Section 80 - Kendrick Lamar

Hip hop music and dance both are quite different genre. I love hip hop music and I train people in this dance format.

Freestyle Fellowship - The Promise
Myka 9 - Mykology
Vast Aire - OX 2010 A Street Odyssey
Casual - The Hierophant
Opio & Equipto - Red X Tapes
Shabazz Palaces - Black Up (read a recommendation for it in the 2011 thread)
Sunspot Jonz - Galaxy of Dreams
Cunninlynguists - Oneirology
Das Racist - Relax

Now it's not just Hail Mary Mallon for me this year... ha.

I tried OFWGWTF and Tyler's albums but didn't dig em...

Edit: The bolded are "Can't Miss", absolutely awesome.

Also, Doomtree and Childish Gambino have albums this year.

I'm not really an avid hip hop listener, but I have been listening to quite a bit of Freddie Gibbs and Random Axe lately. Any recs based on those two artists? Anything would be appreciated. Thanks.

Better bet is 2010's Survival Story. That is an amazing record. They really came together for it.
