Shine Through It

CD-Charts > Music > Rap and Hip-Hop
by: Terrence Howard

Release Date September 02, 2008
My opinion may be biased because I just love this man. It usually takes me a couple of listens before I can really feel the music, but after only one listen, I realized that although Terrence's sound wasn't outstanding, it was something very gritty and different about this music. This album is interesting to say the least and I can feel him through the lyrics. With the artists that are out now, they all sound the same and Terrence's debut effort is refreshing and different. This will be in heavy rotation in my car for a very long time.

Fight With Tools

CD-Charts > Music > Rap and Hip-Hop
by: Flobots

Release Date May 20, 2008
This band performed with "Rage Against the Machine" here in Denver during the Democratic National Convention. At the end of the show, most of the 7000 people in attendence joined a march led by "Iraq Veterans Against the War." See The Ground Truth and Winter Soldier: Iraq and Afghanistan: Eyewitness Accounts of the Occupations for more on that movement.
It was a powerful scene, as a couple thousand other people joined in the march to the Pepsi Center where the Dems were gathering. After being faced with a phalanx of a few hundred Robocops ready to pounce on protesters, an Obama representative came out and received the letter from the members of IVAW.

I noticed that Amy Goodman of "Democracy Now!" reported on this peaceable assembly, and ... Read More:

Pro Tools

CD-Charts > Music > Rap and Hip-Hop
by: GZA

Release Date August 19, 2008
After all these years, being dope is synonymous with GZA. He has year by year and album by album produced innovative dope music. He is creative with the word play, knows how to deliver the rhymes and picked out some dope beats that fit the raw lyrics. With guest appearances of RZA, MASTA KILLA, and others adds to the superior lyrics of the genius. Pro tools is a solid album from beginning to end and is highly recommended to true hip hop fans.

Graduation

CD-Charts > Music > Rap and Hip-Hop
by: Kanye West

Release Date September 11, 2007
After experiencing disappointment with Kanye's previous effort of Late Registration, I had little to no expectations for this album. Of course, The College Dropout was an instant classic when released, but this album tops it. While Late Registration was spotty with the great and the outright bad, this album is a gem from start to finish. It's one of the few albums I can play all the way through without wanting to skip songs. The standouts (five out of five stars) of the album are "Good Morning", "Stronger", "Good Life", "Can't Tell Me Nothing" and "Flashing Lights". The rest are no less than four to four and a half stars. I think Kanye has finally found his style and groove and I can't wait for his next album.

If you enjoy hip hop, rap, Kanye, you probably ... Read More:

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

CD-Charts > Music > Rap and Hip-Hop
by: Lauryn Hill

Release Date August 25, 1998
This is what American music is...carved from her island style and fused with her street savvy, this album shines with everything Lauryn Hill was and is, and what she represents is an undying, unyielding spirit which recognizes the best and the worst of society and turns it into something to which everyone can relate. With funky beats and sweet, sweet melodies!

Rage Against the Machine

CD-Charts > Music > Rap and Hip-Hop
by: Rage Against the Machine

Release Date November 10, 1992
Probably the only rap-metal album that honestly qualifies as any good, and definitely the most violently liberal album I've ever heard in my life. Not like I mind, of course. But if you don't agree with the politics, it'll probably hurt your enjoyment of the album. Enough of that, though. The point is that this band is awesome. Especially guitarist Tom Mollero, who comes up with brilliant riffs throughout and throws in all kinds of innovative, crazy solos that don't sound like they're coming from a guitar. The solo on "Killing in the Name" sounds like it could've came from a synthesizer, for instance. The stuff he pulls on "Take the Power Back" sounds like turntable work or something, his solo on "Bullet in the Head" seems a lot like a clavinet, and the squeals on "Fistful of Steel" ... Read More:
