Download S.U.P.A. – The Expressionist.

I really love this kid’s mixtape because he brings me back to that old school 90′s hip hop feel. When hip hop was wildly diverse and often directionless, in the best sense of both words. I don’t think he intentionally made it have that vibe to it, but it does and it’s nostalgic and refreshing at the same time. Plus you all know how I feel about the 90′s. It doesn’t matter what category you look at; the 90′s were superior to the 00′s in every conceivable way. From entertainment to politics, from fashion to slang, there’s just no comparison. But especially music and more specifically, hip hop. I’m not sure if it’s ever going to get back to what it was. S.U.P.A. says it’s because they didn’t have a blueprint … hmm.. I might have to agree with that. What do you all think?

Anyway, back to the mixtape…it’s really good and I know you all are confident enough in my taste in music to trust that I’d never steer you wrong. I haven’t cosigned an artist yet that hasn’t turned out to be great. So download it now just so you can be able to say “I been up on this” when everyone else catches on ;] Let me know what you all think.

PS – Happy Earth Day ! Another excuse to listen to an epic MJ song/video. Lol. No but seriously, you all know how much I love the earth so take care of my baby <3

I usually don’t upload rough mixes but I’m going to break my rule and do so tonight because once again, I’m giving you all the opportunity to witness the making of something big with me…oorrr you can all hop on the bandwagon later when everyone else does and I’m saying ‘I told you so.’…again. (IE Budden, Drake, Cole.)

Ever since I called out Maryland a couple years ago on youtube for their atrocious taste in hip hop, one of the most popular questions I’m constantly being asked is “Who is the best artist in the DMV?” and my answer is consistantly erratic and indecisive. I’ve always aimlessly threw out names like Kendall Elijah, Los, Extra, Lyriciss, etc just to avoid saying the obvious, Wale. (Whom as you all know, I’m not particularly fond of.) All of them are niice, but I’ve been lying to ya’ll, the BEST rappers artists in the DMV are…..drumroll please…SUPA and Omega. There, I said it. Bold statement, eh? Well I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t make such gallant declarations. Don’t get mad, just prove me wrong.
