One of (if not) my favorite movie of all time

The 1985 Hip Hop Classic, Krush Groove ... this episode I tell you all about it!

Jadakiss is no doubt one of the most talented lyricists in Hip Hop history, in my opinion has the greatest catalog of features.

Has he ever dropped what people would consider a timeless classic project/album?

Lets talk about it

For reasons, Nas and Jay-Z will forever be mentioned together ... much like Pac and BIG, this episode we explore all things considered as the album count is near equal , who over the entirety of their run has the better music.

What say you?

Hip Hop music in the 80s , especially after the "Roxanne Wars" when an emcee or group recorded a song it was not uncommon for another to record a response record often dissing the original songmaker, what I will do with this series is highlight some that you may not be aware of.

This episode spotlights the LL Cool J's "Dear Yvette" and the subsequent response records it inspired.

Let me know what you think @encyclopediaHH

What is your criteria for a flawless album?

What constitutes a "skip"?

My Question is can an album with skits and interludes be consider flawless because most times you would skip them?

Lets talk about it

Missy has hits on hits on hits, she appears on greatest female rapper lists, and other hip hop lists, but is she an emcee? Is she a dope rapper? Has she ever dropped a Hip Hop Album?
