Hip-Hop: January 2008 Archives

My fave hip-hop album of the moment is Bambu's "I Scream Bars for the Children". This is not exactly one of the stand-out tracks, but it's still way better than average. You might not guess it from this video, but Bambu is quite the social activist.

My friend Sean Lewis sent this YouTube video to me. It's a great homemade video and a shockingly heartfelt song. I'm a big fan of hip-hop songs that aren't about braggin', ballin', or bangin', mainly because they're so rare. This is somewhat about bangin', but mainly it's about Plies' love for his momma. What can I say? I relate.
