    Well if you start with his beat tapes you shoul deffinately listen to Clouds, Make Do
    Besides that he has great collabo albums like Trophies with OC (probably the best till now) and Dice Game with Guilty Simpson..
    Gas Mask with The Left was also great.. I think you'll find your way after those to dig deeper!

    GOOD music, Top Dawg Ent., Cash Money, Roc Nation, Shady Records, Interscope, Aftermath, Atlantic, Def Jam, Def Jux, Geffen... the list goes on for some of the more well known labels out there currently. Then you have the older but more prominent labels like Death Row, Bad Boy, Rawkus, Jive etc etc.

    So... which labels are your personal favourite from the past and present day?

    Open Mike Eagle - Dark Comedy
    Open Mike Eagle - A Special Episode of [EP]

    L'Orange - Old Soul
    L'Orange - The Mad Writer

    OME is a great rapper, very vivid just great imo. L'Orange is a producer who loves to sample old noir films with a bit of soul and just sounds cinematic, he has like 7-8 projects, but those two are his best work in my opinion.

    even the songs people claimed to be bad back then, were f---ing classics
