It’s clinically impossible to ever feel down bad when you’re listening to this album, you can ask a doctor actually. Siddhi is ICYTWAT’s debut into a new era of output, and it’s by far his most cohesive and introspective work to date as he covers fame, focus, and flexing everything in between. Every song is self-produced and full of ICYTWAT’S aggre...
2022 ushered in some tumultuous times, but it’s the little things in life that remind us that there is light at the end of the tunnel. For me, this was the outrageously sexually-charged, Cash Cobain produced 2 Slizzy 2 Sexy, which has got to be the funniest, horniest album of the year. Cash and Chow Lee go back-and-forth unapologetically pouring th...
If you showed a Victorian era child a Lil Shine song they would probably start hitting the dougie and spontaneously combust. Making huge waves on SoundCloud since he was 12, Losing Myselfis the peak of Shine’s artistry as he’s matured and perfected his sound with this debut album—all at the age of 17. As trendy as the PluggNB sub genre may be right...
If I were to have one project represent how fun rap music is today, this is probably the one. Every song is bass heavy, creating this druggy atmosphere that makes for some of the catchiest music you’ve ever heard. It’s really THAT fun. 1dada4ever introduces so much melody and changes his flow multiple times on each song, which not too many artists ...
Hi-C is highly regarded amongst the deepest chasms of the internet as far as digital-alt-emo aesthetics go, and for very good reason. V@st0@L0rd333is some of his best work yet, and a perfect example of the unrivaled uniqueness he introduces as an artist who has created a whole new sound for younger generations to follow. It’s psychedelic and dark, ...
The title is really fitting, because front-to-back this project really is the flex anthem of the year. I listen to this and get the most viscous urge to run my bands up. K$upreme has perfected his flow within the past couple of years, and in Sorry 4 Da Flex 3we find him refusing to let that energy go. Based out of California, he introduces a refres...
Hundreds of songs into his career, Robb Bank$ finds the space to be at some of his most personal and refined. He teased Falconiafor maybe 5-6 years, and it finally released to be everything anyone could have asked for and more. Fusing RnB samples and interpolations with influences from the world of Kentaro Miura’s Berserk, Robb takes us through his...
I feel like I gotta listen to this one in a trench coat in a damp alleyway. N2Deepplays just like its GoodFellas-esque cover art indicates: it’s a modern mob movie through the lens of Levi Carter. He’s confident, focused, and every song feels like he’s telling a critical story. Entirely cinematic, this album is dark and gloomy with some of Levi’s h...
In a society where it feels like the most genuine of geekers are nowhere to be found, Bbyafricka gave us some of the craziest energy with The Art of Geekin, and a 23-minute run time that actually feels like she could have kept going for as long as she wanted to. She’s raw, unapologetic, and above all else, one of the most entertaining artists makin...
This is a project you can either wind down or get buck to. An album for every mood, the world is your oyster. Leading the innovative rap boom happening in Norway, Flansie is a producer/rapper who has crafted his own unique sound, fusing distinct vocals amongst trippy production that refuses to let your attention drift away. Live2Die (Deluxe)feels s...

- Flo Milli, ‘You Still Here, Ho?’ When an album opens with a spoken-word preamble from the eternally underrated 2000s reality star Tiffany “New York” Pollard, you know it’s going to be a good one.
- “Plan B” - Megan Thee Stallion. Megan Thee Stallion has become a modern-day feminist icon for a number of reasons, including her work ethic, sex-positive swagger, and refusal to stay silent when faced with hate spewed from both the public and her Hip-Hop peers.

- "Munch (Feelin' U)" - Ice Spice. Ice Spice‘s “Munch (Feelin’ U)” exhibited the value of coming up with lingo that people will want to repeat. Flipping the colloquial term “eater,” the Bronx drill rapper displays how women can have men bending at their will.
- "BILLIE EILISH." - Armani White. Philadelphia’s Armani White has been rapping since 2017 but hadn’t gained widespread acknowledgment until the release of the viral song “Billie Eillish.”
150 select underground hip hop songs from 2022. Been digging all year to build this running list of 2022 joints. Shouts to PF Cuttin for his radio show, which put me onto quite a few of these. If I've missed anything, please drop a comment. Best of 2022.
