So, I’m really feeling all the tunes on this mix right now. I’ve got no idea why but I’ve been in a very hip-hop mood the past month. Hence these latest 2 O’Pinionated installments.
Yes, I confess, Track #2 by Super Chron Flight Brothers, is in fact a repeat and was featured on an earlier O’Pinionated Mix (if anyone is paying this close attention to my mixes, I guess I’m surprised, beyond flattered, and perhaps even a little bit concerned). Well, what can I say it is that good. And I will definitely keep pumping it for years to come.
…As is the case with everything else on this mix. Mostly newer rap by acts that were new to me in the aughts, but now already on repeat and much beloved – (Oddisee, Hell Razah, Modill, Binary Star, Knux etc.) Also some lifers who kept kickin it the way that I like it, well past the 90′s (PE, Masta Ace, Fatlip and Aceyalone).
And how is it again that I like it?
Say it with me: I like it 2 bougie 2 strong… 2 bougie 2 strong… 2 bougie 2 strong…
