Album Notes & Community Reviews

'Hip Hop 50: Vol 1' was conceived as the inaugural installment of a massive, multi-release celebration commemorating five decades of hip-hop history. The legendary producer supplies his unmistakable, aggressive boom-bap architecture and elite turntablism to a roster of highly respected, veteran MCs. It serves as a deeply reverent, rhythmic homage to the genre's foundational East Coast origins.
