I voted Professor Green because it's the only one I bothered listening to.

ASAP Rocky - LoveLiveASAP, by quite a distance.

Quality album
Same sword they knight you they gon' good night you with
Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas; see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified

The production on Soundtrack To The Struggle is really good.

Another good British hip-hop artist here.

That's like saying Hopsin and Charles Hamilton run the US scene. :laughing:

Most people don't know them.

Possessed's latest work is crazy...I've only heard his new shit when he was spitting alone for like 15 minutes lol...

Ain't heard nothing knew from the other guys...Next new shit I hear from Skirmish will be on my track...

As for the actual thread, I haven't been a fan of Lowkey since KTTG3, that's his best release in my opinion, with a few sick tracks on Dear Listener...

Since then I don't listen to him...He's become too political and raps about topics I can't relate to or really give a damn about...Plus I've noticed a lot of his new work is very repetitive, and in my opinion the only repetitive part of a Hip-Hop track should be the chorus...He spits 12 bars than repeats the last 4 bars on his verses...Not my kinda thing...That along with a lot of them are only 2 verse tracks...

That's alright if you're doing 24 bar verses, but not if your doing 2 16 bar verses with the same 4 bars on each...

Having said that I can't really think of a good album for this month...
