Rootbeer Thoughts: Why It’s Good The “Golden Age” is Dead

October 27, 2011
By

Time and time again the 90s dickriders complain about today’s rap. How there’s no more art to it or how it’s just about the money now. The problem is that these people are stuck in a time that can’t and won’t ever be accessible again. Not because there aren’t any talented artists out there...

Rootbeer Thoughts: Smh Jeezy….

Late Pass: Meek Mill – Dreamchasers

I checked this when it first dropped, don’t even think I made it all the way through cause it was so long. But I finally gave it a thorough listen and this tape really is pure crack! There is not a single skippable joint on this, Meek really proved himself with street anthems, brilliant...

Quick Darts: Wu-Tang Clan – Diesel

October 7, 2011
By

While there are countless underrated gems from the Wu, from the generals themselves to the numerous affiliates, this joint right here is easily one of the best in their whole catalog. Everyone comes correct: Meth delivers that fluid flow, RZA and Huey trade epic bars back and forth, Rae takes his slang to a...
