No I haven’t forgotten my midwest efforts. This compilation series has been on the backburner for too long though. To any hip hop who’s not deaf and provincial, there is an absolute gold mine of hip hop that doesn’t originate near any coast, east, west or south for that matter. I’ve got 21 editions in this midwest series and these are volumes 6-9. Tune into these sounds from the heartland. I think you’ll like what you hear.
