Description:
There is one thing that Dr. Dre has been known for having a rare talent with since the beginning, other than producing, and that one thing is being able to spot a young artist with that special something before other labels do, and then get him or her signed to his Aftermath record label. Everyone thought that Dre was crazy for signing some wacky, skinny white dude that rapped about things like suicide, trailer parks and excessive drug use, but nearly a decade later Eminem is one of the best selling hip hop artists of all time. This case is no different, but now it's back to the mighty West Coast for one of the least-known monst
There is one thing that Dr. Dre has been known for having a rare talent with since the beginning, other than producing, and that one thing is being able to spot a young artist with that special something before other labels do, and then get him or her signed to his Aftermath record label. Everyone thought that Dre was crazy for signing some wacky, skinny white dude that rapped about things like suicide, trailer parks and excessive drug use, but nearly a decade later Eminem is one of the best selling hip hop artists of all time. This case is no different, but now it's back to the mighty West Coast for one of the least-known monster talents of underground hip hop right now, Bishop Lamont! Signed to Aftermath records in early 2006, after appearing on the soundtrack to the video game "True Crime: Streets Of L.A.", as well as Warren G's "In The Midnite Hour" album, Bishop has made a big entrance into the game and he isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Beat wizard Dr. Dre and West Coast mixtape king DJ Skee, come together on this banger of a mixtape, showcasing a sick tracklist of all-new Bishop material that is just what fans have been drooling for, and the KKK-killer theme of "N*gger Noize" is keeping things ever-controversial just as West Coast gangsta rap ought to be. Don't sleep on this one playaz, the West is back up in ya! [17 Tracks]
