thanks to blue scholars and common market for setting up the stage in 2005.

Uh, u didn't mention Fresh Espresso. Best hip hop in the city.

@Lar, yes there was, back to the 80's & 90's & early 00's but it was BS/CM that got the party started for this current generation of new hip hop heads.

they made local hip hop acceptable to the new kids who are now at shows all round the city.

Go back to bed, Meinert.

Nice writeup, definitely another huge year for 206hop. And was it just me or was 2010 amazing for rap on the national tip? Kanye, Big Boi, Spitta, Cudder, Flocka, even cats like Yelawolf, Odd Future, Das Racist etc. on a smaller scale.

One thing you did forget to mention though? Kevin Collabo. GOT DAMN. It's almost criminal that some of those heaters aren't recorded or downloadable or something.

Tribal Music and JMG would be proud, eh?

In just one more week I'll be able to say, "OFWGKTA is so 2010".

Can't wait.

No mention of Cloud Nice's crew?
