15 songs from the rich tapestry of Rap history which have been up in my ears like malleus bones in 2024. Most of them are new-to-me discoveries, but a couple of them are old favourites which have snuck back into regular rotation. Shout out to Step Wun for recently hippin' me to that AZ song.
Run Up Get Dun Up sounds way ahead of its time.
ReplyDeleteThat G.Dep tune off the original version of Child of the Ghetto?
Nah, pre-Bad Boy era. That album would have been way better if it had included all those 1996 to 1998 songs.
DeleteWill give this a spin tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteYou'll definitely hate a few songs on here 😆

Was expecting him to be AZN with that name. First joint is good; second joint is a played out beatjack now IMHO.
