Uniforms: DJ Khaled hosting Michigan Basketball Jordan launch on 9/30

The only Jay Z albums I like  are Reasonable doubt and Streets is Watching.  I hate hate hate pop rap, and Jay Z has made nothing but pop rap since 99.  I don't consider him a goat or anywhere close to it.  Dude HAD skills on the mic, but he is washed up.  I never liked his beat selection, especially after he stopped working with DJ Premier.  Reasonable doubt is a classic though.  Lil Wayne is part of the wave of artists that destroyed the south for me.   I loved the down south funk of Geto Boys, Eightball and MJG, UGK and Outkast, there was a level of musicianship involved that the No limit's and Cash Money labels simply destroyed with their generic casio keyboard sounding garbage.  

Sorry, but I am a hip hop purist.  I'm from Indy but grew up in LA in the early 90's and was at the Good Life Cafe many a night, watching the true great mc's of our day rip mics.  A lot of these artists were light years better than these rappers who win the popularity contest.   There are still very good artists in hip hop.  The new Cold 187um album is probably album of the year in my opinion.  Napoleon the legend dropped 2 really dope madlib produced mixtapes, Sick Jacken dropped a dope dope album in Psychedelic.  I will give you that Jay Z is hip hop, but the rest of the Khaled album has some of the truley wackest artists in the game.
