A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

All Ratings (173)

Time is illmatic

Dang, hit me with Illmatic and then follow it up with Food & Liquor? It's amazing to witness the creativity, sincerity, and focused messaging from a kid coming out of Chicago in the early-2000s with such finesse given the hip-hop environment at the time, and with great beats to boot. I even love the mad long outro credit roll. While it's not my absolute favorite from Lupe (Tetsuo & Youth still lays claim to that even among his latest releases), it is still quintessential Lupe and a staple in the conversation of "classic hip-hop records" and substantive, lyrical hip-hop.
