Also, as sick of hearing it as I am, I'm surprised mgmt "electric feel" didn't make the cut. And I shouldn't be, I'm surprised there isn't something other than pop and the pop that claims to be hip hop on here. No 80's ("relax" by Frankie goes to Hollywood comes to mind), no good hip hop (the roots, common, talib kweli, etc), no punk or hardcore, and nothing from the "alternative" culture or dance (junior senior, metric, daft punk) - 12/7/2011 10:20:14 AM
