#RushHourRap – Kanye West Pt. 2

In what many described as the first ever crowdsourced album because of Kanye’s multiple tweaks to the album AFTER it had already been released, 2016’s The Life of Pablo is another hit in Yeezy’s catalogue. It was also the first album ever to go Platinum entirely from streams. As most of his recent albums have been, they definitely take a couple listens through to understand, but as he did with 808s and Heartbreak, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, and Yeezus, Kanye is ahead of the game — wacky song titles and all.

#RushHourRap – Eminem – My Name Is

If you’re like me and have to sit through soul crushing traffic every morning and every evening then you know the need for anything to keep your mind off the logjam. Personally, I like to blast rap as loud as possible as early as possible, introducing #RushHourRap. What better way to kick it off than with the Eminem classic “My Name Is”

Especially if anyones recently watched the HBO doc “The Defiant Ones” about Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine, where Dre explains how this track was created almost instantly after walking into the studio with Em. MUST watch for any music fan.

So this happened last night.

Just some powerful, powerful shit from K.Dot. When you can get your large audience congregation to a cappella rap your semi-free verse song about being true to yourself and the world, you might be the greatest rapper alive.
