Alcuni giorni fa Dj Premier, sul suo blog, ha stilato la classifica dei migliori 25 album hip hop del 2010. Non mancano le sorprese.

Strong Arm Steady – In Search of Stoney Jackson02. DJ Premier Presents Year Round Records – Get Used To Us01. Ghostface Killah – Apollo Kids
Si tratta, ovviamente, di una lista comprendente una serie di lp giudicati dallo stesso Primo particolarmente degni di nota. Il suo giudizio, infatti, si basa sulle caratteristiche tipiche della musica hip hop, sulla qualità del prodotto e non sulle vendite.
I judge my list based on dope beats, dope rhymes, scratchin’ and cutting, creativity, uniqueness, originality, and overall packaging of the product’s integrity. I don’t care if you sold a million copies, that does not make it dope. I went through more than 60 LP’s released in ‘09 on major and indie labels over and over to get it as close as i possible could to being satisfied with the list so here it is along with the list.
Notare, non a caso, come a termine della lista Dj Premier chieda scusa a Kanye West, Nas, Eminem e Talib Kweli per non avere inserito i loro lavori all’interno della top 25 per il 2010.
Sorry Kanye West, Nas, Eminem & Talib Kweli.
