"The Mainstream is weak, the underground ain't dope no more!" Hip Hop is a surplus nowadays. So much music coming out... yet more than half of it will not be remembered. This site is dedicated to search through all Hip Hop and bring what we feel is the good stuff today. This isn't a website committed to bring you commercial rap or underground; this is strictly for the Hip Hop Heads. No bias regardless of popularity or abstractness. "Dope beats, Dope Rhymes, what more do ya'll want!"

eLZhi - ELmatic (Mixtape)
Normally I view these Illmatic tributes as disrespectful (for trying to remake a flawless classic), but I actually enjoyed this one. Slum Village member, Elzhi does a solid job in remaking Nas' 1994 debut. The cool thing about the project is the beats are all re-done by Will Sessions, a group of producers who play live instruments. Check the "Making of Elmatic" to see what I mean.
