. Top bloggin', but missing twelve Martorialist classics by twelve different artists who didn't make the list. So, here they are in an easily-digestible Audiomack playlist. No surprises here for regular TM™ readers, just twelve songs I'll never resist an opportunity to Stan for.

1. Camp Lo - Black Hollywood
2. Rock D The Legend ft. Big Boi - DDT
3. ByrdGang - Anniversary
4. Tha Camp - 1 Rubber
5. Grand Puba - Let's Go
6. Smooth B - I Want My Money Back
7. Jackie Chain - Waffle House Pimpin'
8. G-Side ft. Marcellus - Feel Like I Look
9. AZ - Doin' That (Memphis Sessions mix)
10. Mic Terror - Juke Them Hoes
11. Blaq Poet - Don't Give A Fucc
12. A-Wax - Gatez



Favourite find on Noz's list has gotta be Jhi-Ali's My Way. Very unique vibe - like if Bizzy Bone's little cousin from Alabama made his own version of Devin's Do What You Want To Do. Not only had I never heard the song before, I'd never realised Jhi-Ali was a bloke until the video later popped up in my YouTube recommendations. Cinderfella Jhi-Ali - 2020 truly is full of all sorts of surprises innit?

Jhi-Ali - My Way
(From My Way mixtape; 2007)




**EDIT** Just lookin' for a no-DJ MP3 of My Way and it turns out the song first dropped on this Slow Motion Soundz compilation in 2005. There's another solo Jhi-Ali solo track on there called On The Run that I'm curious to hear - anybody got it? It ain't on YouTube or Ali's Soundcloud.

  5. Anon, that's more of a compilation thing, though. As is the Rob & Stone Caught On Tape album which has a buncha good songs.

    Jmil, Rey put Jackie's first mixtape Jackie's first mixtape on YouTube a few years back. Holla if you want a download and I'll up it when I'm on my laptop tomorrow.

    I've never heard Smigg Dirtee's Tonite Show but this Regular Day tune is cool.

  8. Noz's list is an interesting one indeed only there would you Find Aesop Rock & Nicki Minaj on the same list.

  17. Nice. Still blocked for me.

  18. Just thought of another personal fave which ain't on teh Noz list: G-Side's I Feel Like I Look. Probably my fave song of theirs tbh.

    Gonna add it to my playlist.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Twista & Skateboard P - Give It Up

  20. In regards to G Side and Jackie Chain, Have you ever done a Best of Huntsville/Block Beattaz playlist?

    ReplyDelete
  21. Drew, fair play - you love that song like I love Juke Them Hoes 😄

    Jmil, I only listened to Jackie, GMane and G-Side. I'm pretty clueless about what songs would make up the best from the rest of the Huntsville scene.

    I'll tell you one of my absolute fave Huntsville songs, tho - No One Duz It Betta by GMane & G-Side.

    ReplyDelete
  22. all this alabama talk reminded me of KDs polo and nike, burn one was killing it out there.

    ReplyDelete
  23. So, I've changed my mind - G-Side's best song is #actually My Aura with PT on the hook.

    Also notable here since it references Jhi-Ali's My Way.

  25. A couple additions:

    Some vintage 2007 DJ Burn Ones vibez: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08VltU5QJrs

    An album I listened to a lot when it came out, kinda of a singular style, old-school NY revisited and revamped or something: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evDdMc3BZ6k

    The Dogg Pound's Dogg Chit album also had some good songs on there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXgMlbKjKs0

    ReplyDelete
  26. I should probably check that Dogg Chit album.

  27. Not gonna say it's an essential album but it's very solid. Another good one from there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7MWJIDDoSE
