As you know, I love hip-hop. I have to say, I like 'all types' of hip hop because, just like my preference is the "'backpack' underground & soulful side", my siblings, young and old fall into the; "gangsta - ski mask way", "the song is the dance" and other colorful niches which, exist in hip hop today. Understanding their preference is important to our relationship building.
It was the summer of 2006 and I was back home in NYC, a grad student loving life. I had been listening to some pretty 'hot shit' and, wanted to share it with a mix that could express how amazing it took my mind to all these different worlds. All through that summer, "Hip-hop was being touted as being 'dead', it was at the top of every marketing message. Many quality albums were released that year with no commercial success in the charts. My answer was the "Hip-Hop Ain't Dead mixtapes". I plugged in the new music I heard and those, which brought me to them in this first volume. Some of the artists were unknowns at the time and superstars now. This makes me happy, and with further ado here is Hip-Hop Ain’t Dead Vol.1. Track List, coming soon...
