23 mixes with songs by “Grandmaster+Flash+and+the+Furious+Five”

If I had to introduce someone to hip hop for the first time, these are some tracks I would want him/her to listen to. This is me trying to keep it short by the way. Sorry if a 59 track list is too much but this is all good shit. The tracks are in no particular order.

"i can't control what people think. i'm not trying to manipulate people's thoughts or sentiments. i write all the time. you have to experience life, make observations, and ask questions. it's machine-like how things are run now in hip-hop, and my ambitions are different."

| my essential list of real hip hop by real rappers in it for the music and the culture, not just the paycheck and mainstream success.

19 hip hop songs that were popular once upon a time.

15 tracks including music by Salt-N-Pepa, Cypress Hill, & Skee-lo.

The term "protest song" was coined in the 1960s when artists in the United States began protesting the Vietnam War through their music. However, long before the 1960s music has been challenging injustices and bringing to light political issues and movements. Music became the means to bring about social change, anthems to unite those victimized and suppressed, and challenges to the government status quo.

A gift from me to you. From the old school to the new school. From the east coast to the west side and down to the dirty south, even passing through Brazil. Including 31 sick tracks by, The Notorious B.I.G, Lupe Fiasco and Tyler the Creator, for the price of none.

Forty classic Hip Hop tracks from old school hip hop artists as well as more current artists with a retro style, tracks include music by De la Soul, A Tribe Called Quest & Wu-Tang Clan.
