With Hip-Hop heading popular music today its interesting to see where the future of Hip-Hop is headed. Then again Kanye hasn't made a Hip-Hop album since Graduation and it feels like the only guys left are the original bad boys of hip hop like the WU-Tang Clan and Jay-Z. Not to mention alot of underground artists that aredoing wel like El-P and Slug from Atmosphere who now runs the record label Rhymesayers.
So where is the young talent at? Who are the guys dominating the charts within a couple years? The post I made before this about Lyn Charles got the gears turning around this question. I thought it might be cool ,since there are people actually following this blog now, to give away some cool (and more importantly) free music. So I'm changing lanes on this one. I'm going try and have nothing but mix tapes featured on here beginning with the recently signed Yelawolf.
Yelawolf is from Alabama and a lot of his songs on his mix tape Trunk Muzik (2010) are accompanied by the twang that we love in the south. This is for your car and is meant to rattle the trunk. This is a great mix tape and a good artist to keep an eye as one might tell from the guests on the mix tape. Names like Gucci Mane and Raekwon. My favorites are "Box Chevy Pt.3" and "Speak Her Sex".Having just signed to Shady Records in Detroit unlikely that this guys records will be heard for free anymore, but until the next one drops enjoy Trunk Muzik (2010).
