Nice list. Now that it is July, are we also going to get a halftime list of 2009 albums?
Definitely.
Pretty good list, but did you forget about unbelievable by Biggie?
Nice list but jay-z’s Izzo(HOVA) should defenetly b sumwere inda list n maybe kanye’s good life
Thank you Henry for puttin this list up. I was ready to ask for this list and I would figure that “It Ain’t Hard to Tell” would be number one. The track has so much energy and tribute to Jackson that it would bring a hardcore fan of his to tears. Nas really ripped that one up.
hova izzo is the worst song ever… that list was perfectly great!
(Thanks!) – Henry

Yo, i forgot to ask this but what is the name of the song that plays at the start of this video

- It sounds like a eminem song…is it?
(It’s Buckshot, most likely a song from the upcoming Buckshot/KRS-One album ‘Survival Skills’) – Henry
