Playlist - Round 2
| Song | Artist | Album |
| Hardcore Gentlemen Theme | Mellon Colin | TBA |
| BYAHHHH!!! | ||
| So What | Miles Davis | Kind Of Blue |
| Perhaps the greatest be-bop album of all time. | ||
| Freddie Free Loader | Miles Davis | Kind Of Blue |
| There's nothing iller than a tight jazz solo. | ||
| Deadly Medley | Black Milk | Album Of The Year |
| The rhymes are as tight as the beats on this album. A must-listen for sure. | ||
| Glow | eLZhi | The Leftovers Unmixedtape |
| People count Detroit out, but few cities aside from NYC have a better hip hop scene. | ||
| Mars [Remix] (ft. Blu) | Dela | Atmosphere Airlines |
| Blu is one of the greatest young emcees out there. Coming out of LA and keeping it authentic. | ||
| The Ecology | Fashawn | Boy Meets World |
| Another emcee coming out of LA, affiliated with Blu. Fashawn's the Truth, made an interesting tribute to Illmatic recently. | ||
| Nuclear Hip Hop | Mood | Doom |
| A lesser-known 90s release that I stumbled upon in my library. Thanks to Jimbo for this dig. | ||
| Fudge Pudge | Organized Konfusion | Organized Konfusion |
| The evolution of the hip hop emcee's flow reached a high-water mark in the early 90s in my opinion. | ||
| Fast Life (Norfside Mix) | Kool G Rap & Nas | Fast Life (Norfside Mix) / Thuggin' It Up (Remix) 12" Single |
| MC royalty. This beat's ephemeral as well - Norfside did it right. | ||
| The Bridge Is Over | Boogie Down Productions | Criminal Minded |
| "Manhattan keeps on makin' it, Bronx keeps on creatin' it, Queens keeps on fakin' it." R.I.P. Scott LaRock. | ||
| Jussumen [Pete Rock Remix] | Das EFX | DAS EFX: Riggidy Remixes & Rarities |
| Late 80s / Early 90s are my favorite era of hip hop by far. The music industry hadn't caused the schism between underground and commercial yet... | ||
| Polluted Skyline | Brothaz Bent | Up From The Desert |
| AKA Arch Druids, a dope hip hop collective coming out of LA. | ||
| Wrong Side Of Da Tracks | Artifacts | Between A Rock And A Hard Place |
| One of the best graf songs ever made. | ||
| Slang Blade | Binary Star | Masters Of The Universe |
| It's been over a decade hiatus since their last release... One Be Lo & Senim Silla let's go!! | ||
| Mmmhmmm (ft. Thundercat) | Flying Lotus | Cosmogramma |
| FlyLo's ability to manipulate the high-hat is truly revolutionary. | ||
| Best That I Can (ft. Mark Fury & Colombeyond) | Blacastan | Blac Sabbath |
| This vocal sample is the creez. | ||
| Roc Marciano Joint (ft. Roc Marciano) | Das Racist | Sit Down, Man |
| Wanted to highlight a couple of my favorite new emcees from 2010. | ||
| Rock N' Roll | Mos Def | Black On Both Sides |
| Inarguably Mos Def's greatest solo effort. A true hip hop Renaissance man. | ||
| Lost in the Supermarket | The Clash | London Calling |
| No doubt one of the most important albums of the 1970s. | ||
| Bungle in the Jungle | Jethro Tull | Original Masters |
| Real men play flute. | ||
| Janglin | Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros | From Below |
| Ever since corporate America got their hands on this one it should be called "Jingling." | ||
| Lust For Life | Girls | Album |
| Heard about this group before, but just picked up the LP today in the studio. | ||
| Ten Cent Pistol | The Black Keys | Brothers |
| This album blew away 95% of all other releases this year, and 98% of all rock releases. I know it's not fair; TBK are just better than you. | ||
| Blue Blood Blues | The Dead Weather | Sea Of Cowards |
| The second TDW LP in as many years. Perhaps not as good as the first, but anything Jack White touches is solid at the very least. | ||
| Back Door Man | Howlin' Wolf | The Genuine Article |
| Howlin' Wolf may have literally been the physical manifestation of the blues in voice, figure, and lifestyle. | ||
| Grinnin' In Your Face | Son House | Father of the Delta Blues: The Complete 1965 Sessions |
| Jack White cited this track as being the most influential on him as a musician. Just a clap & a voice. That's all you need. | ||
