L’Entourage

I was curiously obsessed with French hip-hop in my middle school days, but I recently resurrected that hobby with a little help from thirteen-man posse L’Entourage.

Listen To: Iggy Azalea

Broken record: I LOVE hip-hop; this includes everything from old school head-banging N.W.A. to the twisted lyrical modernism of Tyler the Creator.  While we’re on the subject, I want to express my utmost respect for female rappers who must take massive risks to earn respect in a certain section of the music industry that remains social and … Continue reading
