Cheers! This Is Liquor For Your Ears( Xmas Special)

From There To Here... Presented by Mick Boogie- Outasight- 2009

The ex- Employee Of The Year(Outasight) brings us more of his edgy, soulful mix & match sing-rap, laid back wordplay in this second mixtape. With the help of producers like 6th sense, Cook Classics, Dante Lewis, lyricists like The Kid Daytonna, Print & vocalists like Tunji, OU has managed to come off as quite the musical craftsman. The plethora of samples used in the tape will had me longing for that good ol' Hip- Hop flavor. With tracks like "2-0-0-9" & "Rollin Wit Me" he kicks the attitude up a notch while still managing to mellow out the tape with "Darling, It's Chemistry" & "I Can't Call It".Overall, From There To Here's fusion of jazzy tunes & vocal play is undoubtedly a must have for fans of the Hip-Hop/Soul movement.

2Dopeboyz, Illroots & HipHopDx Present Broken Headphones- QuESt- 2009

QuESt really opens up in this last mixtape. His lyrics seem to be home of such honesty that even if you don't find the music to your taste, you'll learn to listen to the easily relatable themes. Fast paced songs like "I Need To Go" & "Today As Yesterday" had ma nodding before I even knew it but the slower paced ones like "Pieces", "Wait" & "Forever"had me reevaluating my relationships (family,friends& others. To sum it up, Broken Headphones' melodies will pull you in. It's the perfect occasion to re-evaluate your relationships of whatever nature they may be.

Mick Boogie's 1988- Adele- 2009

Mick Boogie does it again. Sampling track from adele's 19, Boogie's 1988 Brings a Hip-Hop twist to the grammy award winning songstress' performence. MB teams up with the likes of 6th Sense, nVMe, Naledge , Remot, KickDrums, Big Pooh & Garbs to bring us that phenominal - tell your mother you're in the bathroom so she doesn't bother you- kind of music. No doubt one of my favorite mixtape of the year, I just can't get enough of 1988, and highly recomend it to fans of Adele & Hip-Hop.

LRG Presents Back To The Feature- Wale & 9th Wonder- 2009

I didn't really notice the extent of Wale's talent until I listened to this mixtape. The accent collaborations make every track that much different from each other. No doubt Wale's got the potential to be a great lyricist. Hopefully he'll grow well in the arms of Jay's Roc Nation label. With the help of K'Naan, Duffy(sampled), Yael Naim(sampled) & many more, "Back To The Feature" is Wale's best bulk of work to date. I'd ask all the avid Hip-Hop lovers to take a listen to the newcomer's latest project.
