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.

Brother Ali – Forest Whitaker

Brother Ali - Forest Whitaker

This song is a true hip-hop classic. It’s one of may all time favorite songs. Brother Ali has a very pronounced flow that consistently carries a strong emotional punch. He’s unarguably one of the realest rappers ever. If you’ve never heard of him before you should definitely check him out. Forest Whitaker is off of Brother Ali’s outstanding album Shadows On The Sun. Another really solid song from this album is Blah Blah Blah (ft. Slug).
