One of (if not) my favorite movie of all time The 1985 Hip Hop Classic, Krush Groove ... this episode I tell you all about it!

Jadakiss is no doubt one of the most talented lyricists in Hip Hop history, in my opinion has the greatest catalog of features. Has he ever dropped what people would consider a timeless classic project/album? Lets talk about it

For reasons, Nas and Jay-Z will forever be mentioned together ... much like Pac and BIG, this episode we explore all things considered as the album count is near equal , who over the entirety of their run has the better music. What say you?

Hip Hop music in the 80s , especially after the "Roxanne Wars" when an emcee or group recorded a song it was not uncommon for another to record a response record often dissing the original songmaker, what I will do with this series is highlight some that you may not be aware of. This episode spotlights the LL Cool J's "Dear Yvette" and the subsequent response records it inspired. Let me know what...

What is your criteria for a flawless album? What constitutes a "skip"? My Question is can an album with skits and interludes be consider flawless because most times you would skip them? Lets talk about it

If you could only pick 5 albums to introduce someone to Hip Hop music, which would you choose? Someone who has never heard it before, and you want to show them what is is, should sound like, etc. We have our five, give us yours in the comments, twitter, and instagram @encyclopediaHH

Missy has hits on hits on hits, she appears on greatest female rapper lists, and other hip hop lists, but is she an emcee? Is she a dope rapper? Has she ever dropped a Hip Hop Album? I consider her a mega pop star, you could argue R&B, but lets talk about it.

Hip Hop STILL doesn't have a proper awards show, and it never has, the greatest of genre never got their just due and all of the classic emcees, songs, and DJs will never get their shine or love ... till now Im going back and giving the legends of 1988 their credit and just due ... roll with me. #87HipHopAwards #EHHPodcast #ApplePodcasts #HipHopAwards

I Wanted to shine a spot line on some of the women in rhyme who put in work in the 80s and early 90s who do not get a lot of attention or mention in Hip Hop conversations ... maybe you'll go back in revisit some of their work or discover where some of the current flows come from. This episode is legendary emcee Sweet Tee (Suga) listen and let me know what you think! @encyclopediaHH

Remember when Hip hop was supposedly dead? Remember when biting wasn't allowed? Remember when emcees rhymed only to be considered the best? Hip Hop and Hip Hop music used to be a fun escape ... it is no longer that, or dope; but I digress, and make podcast episodes. @encyclopediaHH
