If you are asking for recommendations I can safely recommend anything Black Thought is involved in. One of the most underrated MCs out there. I really like Initiate’s take on hardcore music. This Chat Pile / Nerver split is as nasty and chunky as you’d have hoped. I didn’t even mention that Balance and Composure is back. Go check that out too.
