disappointed.. but everyone is entitled to their own opinion.. so I won’t trip but what I will say is.. not putting rashad & confidence even in honorable mention was a huge mistake.

SirBiatch is right.

for the dicksuckers complaining : “what do you critize his list?” let me explain sth.

Primo’s list, from my perspective, shouldn’t be a list composed of LP coming from friends…we talk here about legacy. In five years time, 1O years time anybody landing on that blog page should be able to think : “it’s a list from Premo, if i want to show friends what hiphop is supposed to sound like (as would say AG) those albums are landmarks to the hiphop culture”.

all i am seeing here is compromise…to what? ask Premo, not me. someone said he is a DJ, so basically that DJ judges that from everything he has heard last year, the top 25 are from US.

where is the houselight? where does he show us the way?

again, check my previous posts, Premo’s personality speaks for itself. even though being down with the dope beat-making, he is loved by the mainstream (maybe not the industry but by the artists definitely yes). he has nothing to prove to himself or to us, he pulled the weight when needed and he makes us shut the fuck up.

however he has his addiction on being worshipped by all. for years i see his fan base spitting at Jay (for good reasons)but he still want his 5 min of shame on mtv with him.

on one hand he is complaining about the industry, on the other he sticks with the industry. so his dual personalities make him unique, but it’s easy to detect when he acted like an underground cat, or like someone who want to please the kings.

we are here on this blog interested in his underground side, and we are out of rage when we see lists like that which are not matching what we think legacy should be.

I’m not bad, not mad Preem. i have read your list, have forgotten it immediately. Unlike ur mixtape backs in the days, no one will share this with friends, so you won’t make history with it. hopefully for us you have made history, in a splendid manner, and this is ONLY what we will keep sharing with the next generations.

Make some noise for Preem, one love

The premo track was the only track I enjoyed from The Game’s album, it was a freaking R&B album!
How he puts Game’s album 20 places higher than Apathy’s which is lyrical and superior beat-wise…is beyond me.

DJ Doom – Temple of Doom (2011) and DJ JS-1 – No One Cares (2011) are two hardcore-straight-raw-pure-uncut boom bap albums yet you have the audacity and nerve to put Drake’s Take Care album on your list? That’s extremely odd,strange,and too suspect altogether. And what’s even more odd and strange is the major fact that Bumpy Knuckles,KRS-One,M.O.P.,O.C.,AG,Jeru Da Damaja,Slaine,and Ill Bill have their features spread throughout that DJ JS-1 album and Blaq Poet is on both DJ Doom’s and DJ JS-1′s albums and these are guys that Premo has worked with that are friends of his. Strange to say the least.

it’s a list people. it has no bearing on what you like or what he creates. it may influence his beats, but you would never know it when you hear one. it’s ironic that people say premier has no taste when in fact he clearly does for the fact that he makes incredible music. i think many of these comments come from people who only have a taste for one type of album. diversify, friends.

Damn, let Premier, a GROWN MAN, live.

He’s allowed to have a list like this if he wants. Mothafuckas is acting like he is wrong or incorrect or something. If Preem wants to bump the new Game album all year long more than any other album HE’S ALLOWED TO.

Make your own list if you got a problem with it. Some of y’all sound like 5 year old girls, straight up. Get off Preems balls.
