2008: A Great Year for Hip-Hop
 

this year has been solid as far as hip-hop releases go. we've got Flo Rida, Weezy, David Banner, DJ Khaled, Rick Ross, TI, Young Jeezy, and Webbie all putting out great records

what are you guys' favorite releases of this year, so far? mine is definitely Webbie's Savage Life 2. the beats are solid, the rhymes and guests are tight, and the production is perfect

what are your favorite singles? Mine is probably "Out Here Grinding," and I can't wait for Ace Hood's debut, which is dropping soon

The only Hip Hop album I've picked up this year is Invincible's ShapeShifters. I love her delivery on this album. The production is alright but it's her flow that really makes this stand out. This album was on heavy rotation for a few weeks. Sledgehammer!, ShapeShifters and Locusts are my favorite tracks off the album.

Killer by Tech N9ne
When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That **** Gold by Atmosphere
The Balancing Act by Sadistik


My Three Fav. Hip Hop Albums of 08, so far.

never heard of her, but i'll have to look into it. i must admit i'm behind this year as far as underground hip-hop goes, but i'll give it a shot

Subtle \m/

Here's the link to her My Space. Has a few songs off the album.

Carter 3
The Recession

really really looking fwd to Jay and Kanye's offerings.

^ really?

I'm not knocking your decisions, but there were MUCH better releases this year.

I can't stand Lil Wayne. From what I've heard of his songs, all he talks about is how great he is. Overrated.

I couldn't agree more.
