Song of The Year-Palmolive Featuring Pusha T and Killer Mike produced by Madlib by Freddie Gibbs by Dan-O In 2014 when Madlib and Freddie Gibbs produced Pinata I thought the two were magnificently matched.

Mixtape Review-Drunk Uncle by N.O.R.E.
Mixtape Review-Drunk Uncle by N.O.R.E. by Dan-O I am a pretty passionate hip hop head. I hate pet peeve artists I’ve never met worse than family or friends that have slighted me, but I’ve never really had an opinion on N.O.R.E. Never been able to call him wack because he swings in on tracks andContinue reading “Mixtape Review-Drunk Uncle by N.O.R.E.”

EP review-OTR2SJ by Scotty ATL
EP review-OTR2SJ by Scotty ATL by Dan-O My blood boils when I hear censored music. By the time the 90’s came around I was arguing with my parents for the permission to listen to rap music.
