I know that some of you question my selections all the time but please understand that I don't take this blog lightly. I listen to every album, mixtape and EP released each month so if some of you vehemently disagree with my pick it's OK but please know that I have heard all of your favorite rappers and the reason they weren't selected is probably because they put out some bullshit that month if they released anything.
I don't like to call artists by name and shit on their projects because I was a young boy out there trying to get on back in the day and know first hand how much blood sweat and tears go into this albums. However, just because someone worked very hard doesn't mean that he or she has any talent at all or they may but simply released some garbage music. It happens to the best of them.
I am really torn by announcing this month's selection for several reasons.
The first reason being my anger at this dude releasing an album with more than 40 tracks on it. You read that right more than 40 tracks and 27 of those aren't so hot in my humble opinion. This must just be some "artistic" shit that went over my head but I found it quite annoying to sift through all the gunk to get to 15 joints that I would actually listen to again.
The second reason that gives me pause about this album is the subject matter. This dude speaks on everything from the Hermes Trismegistus, the Egyptian Book of the Dead, the Annunaki, The Emerald Tablets and back again. 98 percent of you have no idea what this stuff is and the rest of you don't care but I really dig what dude is saying about this esoteric and occult stuff. At least this was entertaining to me compared to the other crap that was released in February. 2013 ain't startin' out so hot for hip hop.
