Haha nice! That Mykology album is fantastic! One of my favorites. And I don't doubt KP took some inspiration from it, I seen him hanging with Myka around that time a lot and know there is a lot of mutual respect between those two. No surprise to me since IMO, KP is the most consistent talent from the entire Wu fam.
The Myka/Factor projects are always pretty good and I think Sovereign Soul was my favorite so far but you didn't list it in this dump.
Myka/Slippers was an interesting project and there was a bigger project that came out of that would have been incredible if it materialized the way I imagined it could. I think it was originally supposed to be a Supergroup kind of project with Slippers music and a bunch of MCs like Acealone, Self Jupiter, Orko Eloheim and a bunch of others I can't remember right now. I think it ended up turning into a few separate albums like this High Maintenance Jackson and Acey's MARS album instead. Probably way too many heads and styles to organize into one cohesive album/project.
I really like the Myka/Profound(RIP) album you started the list with. One of my favorites from Myka's more recent releases.
Going back to consistency, Above The Law is one of the greatest and most consistent groups EVER, imo. 187um's production work is flawless and way ahead of his time (he is the mostly uncredited creator of G-Funk). Shame that KMG left us early too but 187um along with Kokane have been holding down that sound for decades with no significant drop in quality ever. Along with the Geto Boys, they have never released anything wack. Some albums are not as consistent as others but every release has top notch tracks guaranteed.
Ras Kass is another one of those super consistent MCs. I haven't checked all of his recent releases but like Planet Asia, I think they put out too much for the (lack of) style they have. Not a bad thing but I start to lose interest, especially in PA...I don't think he has ever done anything better than his early work around the time he was still actively working with Rasco as the Cali Agents. Ras Kass though, I will still check for because he still comes with impressive lyrics and content somewhere within the mass of content he puts out there.

i honestly never knew kokane was in that group Not officially but he is connected to ATL like The D.O.C. is connected to Dre and NWA. Basically, you hear him all over ATL albums and there is no need to say "featuring Kokane" because yeah, he's part of the crew. |

I get it tho, purists aint tryna hear they favs go pop... I loved it as a kid. Almost as much as I loved the 1st one. Almost. Ahh, the AZ one. I remember those albums from him around that time felt like he found his niche in the modern boom bap lane. Some of my fav joints from him on those few releases... dude was always amazing. Held his own on joints w the god, thats sick. And Ras Kass, where do I begin smh?! If not THE, then one of the best writers AND punchline emcees from the west to me. Shame his albums never really clicked w me beatwise. The individual joints tho. Crazy. Strong Arm Steady. I need to play ...Stoney Jackson again. Now. |

yo ern i see you got the 2 early albums by koncept. i was a big fan of him for awaken. never heard the other one, but probably would tbh. he was dope til he sold out and became champagne konny on ig and literally starting rapping about only champagne and moved to korea to be a celebrity lol. i swear you couldn't write a goofier script for that fuhko but props to him for finding that type of success if that's what he was going for. i know he severed ties with brown bag all stars. audible doctor and j57 still holding it down. i give props to soul khan for coming out of the closet and still doing his thing on the battle circuit. dude has an awesome rap voice. just needs to drop a real album for the people.
