Pretty Much Amazing: The Mixtape II – Rap Acts You Are Allowed To Like

This mixtape is in response to the “5 Pop Acts You Are Allowed To Like” post I made earlier this week. The post was well received and I had some requests of making a rap version of it. Instead of picking 5 Rap Acts those Pitchfork fanboys are allowed to like without ruining their indie cred, here’s a mixtape of some of the great rap artists of recent times. I enjoy rap music, it great chill, angry, and mind bending music — wrapped together with a bow (err chain?) on top.

On this mixtape, you will find some Lil Wayne, Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, and others. What you WILL NOT find are those rap songs I like to call “ringtone rap”. “Ringtone crap”, rather. I’m talking about those extra catchy songs that seem to be made for simple minded people with a short attention span. You know and loath them alright; “Party Like A Rock Star”, “Crank That”, “Laffy Taffy”, “This Is Why I’m Hot”, ring any bells?

Mhm.

Now before we start this, I already admit this may be Kanye West beefed because, well I’m a hopeless Kanye sheeple, but you know what? Fuck Off
