Htown's Finest

I'm not usually one for rap or hip-hop. A friend of mine in Houston has been rapping for years, and when he told me he had an album out I was a bit hesitant.

 I must say, my ears were pleasantly surprised.
 
Think Lupe Fiasco meets Q-Tip with a touch of Jay-Z.

Right from the Intro, "Resilience" delivers. Good beats and catchy melodies throughout, complete with a sample of Cher's 'Gypsies, Tramps & Thieves." These boys make it work. I've been listening  to this album on repeat for a few days now.


Must Listens:

"Intro"
"Never With It"
"Be the Only One"
"Our Gospel"
"Out of Control"
