100 Underrated Indie Hip Hop Songs of 2010

vinylpops · Post by **vinylpops** » Sat Jan 01, 2011 10:13 pm

WhiskeyTeeth.com & SteadyBloggin.com wanted to bring you 100 of the most underrated and overlooked independent hip hop recordings that dropped in 2010. There is a mixture of the experienced and the unknown within the collection, but the common ground they share is that they are all tracks that flew under the radar, didn't get a fair shake in the blogosphere, or were great songs that didn't get the props they deserved from fans and critics alike.

The 100 songs are split up into a four part download due to the 600+ MB size of the folder. Here is a list of the artists featured in the folders (Most of it is in alphabetical order):

aDaD & Exile, Aleon Craft, Atmosphere, Basic Vocab, Black EL, Black Milk, Blu, BMB (aka Spacekid), Celph Titled, Ceschi, Chuuwee, Cloudy October, Count Bass D, Debilorithmicos, Dela, Descry, Danny Brown, Dom Kennedy, Dr. Oop & Rogue Venom, Droop-E, ESQ, Earl Sweatshirt, Erik L & 7even:Thirty, Erik L & Illingsworth, Fashawn, Fel Sweetenberg, Freddie Joachim, Fresh Daily, Front Porch Poets, Gonjasufi, Incise, Intuition, Jermiside, JR & PH7, John Robinson, Junk Science, Kokayi, KON, KVBeats, Little Brother, MadKem, MaGr, Mally & The Sundance Kid, Maxilla Blue, MellowHype, Panacea, Poetic Republic, Quincy Vidal, Qwel & Maker, Raedawn & Main, Roq'y Tyraid, Miedlev, Moe Pope, Nemo Achida, Nocando, Nottz, Open Mike Eagle, Othello, Outasight, P.SO, Kenn Starr, Oddisee, MED, Random, Rugz D Bewler, Soul Professa & Roc C, Statik Selektah Sene, 7even Thirty, Shad, Shawn Jackson, Strong Arm Steady, Thaione Davis, The Burnerz, The Grouch, The Gent$, The NewOld, Truthlive, Finale, Ras Kass, 8thw1, Tyler the Creator, Von Pea, Writtenhouse, Young Gully, Zion I, and SkuFL.

Man, I really like these compilations. So many great tracks in there.
I was looking for year end east coast compilations and these ones delighted me. CCBlunts compilations are not for me. I appreciate the time and effort you put in to gather all these tracks. You made my day. Big up!

This is a great mix. Couple tracks border on corny, but that is to be expected from a mix like this. Favorite track has to be JR & PH7 - Hustle and Flow.

Some other standouts to me:
All the Intuition tracks
Random - Look Around
Earl Sweatshirt
Black EL - Sunday Drive
Truthlive tracks

Probably forgetting some and haven't listened to each one, but thanks for this.
