The Best Boom Bap album of June 2021 is.....

Peace and blessings.

I am truly thankful to join you again for another month and with further ado the best Boom Bap albums of June 2021.

There were more than six albums that I would classify as boom bap but there were only six very good ones in my opinion. Not enough for a top ten but that is not my problem or my fault. I only call it as I hear it.

Skyzoo came back with another joint for the summer with his album All the Brilliant Things. This is another great effort by one of my favorite emcees today, very solid album but the rest of the list had more dope joints in my opinion.

Curren$y came out of nowhere with another Jetlife album called Welcome to Jetlife Recordings. A good try by Curren$y and there are more than enough good songs to join the list but it feel short as the best album of the month.

One of the coldest and most under rated rappers Smoke DZA dropped his album in June called the Hustler's Catalog. Outstanding album by Smoke lot's a solid albums to occupy your mind especially with a little Girl Scout Cookie strain. It is a must listen joint and very close to the top but not quite there.

I am a fan of Young Old Droog but his previous couple of albums fell short to me because I am not a fan of his experimental left turns. On his new album TIME this dude might have dropped his opus. This is going to go down as that classic Droog album that will be spoken about for many years to come. 

This month may not have a large quantity of albums to chose from but the quality is amazing. 

The next album is a compilation joint produced by Peter Rosenberg titled Real Late. Rosenberg carefully selected artists whose skills and flavor really represent the golden age of hip hop in fresh new voices. I was expecting some bullshit but I must admit that I really respect Rosenberg's ear and vision with this album. You have to cop this joint.

Last but certainly not the least is a boom bap album tour de force. I was never really a fan of this cat who has been in the game for a long time, mostly because of his affiliation G-Unit. 

I never thought he was a bum but he was never someone I checked for, but for June of 2021 this dude set the world on fire. The Best Boom Bap album of June 2021 is the Course of the Inevitable by Lloyd Banks.

I never gave Lloyd credit for being a real spitter. I mean his flow was ok but he was never the cat that I listened to over and over to catch the dope word play. This album floored me. Not only is the music the most New York City sounding album of the entire year but the bars are ridiculous. 

I have to apologize to you Lloyd Banks, you are official my dude. Props to you for releasing this masterpiece album and I hope everyone who loves hip hop gets a listen to some real dope original rap from NYC.
