You saw the list yesterday, right? You couldn’t have missed it. Most loved it, others disagreed – but hey, that’s what is beautiful about hip-hop.

FSD x Complex Magazine Present: The 50 Greatest Chicago Rap Songs
FSD has partnered with the King of Internets Lists, Complex Magazine, to present the 50 Greatest Chicago Rap Songs. Vainglorious! As you can imagine, this was no easy feat, and it was tough to lock in only 50 (as we could’ve without doubt gone for 100), but between both camps we were able to agree…

Boardroom feat. Big Wiz – BR Music
Boardroom = Mike 100s + Vic Lloyd + Jeff Jones + Tony Baines (Not Pictured) As part of 100s 30 for 30 series, he drops a heater from the now defunct foursome, Boardroom. I always dug the Boardroom, and maybe they’ll get the band back together at some point. Either way, this one knocks and…
