The Best of Underground Hip-Hop

My name's Jake Bourey, and I've dedicated a significant portion of my life to music and deciphering the science behind its beauty. As you can guess from my blog's title, I'm especially passionate about hip-hop. I post and review the best songs hip-hop has to offer, old and new. Most are in the “underground” genre, considering that’s where the vast majority of hip-hop's true art resides these days.

The overall goal of this blog is to educate the general public by exposing them to outstanding hip-hop songs and artists that they might have otherwise never known about. Many people don't realize the hip-hop universe is filled with countless beautiful gems that sadly remain completely hidden deep underground, buried by the overwhelmingly fake, watered down, and soulless music of the mainstream radio and music industry. “There's a war going on outside no man is safe from”, so do your part and help real hip-hop fight back against this overly popularized wackness and sellout mentality. Long Live True Audio Art! I also make mashups and I co-run Hip-Hop Revolutions.

Macklemore – The Club

Macklemore - The Club

Unlike 50 Cent’s dance classic In Da Club, this song is is solely about the club. His accurate, humorous, and in-depth description of the weekend night life illustrates a sad but true tgif perception that all weekenders can relate to. This is definitely far from the best song of his mixtape The Unplanned Mixtape (the best song being Church [ft. Geologic]), but it’s still one of the better song off of this exceptional Seattle release. It has an extremely unique sound, and the more you listen to it the more you appreciate it.

“Asians kicking with Asians
And the Latino’s are too beautiful
Wish I could confidently be like, “girl you don’t know what I would do to you”
Get her back to the pad and probably bust in my pants
She’d be like “ooh aah pappy”, I’d be like *ptt*… Sorry”
