2024-07-24T00:02:00.000-04:00

This album, right here? This jawn is EASILY one of my fave hip hop albums EVER! I truly believe that if this dropped back in '95 on Pete's Soul Brother Records when it was supposed to, that more folk would be talking about this jawn the same way I do. So if you've never heard this, start diggin and you might be lucky enough to find an OG copy of it but in the mean time, bang out to some of the dopest instrumentals that Pete Rock ever blessed us with!

I know A LOT of cats who to this day try to front on Mr. Timberlake and I'm totally lost how that's even possible. Yeah, I get the whole N'Sync boy band thing but that ish was over 10 years ago. And since then dude has dropped 4 albums and 2 of 'em (Future Sex & 20/20 Disc 1) get 5 mics from me and other two are EXTREMELY dope. All I can say is this, if you're still sleeping on Justin after bangin' out to my "Mr. JT" mixtape then you're just dumb, deaf AND blind.

If you've ever checked out any episodes of my podcast the Writer's Bench then you already know that Joe Budden is always a controversial topic on the bench. Why?

Deal of The Decade 2010-2019 Mixtape

2024-03-15T12:38:00.000-04:00

At the top of the year, we did an ep of my podcast Apt. 5B saluting the last decade of music. Our top 5 albums, slept on album, the dopest MC and the dopest producer of the last decade and when we got to the producer segment of the show it was a no brainer for me that the dopest producer of the last 10 years has been Alcehmist. I personally believe he's been the dopest producer since the new millennium if we're being honest. The funny thing is I know A LOT of folk who disagree with me on my ALC pick and trust & believe, I of ALL people know music speaks to us all differently BUT I truly believe that most folk don't know and realize how much DOOOOOOOOOPE music ALC has his fingerprints all over this past decade. From doing beats for Dilated Peoples, Benny the Butcher and the ENTIRE Griselda crew, Currensy & Freddie Gibbs to Sean P, Roc Mari, Royce, The Step Brothers (him & Ev), Gangrene (him & Oh No) and not to mention all of his dolo projects he dropped! So bang out to my "Deal Of A Decade" mixtape & THEN try to tell me that someone else held down the past decade the way Al did!
