Brehs, Let's Revisit 2004.

[A.V.]

I think '04 is the last year where we really got consistent, solid releases in Hip-Hop. I mean name another year in the past 10 years where there's been 10+ SOLID Hip-Hop albums released. I bet you none of them fukkin wit '04. Call it revisionist, nostalgic, but it's the damn truth.

Sad cuz this is around the time snap music and fukking ringtone rap were startin to take hold, but it's like Hip-Hop made it's final stand before going totally commercial/capitalistic. You still had a decent balance between Industry/Underground cats gettin shine.

Everyone thought Papoose, Saigon, Grafh, etc. were contenders, the SMACK & countless other DVDs were everywhere, nikkas wasn't dressing like complete fakkits, and production was more than just a fukking 808 & a double time stuttering hi-hat with some bass, flipped 20 different ways throughout the album...

Salute to '04, if you nikkas ain't knowin.​
