With this being the 50th anniversary of Hip Hop and all the bros figured it was time to put together a Top 50 list of some sort.

DBRP RETRO: NO NEED FOR ALARM

Dad Bod Rap Pod ·

2023/11/30

This is a dedication to you wack emcees...... Del's second album, No Need For Alarm, was a departure of sorts from his debut LP, I Wish My Brother George Was Here. Eschewing the Ice Cube/George Clinton funk aesthetic, Del went deep into his backpack and pulled a record for the ages. The head of the Hiero Voltron launched a full-scale attack on inferior rappers over raw no-nonsense beats. This week, the bros reflect fondly on an album that lives in their collective DNA.

Dad Bod Rap Pod ·

2023/11/16

Outkast is perhaps Hip Hop's closest corollary to the Beatles. Their musical journey, commercial success, and geographic origins (the south got something to say) make them a one-of-one rap group. On this week's episode the bros take a walk down memory lane and dissect Outkast's 25 year old classic album Aquemini.

DBRP RETRO: Doggystyle

2023/10/12

If you weren't outside then, it's difficult to comprehend how highly anticipated Snoop Dog's first album was. In the era before the internet, the buzz surrounding Doggystyle could have powered a major metropolitan area. The Dr. Dre industrial complex had already delivered The Chronic a year earlier, so there was a notion that with rookie of the year from Long Beach in tow, Doggystyle would be one for the ages. Now, with 30 years of hindsight, we ask the following question: Is this a timeless record

Freestyle Fellowship is not a rap group. They are a cohort of rap gods who descended from the mountains so that we might know the electric potential of rhyme. Inner City Griots, FF's second album, is a complex and challenging record that did not easily fit in any of the sub-genre boxes of its day. With 30 years of hindsight the bros take a look back Griots and ask the questions of all questions: Is this a timeless album or an album of its time?

Return of The Boom Bap means just that.... By the time 1993 rolled around KRS One was already a Hip Hop elder statesman.
