Freestyle Fellowship - To Whom It May Concern...
87

Every rapper in the house shut the funk up!

Jazzman will not tolerate fence-building nihilistic actions; Jazzman is the new Superman, and the Freestyle Fellowship is the rap game’s Justice League. These are beautiful rhythmic rhymes over jazz that are poems or, put shortly, it’s Hip-Hop! Uh, I think rap just saved my life today…

Rhys Langston - Pale Black Negative
83

Growing right out of the Project Blowed & Art-Rap tree is Rhys Langston. Calm but heavy raps, another example of using your voice as an instrument. A guy with real poetic ability. Man, I’ve been in a drought; just know this is real, real good.

Eyedea & Abilities - By the Throat
88

To be a poet is to get everything in the mind onto the paper. The diary is the rap album. To put the pen on the paper is to be fully honest to yourself. The rap album is the confession.
I [don't?] like heavy themes — the angst in me is too big to get everything off myself. Eyedea is the struggling; he has broken this barrier. When everything is off your chest, can’t nobody tell you shit! Truthfully, though, there's always something left unsaid; he probably couldn’t ... read more

YOUNGMAN & Celestaphone - A Year of Octobers
82

“My raps fill space like inconsolable crying”

Beware of the judges tonight, who is the YOUNGMAN, Celestaphone, and some kind of ghost thing. They are not holding back! So YOUNGMAN & Celestaphone — the best duo since villain hit Madlib… or Ferreira hit Segal, or whoever you attribute the title of best rapper & producer duo to. Celestaphone beats… them shits funk. YOUNGMAN raps fill up the space to the point where it gets claustrophobic.

Pink Navel & Kenny Segal - How to Capture Playful
68

Video game tropes over Kenny Segal’s — the greatest mind to ever grace this planet — beats. Dot Dev can’t yet complement them perfectly, but the ideas [a work of art] were there. Though I’m not really into video games, I did find some parts of the concept engaging.

MIKE - POMPEII // UTILITY
86

The sound is fresh, the hair is cut, the jig is up.
Alchemist loops threw me out the loop; SURF GANG & Friends were there, standing right like a trampoline, catching me. They mastered the sound, figured it out, and now we have that full trap album playing high up with the big boys in both discographies.
